Pakse - Bolaven Plateau
Arrival in Pakse, transfer to Bolaven Plateau, discover Tad Fan waterfall and ethnic community in Tad Lo.
Upon arrival at Pakse Airport, you’ll be greeted and driven west to the Bolaven Plateau, a region known for its cooler climate due to its elevated position above the Mekong Valley.

This visit offers a refreshing escape from the heat and an opportunity to observe the cultivation of coffee, tea, cardamom, bananas, and other crops along the way.
We then continue to Tad Lo, another picturesque waterfall area, where several ethnic minority communities, including the Alak, Nge, and Katu, reside.
