Shrouded in a mystical air and layered with years of ancient history, Laos will transport you back in time to gold gilded temples, Buddhist ceremonies and quaint fishing villages. Laced with post-colonial European charm, Laos boasts an atmosphere of wealth and tradition whilst being surround-ed by untouched paradise. Your journey will take you through the ‘Million Elephant’ Kingdom, it will immerse you in sacred ceremonies such as the Tak Bat and lead you on a secret river cruise to rural villages with Ramayana dancing and magical folk tales. With everything from cascading waterfalls, jungle hiking, Na Song River kayaking and frozen cave exploring, Laos offers you both peace and excitement in equal measures. Each hotel adds to this lacing of peace and excitement; whether wandering through the secret gardens of the Rosewood Hotel or whipping across the island of Done Daeng on a bike, the marriage of harmony and thrill is ever prevalent.
