Traditional village in the jungle. I really enjoy the kayak trip down the river and the local food.

Eco-trekking in Nam Ha Nature Reserve organized by the Luang Namtha Tourist Office. A homestay in an ethnic minority village on a one-night, two-day rafting tour. You can stay in a Kum family homestay or an ecolodge in Nalan village and experience the simple daily life of the Kum tribe.
