Join our most exclusive 12-day Southeast Asia journey personally led by the founders of Brother Tours. This is more than a tour—it’s a rare invitation into the heart of Laos, personally hosted by the founder and co-founder of Brother Tours.
(9 Days / 8 Nights Main Trip + Optional 3-Day / 2-Night Post-Extension)
This is more than a tour — it’s a rare invitation into the heart of Laos, led by the very people who helped shape its modern travel story.
This nine-day cultural journey, personally hosted by the Founder and Co-Founder of Brother Tours, offers an insider’s perspective that no guidebook can replicate. You’ll walk paths few outsiders have walked, hear powerful stories of war, resilience, and transformation, and engage with communities through authentic, respectful connection.
In Xiangkhouang Province, you’ll explore one of Laos’ most enigmatic and emotional sites — the Plain of Jars, a mysterious ancient archaeological landscape still being studied today. You’ll also step into the echoes of the Vietnam War, visiting remote villages and listening to on-site expert lectures that reveal the devastating impact of the “Secret War” — a chapter of global history that much of the world has forgotten, but that continues to shape lives here.
From the golden temples and royal palaces of Vientiane, to the haunting beauty of Xiangkhouang, the tribal highlands of Oudomxai, and the sacred calm of Luang Prabang, every moment is curated to immerse you in heritage, humanity, and wonder.
You’ll share homegrown tea with families who once depended on opium, trek hidden nature trails or unwind in a jungle spa, cruise the Mekong at sunset, and receive blessings in a soulful Baci ceremony.
This journey isn’t about checking boxes.
It’s about feeling the soul of Laos — through the people who live it, love it, and are ready to share it with you… personally.
Bangkok, Thailand.
Two departures per month, per host, from October to March.

Dear Traveler,
If you’re reading this, you’re not just looking for a tour — you’re seeking something deeper.
You want to feel a place, not just see it.
You want to connect with people, not just pass them by.
And that’s exactly what we’re here to offer.
Welcome to our Founder-Hosted Signature Journeys — a rare collection of small-group cultural experiences personally led by me and the co-founders of Brother Tours. These are limited-edition, story-rich journeys through Laos and Southeast Asia, crafted from our lives, roots, and passions.
This isn’t a pre-packaged itinerary — it’s an invitation to walk beside us, hear our stories, meet our families, and discover a side of Southeast Asia most travelers never get to experience.
In a world of mass-market travel, these journeys are intentionally intimate — just 6–8 guests per departure, with 12 tours per host each year.
Every moment is designed to immerse you in the living culture of Laos and beyond: sacred rituals, tribal communities, hidden war histories, lush landscapes, and the quiet magic of daily life.
You’ll join us on river cruises, language classes, village meals, storytelling circles, and ceremonies we grew up with — not because it’s in a brochure, but because it’s a part of who we are.
This journey is for the curious, conscious traveler — the kind who values connection over convenience, meaning over checklists, and stories over selfies.
It’s for:
✨ Couples, solo travelers, and small groups seeking something real
📸 Photographers, educators, artists, and cultural explorers
💛 People who want to travel with heart, not just haste
🔍 Anyone who has ever asked, “What’s the story behind this place?”
We created these journeys to share the parts of Laos and Southeast Asia we love most — not just the landmarks, but the lives behind them.
If that calls to you…
We’re ready to host you.
Reach out to us to receive your full itinerary and join a friendly Zoom welcome call where we’ll personally guide you through the experience.
With heartfelt thanks,
Ken FJ Her
