THE LAO NEW YEAR
Each year, as spring breaks out along the mighty Mekong River, the Lao people celebrate the Lunar New Year. This is an ideal time for Laos private tour, joining the locals carrying Buddhist idols and figurines on noisy and colorful parades through the center of Luang Prabang, a city of ancient temples, fantastic architecture, and ancient traditions.

This private tour begins at Angkor Wat, the grandeur cradle of Khmer civilization, nestled deep in Cambodia's jungles, before taking into Laos, and then travel along the Mekong to Luang Prabang to celebrate the pi mai, the traditional New Year celebrations.

The Laos private tour dates are fixed to coincide with the Lao New Year's celebrations at Luang Prabang. However, it is a great trip to be taken at any time of the Lao and Cambodian travel season (without, of course, attending the festival).

The recommended dates for Laos Private tour are from September to April.
