2 Day Trek & Homestay in Nong Khiaw & Cultural Activities & Tadmok waterfall

This tour takes you through the beautiful mountainous jungle in Nong Khiaw for a focused homestay and cultural experience. The first day of trekking is designed to be short so that guests can spend more time in the multi-ethnic village where they can learn about local loom weaving, fishing, Lao massage, bamboo basket weaving, and the Baci Ceremony. Highlights are the overnight stay at a multi-ethnic village, trails along great landscape with trekking through bamboo forests. On the second day, an amazing trek and visit to Tadmok waterfall brings you to the Nam Ou River to conclude the tour with a scenic downriver boat ride back to Nong Khiaw.

About the Clay School:

• The clay school was built by 54 international volunteers who traveled to Laos in 2011, and local community members of Na Luang. The structure is made of clay (only the floor and columns are made of cement for structural purposes) from the ground on which the school was built, and the exterior was painted white to abide by local law. The clay school replaced the original bamboo and wooden school that was in disrepair, and now provides a better learning environment for the local school children of Na Luang village.
• Books, pencils, desks and other school materials were graciously donated by travelers and volunteers.
• Tiger Trail can arrange a visit to the school during your tour, but please note that the visit depends on the availability of the village leader and the school teachers. We do not want to disrupt classes (if your visit is during the school year)
