This ‘Live like a Mahout’ trip at the Elephant Camp is for real adventurers. The Camp, established in 2003 to protect Asian elephants in Laos, gives elephants a more comfortable retirement by providing professional medical care, nutritious food and natural environment. Around 8:00 am, travel to the Elephant camp outside the town and check-in at the beautiful resort. Take a boat across the Namkhan River to reach the Camp, choose an elephant and spend time with the Mahout team, feeding and getting familiar with the graceful animal. Return to Lao Spirit for lunch. In the afternoon, continue the excursion by boat to TadSae waterfall (yet no water from April to August), a pretty, layered waterfall where you can swim in the refreshingly cool water. Return to the Camp by same boat to ride your elephant with the Mahout team out into the jungle. Back to the resort to freshen up and have dinner. Overnight in Luang Prabang. Meals included: Lunch, Dinner
