All about the trip

This hill-tribe off-road biking experience includes a steep mountain climb, a visit to one of the most authentic ethnic minorities inhabiting the high mountainous regions of northern Laos (Akha tribe). The remote highland village is an excellent opportunity to experience a unique community livelihood, have a typical local lunch, enjoy a panoramic 360-degree view, and explore and interact with the Black Tai Villages.

You start the tour with a ride from our headquarters to the ancient Stupa of That Poum Pouk, which is located on the top of a high mountain. This place is perfect for taking beautiful pictures of the astonishing landscape.

After that, you continue to cycle up rough mountainous trails for a few hours before reaching the village on a hilltop. Here, you visit tribe families and interact with the children playing around. When it is about noon, it is time for a delicious picnic lunch prepared with local ingredients. After eating, you still have time to relax and enjoy the stunning scenery of this site.

Next, you visit another hill-tribe village of Tai Dam and Tai Deng ethnicity. The locals here make woven products and silk textiles. This is also the address of the local whiskey distillery, which you can visit and learn how the beverage is prepared.

Before taking your way back to the town, we will still have time to visit typical hill-tribe families in the village for a complete cultural experience.
