Itinerary

Stop At: Phou Khao Khouay National Bio-Diversity, Vientiane Laos
We will be transferred from Vientiane to Ban Hatkhai, where a long-tail boat takes us up stream on the Nam Mang, before continuing along one of its tributaries, Houay Xai. A 2 hours trek passes through an evergreen canopy as we gain height. A picnic lunch is served on the way.
The magnificent pair of waterfalls Tad Xay and Pha Xay, particularly beautiful during and after the rainy season are reached in the afternoon. You have some free time at Tad Xay which has a pool recommended for bathing.
From here, a truck takes the group to Ban Hatkhai, where the night is spent in a home-stay.

Day 2: Ban Hatkhai to Tad Leuk to Vientiane
Stop At: Phou Khao Khouay National Bio-Diversity, Vientiane Laos

We will have lunch at Tad Leuk.
In the afternoon, the trek follows a path along the Nam Leuk to the Tad Sang (Elephant Waterfall) waterfall, another idyllic place for bathing and relaxation. Along the way, a large number of orchids can be seen, especially in wet season. From here, we return to Vientiane by songthaew.
