Backyard Travel, the online boutique travel agency specializing in insider tours throughout Asia, today announced an exciting new journey through the ancient Laos capital of Luang Prabang. Taking travelers on an insider’s trip through this beautifully preserved UNESCO World Heritage Site, this short tour gives travelers an authentic taste of local culture and tradition.

The 4-day, 3-night Culture and Cuisine in Luang Prabang tour invites travelers into the cultural heart of Laos. Starting with a traditional Laos ‘baci’ welcoming ceremony, guests embark on a journey that will take them across the city: along the Mekong river on a scenic dinner cruise; through Posay Markets on a morning cycling tour; and to a local artisan community to try their hand at traditional Laos weaving. They’ll also enjoy a private cooking class to learn the secrets of Laos cuisine, and have the option to enjoy a performance at the Royal Ballet Theater.

“We have seen increasing demand for more compact tours that focus on a single destination,” says General Manager of Backyard Travel, Trystan Trestchenkoff. “This tour packs a wide range of diverse experiences into a relatively short period of time, making it accessible to regional travelers on extended-weekend breaks and perfect for those who want to see Luang Prabang in more depth.”
