Following a hotel pickup in Luang Prabang, embark on a unique journey as you board a private boat for a cruise along the majestic Mekong River. During the cruise, take the opportunity to meditate at a series of small temples, offering an intimate experience that brings Buddhism to life and provides a new perspective on temple visits.

Luang Prabang is the spiritual heart of Buddhism in Laos, featuring stunning temples that range from small village centers to grand and impressive tributes to Buddhism. The ‘Meditation on the Mekong’ experience combines two of the city’s most significant features—the Mekong River and Buddhist culture—into a full-day trip that immerses participants in spiritualism and meditation.

Participants will be guided on their spiritual journey by former Buddhist monk Ajanh Souk, who introduces Lao Buddhism and shares insights into a monk’s life and practices. Certified instructor Michelle leads a 45-minute and a 75-minute seated meditation session. Michelle also demonstrates ‘walking meditation,’ which is believed to invigorate, relax, enhance concentration, and boost strength and stamina, while explaining Buddhist practice and symbolism from a Western perspective. Back on the boat, both experts are available for private tutoring and discussions.

The tour concludes with a return to the hotel after the boat docks.
