Vientiane Motorbike Adventure 3 Days / 2 Nights

Day 1: Vientiane ( L, D )

(ride motorbike 97 KM to) Phou Khao Khouay Park – Ban Na & Elephant Community Based Tourism Development Project – Trek through Local Villages (5km) – Overnight on Viewing Tower Start this trip in the morning from Vientiane by motorcycle. One and a half hour’s drive towards the south along the road 13, passing by through local villages where we can stop for a breather. Arrive in Phou Khao Khouay Park and continue to Ban Na Wild Elephant Spotting Tower (and Community Based Tourism Development Project). Spend the rest of the day with your guide, and a local guide, learning about Elephants, and their history in this area. Your local guide will brief you on how to behave around the pachyderms, should you spot any. Safety is always the first issue, and it is crucial you pay attention to this information. During the day time we will be walking around in the area. But in the evening, we must all stay in the confines of the Elephant spotting tower, located near a ‘mineral lick’. Elephants often come to this lick in the evening hours, and, depending on the season, chances are good you will see one! Overnight on the tower, in sleeping bags, in safe but rustic surroundings.
