Muang Soune Experience

Kham's hometown - 65km -
​2 days / 1 night or 3 days / 2 nights
By bringing you with us to Kham's home village, we will make you feel at home by sharing the local lifestyle. Depending on the season and the activities taking place in the village while you’re there, you might help us in preparing a meal, getting ready for a fishing day, participating in a baci ceremony, harvesting rice, bathing in the river, shopping at a local market, attending a wedding party, among other unforgettable moments. Kham, her father Thongphat, her mother, Bounthan, and our village hosts, Kham's aunt and uncle, Nala and Nakeuy will welcome you to their modest village and will share their daily life with you. 

In Muang Soune village, you have the choice of sleeping in a traditional 100 year old Lao Leu private house or sleeping at Kham’s aunt and uncle’s house. We have been running the homestay since 2014 and all our guests have enjoyed their stay at Nala's and Nakeuy's house. The traditional wooden house is new and has been running since December 2019.
