Amazing peaceful experience

5.00Fabulous cruise with amazing crew. Standing on the top deck sailing through serene waters in the sun was a dream for us. We were made to feel very welcome and although a large boat, only 4 passengers, myself and adult daughter and a lovely French couple. The lunch was incredible - notice was taken on our not eating meat or fish and the host provided a wonderful vegetarian meal with most of the produce from his own farm. There was a kayak attached and beach mats to use for when we stopped at a secluded cove. My daughter swam in the peaceful waters with the sounds of birds all you could hear. It was an amazing experience I would lightly recommend.

4.00Nice surroundings, super nice captain / guide and relaxed. Boat was a bit old but adequate. We were picked up directly in front of our cottage at green view resort (also recommended to stay)

5.00We heard about Perfect Journey from the managers of Lime bar/restaurant in Vang Vieng. We took an extraordinary cruise to Lake Nam Ngum with Theo the manager and his associate, both very friendly. We were a small group of 6 in a large super comfortable boat that offers a roof for sunbathing and a bar. We felt alone in the world during the walk and during our stop on a small island. We had the opportunity to swim and even kayak. We then ate on the boat and the lunch was perfect, we feasted👌🏻 In short we recommend 100% 😁
Super-chill cruise
