What To Expect

Luang Prabang
Our driver for the morning will pick you up from your hotel in Luang Prabang where you may join other ‘rice enthusiasts’ before heading out into the rural landscape of charming Laos. The ride is a short one, and you may see the abundance of green already from a distance (season depending). This educational and family-orientated half-day journey into the rice paddy fields takes place all around a local farm, specializing for generations in the art of rice farming and cultivation. A local English-speaking guide will welcome you and will be your host for the morning. The process from seed until they reach your plate in a cooked or fried version are said to take 14 different levels, and all this, and more, is explained and showed during these 3.5 hours of learning the fine art that surrounds Laos' stable food.
