Overview
EXPLORE CHOMPHET DISTRICT ACROSS THE MEKONG
Meet your guide early morning and get sized up on one of our quality mountain bikes. Ride a short distance to the Mekong River where we'll board a ferry to cross the river. On this tour – our newest tour opposite side of the Mekong River – you’ll meet villagers, see animals roaming and try local snacks along the way.
We'll ride a looping circuit about 20km (3 hours) medium biking on dirt roads with some hills. There is a good amount of shade along the way and you will feel like you are miles away from Luang Prabang with the absence of other tourists and traffic.
Look back on Luang Prabang from the river. We then ride on gravel roads passing rice fields and amazing views. We stop in a village and try local snacks and observe village life happening around us. We continue on single tracks passing farmlands and animals. Make sure your camera is charged for all the stunning photos you will take.
We stop again in another village for cold drinks and watching locals going about their business. After exploring on single tracks a little longer we hit the tarmac a short while to the ferry. We have lunch in a local restaurant near the ferry landing and your guide is with you every step of the way.
This tour can be a challenge for non-experienced mountain bikers and is rated easy to medium, hilly with short climbs (250m elevation gain).
Note:
- For our join-in tour, the minimum booking requirement is 2 people. Our team will notify you if additional participants join the group.
