UNIQUE GLAMOUR OF LAOS 
 
Duration : 7 Days 6 Nights

Unique and colorful are the first of Laos’s virtues to greet travellers. Pearly frangipanis with their heady perfume, banks of overgrown trees peppered with scarlet flowers, temple art works, the burnt sienna robes of hundreds of monks and their novices, and resplendent gold and claret Wats. The scent of fresh coffee, river activity, produce markets and spicy food soon follows. And then the broader aesthetics begin to unfold. Experience the unique charm of our arrangements for you, your colleagues and your business customers with our special Incentive Programs.
