  • Luang Prabang
    Our evening feasting tour of 15+ tastings invites guests on a culinary experience around the historical city of Luang Prabang. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of professional Laos food guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, & the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian diets sorry, as there would be 4-5 less tastings. ✓ Suitable for mild gluten & lactose intolerances, but we advise against ✖️ celiac disease, as there are traces of gluten in 3-4 tastings with unavoidable soy sauce. ✔ Pork & beef is used at a couple of places where there's no alternatives, though the guest won't go hungry if either meat is their only restriction. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies & halal, due to risk of traces & cross-contamination. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!
  • Luang Prabang
    Meet our food-obsessed host, as we crunch into riverweed crackers and hmong mushroom dip, before an saffron orange-robed monk invites us for an open floor chat to discover about their unique lifestyle in Luang Prabang. After a short blessing, we'll hop foot to the Mekong, as sun sets over the riverside eateries, with plates of pun pa grilled fish served with a bundle of fresh herbs and vegetables.
  • Luang Prabang
    As night falls over Luang Prabang, the true flavours of the city come alive. The air fills with the scent of sizzling charcoal-grilled meats and piquant papaya salads. Go it alone though and you'll merely scratch the surface of Laotian cuisine. On our nightly moveable feast, a local food guide will take you far beyond the tourist menus. We’ll graze our way by foot through family owned joints, local favourites, and back-alley markets. Expect 15+ tastings - from steamed catfish in banana leaf, to herb-packed Lao sausage, beef platter and a cold beer Laos, and charcoal-fired khao piak sen noodles in pork broth, among many more surprises. It’s everything you need to get a real taste of Laos. This is the side of Luang Prabang that restaurants won’t show you. Come hungry.
  • Luang Prabang
    A short tuk-tuk ride takes us a 60 year-old dessert shop, whose recipes are a closely guarded family secret, passed over generations.
