Luang Prabang: Kuang Si Waterfall & Rice Farm Tour

We will head to Kuang Si Heritage Rice Farm.

The experience offers participants the chance to select seed, help sow or transplant seedlings, learn an indigenous salt-trick for choosing healthy grains, plough a paddy behind a water buffalo, and practise transplanting or harvesting under the guidance of local farmers—real work that connects travellers to place and practice.

house allows guests to taste sticky rice they helped prepare, hear stories of water sharing and seasonal life, and experience hospitality that returns value directly to the community.

You will have free time to swim and stroll around the waterfall park. (You can also visit the bear sanctuary within the park.)

This engineered waterway embodies the communal governance of the land. For generations, these gravity-fed systems have been the lifeblood of the valleys, cleverly diverting water from mountain streams to nourish the terraced paddies below. Board a local farm tractor for a slow ride across the valley into the Kuang Si Heritage Rice Farm on the Mekong’s bank. Back at the farm, there is time to refresh, relax, or shower before boarding a traditional long-tail boat for a serene sunset cruise.
