Luang Prabang

A UNESCO World Heritage site, Luang Prabang is a city of ancient temples, French colonial architecture, and vibrant markets. Your guide can lead you to iconic sites like Wat Xieng Thong, the Royal Palace Museum, and the Kuang Si Waterfalls—and then show you their favorite hidden spots.
