Detailed itinerary

The tour begins at 9 am when you will be picked up from your hotel. After crossing the Nam Song river, we will visit the Elephant Cave, an interesting historical spot, a small shallow cave with the fame of a stalagmite that resembles an elephant. A statue of Golden Buddha and the fellow monks can be seen inside the cave. A worthy and short stop on the way to the key attractions. The walk over the suspension bridge is also fun!

We'll walk across the long sling bridge up to the treehouse where the zipline begins. From there you'll be able to see fantastic views of the off limits of Vang Vieng. The zipline adventure consists of the zipline, bridges and a cliff walk, which make a perfect combination to spend some quality time.

For adventure seekers, can do a Superman fly down to the front end of the Tham Nam (Water Cave). You can swim in the clear, cool water and then tubing inside the cave itself. Head lamps will be provided. Therefore, you can easily enjoy the beautiful cave as you float through the tunnel. In the end, the lunch will be served (fried rice, BBQ, bread and fruits)

Finally we will continue to the Blue Lagoon 3 by a Buggy car and it will be the key highlight of this experience. You will be relaxed in the blue water or can rest in a private space on the bank. At the end of the day, we will come back to Vang Vieng and a hotel drop will be offered.
