Let Laos' gentle culture and stunning countryside captivate you

Landlocked Laos is the least visited out of its Southeast Asian neighbours, but its small, enchanting cities, gentle culture, and lush, unspoiled scenery should definitely not be overlooked. Let us take you there with all the style, luxury and local expertise that Jacada can bring; your bespoke itinerary can feature as much or as little as you like, and you can easily combine Laos with Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, and beyond for a well-rounded trip.

Tranquil Luang Prabang is set on the banks of the Mekong River and captures the heart of every traveller that visits the old French-influenced city; visit its gilded, picturesque Buddhist temples and rise early to witness the daily procession of saffron-clad monks collecting alms from the local residents. Venture out into the jungle on an elephant trek, and head off the beaten track into the north to stay in one of our favourite rainforest lodges, set in a village by some hot springs. In the sleepy capital Vientiane, spend time wandering past French colonial mansions and watch a fiery sunset over the Mekong. Pre-Angkor ruins draw travellers to Don Daeng and Champasak in southern Laos, while the Four Thousand Islands of the Mekong offer the ideal setting in which to truly unwind and maybe spot the rare pink dolphin.

  • The massive gold-covered Pha That Luang stupa in Vientiane, a landmark for luxury Laos holidays.
  • Longtail boats moored at the base of limestone cliffs near Pak Ou Caves, part of luxury Laos holidays.
  • A red tuk-tuk travels down a quiet street lined with traditional houses during luxury Laos holidays.
  • Assorted grilled meat and fish skewers served on green banana leaves, a taste of luxury Laos holidays.
  • The white and gold facade of the Royal Palace Museum in Luang Prabang during luxury Laos holidays.
  • Silhouetted boats on the Mekong River at sunset with mountain backdrops during luxury Laos holidays.
  • Three monks wearing orange robes cross a rustic bamboo bridge, a serene scene from luxury Laos holidays.
  • Ornate tiered roofs of Wat Xieng Thong temple in Luang Prabang, a stop on luxury Laos holidays.

A word from one of our experts

Laos is a real hidden gem where ancient Buddhist temples sit alongside elegant colonial buildings, all set against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty. Kayak up the Mekong River and trek to spectacular waterfalls one day, then while away the hours sipping the superb local coffee and watching the world go by the next. I truly recommend Laos for a laidback, rural adventure.

When to visit Laos

Although this is a year-round destination, the best time to visit Laos is during the months of November to April. This period offers warm days and cool nights along with clear skies and lower humidity, making it ideal for exploring the country’s natural beauty and engaging in outdoor activities. The temperatures are generally mild, although cooler in the northern regions, making it comfortable for sightseeing and trekking.
