Yoga and Therapeutic Trek in Luang Prabang

Pick Up Time: A MandaLao driver will pick up guests from hotels and guesthouses and transport to The Nahmkhan Resort. Please wait at the lobby of your  hotel/guesthouse at 07:15 and look for a MandaLao staff member.

Arrive at The Namkhan Resort for Yoga Class 08:00 – 09:00am: Reconnect with nature and yourself in body, mind, and spirit, with a peaceful morning yoga session with sound therapy. This class, located along the banks of the Nam Khan River, is open to all levels, ensuring that everyone can participate. Experience the benefits to relieve stress, stretch, strengthen your body, awaken your energy, and bring calmness to your mind!

Transport to MandaLao 09:15: After the yoga session you will be transferred by minivan to the MandaLao Elephant Conservation property. Get an in-depth introduction into the history of MandaLao and the status of wild and captive elephants in Laos.

Meet the Elephants: Guests cross the Nam Khan River by long tail boat for the first introduction to our elephants. MandaLao guides will introduce guests to our elephants and mahouts, providing background on our elephants. Guests will be provided bananas or pumpkin to feed the elephants.

Trek: Pass beautiful Lao gardens before exploring the jungle-covered Huay Nok stream. Guests walk with the elephants through the jungle as they interact with each other and forage on native foods. MandaLao guides continue to explain elephant behavior as they guide guests through the forest. The trek is 2.5 Km and takes about 1.5 hours, it is flat and shaded most of the way.

Say Goodbyes: Guests leave the elephants and mahouts in the jungle and begin the trek back to MandaLao with their guide.
