Option 1: 1 day trip
We depart from Green Discovery Office in Luang Prabang for a transfer to kayaking starting point at the village of Ban Nam Ming, about 2 hours drive south of Luang Prabang. The Nam Ming River makes its way through a steep sided forested valley. Its riverbanks are covered with a canopy, often consisting of old trees - the ideal habitat for a wide variety of birds. There are some fun rapids before the Nam Ming feeds into the Nam Khan.
In the afternoon, a beautiful spot with and cold springs is perfect for bathing and relaxing. We spend more time for paddling passing by villages, set in a landscape featuring rugged limestone mountains trip until we meet Done Mo, where a pick-up awaits for transfer to Luang Prabang.
