★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 38 reviews · 2 hours · from $20Best value

Zip over Vang Vieng’s forests and river, then tube through Tham Nam None Cave on this flexible two-hour adventure.

“Would not recommend this tour if you are a solo traveller. I was under the impression that I would be put with a small group, however that was not the case. When I asked if I would be with other people during the activity’s, they said yes, which was not the case at all. The ‘guide’ was not a tour guide at all and did not speak to me instead just pointed to the next activity and I followed him. If you are with a bigger group this could be a fun activity as long as you don’t rely on the guide. Considering I was the only one to be…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 36 reviews · 7 hours · from $38

Cycle Vang Vieng’s countryside, hike Phu Kham Cave, swim at Blue Lagoon One, and enjoy lunch on a 7-hour guided tour.

“la guida è stata gentile e disponibile, ma il tour non lo consigliamo a tutti coloro che cercano qualcosa di autentico in mezzo alla natura in quanto vi ritroverete a girare per delle strade impolverate tra il fumo di motorini e camion e farete sosta in due pozze d’acqua piene di turisti che fanno casino. la guida è stata comunque molto gentile e disponibile.”

Toutes les activités sont super bien organisées et permettent si vous n’avez pas beaucoup de temps à Vang Vieng de faire le tour en 1 journée. Nous l’avons fait avec deux personnes de plus de 65 ans, ils étaient très fatigués, mais nous avons adoré.”

“pickup was very late for the longtsil bost then I had to wait a long time in between activities. the boat was nice and relaxing but the wait with no information was annoying. the activities was also advertised as 2.5hoirs long and it was nearly 6 hours in total between the waits. the balloon ride itself was really nice..the pilots are so experienced calm and it's great to see the city..we had to wait for the wind to pick up but they can't be helped the champagne reception was ok but it was quite far away from where the balloon landed and was dark when we got there so it…”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 8 reviews · 1 day · from $58

Review of Vang Vieng's zipline, cave tubing, kayaking and Blue Lagoon 3 tour, with honest advice on value, safety and logistics.

“Overall it was a fun experience. I would recommend doing it with a different tour operator and if it is not raining. The tour operator didn’t speak any English at all (couldn’t even understand when we were asking for toilet - let alone how dirty the toilet was and without hand soap and also that they didn’t tell us ever where and where we could use restrooms/ change clothes/ etc.). The order of the activities was random (and we were never told what was up next even when we asked - because they didn’t speak any English - so we didn’t even know what we should have been wearing before…”
