My guide was the person that made the tour enjoyable. Having a guide with a good personality is very helpful. All the temples did seem the same with no real outstanding features, but the tour is still worth it.
<p>I ended up being the only one on this tour! My guide was exceptionally nice and informative. Our driver was fantastic too, he always made sure I exited the car safely on the busy and chaotic streets. The guide also took me down a fun side street where his wife's family was making traditional Laos snacks. It was a wonderful experience. When walking to the car we saw more people making different thinks and my guide chatted with the people and explained the snacks they were making. This was a fantastic addition to the tour!! One thing I wasn't this biggest fan of was being brought to a village on the way to the waterfall, which was essentially just walking a path around the village, where the main objective was obviously for me to buy something. But other then that it was great.</p>
<p>Kuangsi waterfall is huge and incredible. shopping is good.</p>
<p>Great tour guide, very flexible, covered a lot of activities in one day.</p>
<p>Very good and knowledgeable guide. Itinerary was just right.</p>
<p>It was a very refreshing and amazing experience, especially when you're right in front of Kuangsi Waterfall. Our tour would not have been better without such excellent guide like Mr Khomphon Phongsavanh. We had an enjoyable trip indeed!</p>
<p>The waterfall tour was the highlight of my trip to Luang Prabang. I could not ask for a better guide.</p>
