  A moment suspended. The exceptional sunset view of the surrounding fantastic scenery ... while comfortably sipping a delicious cocktail or a cold drink ... and that’s not all: it’s hard to talk about it without saying too much, but I hope you enjoy the end-of-trip surprises as much as they did.

  

  

  

  

• Do not book online. Only on site

  Watch out! Price is more than twice as high on TripAdvisor as on the spot. We paid 68 euros for two people. On site it would have cost only 25 euros. In addition, we had problems entering because the lady on site only accepts paper receipts of payment in cash. The tour is sold online, but the voucher sent by mail is not accepted. We had to discuss for half an hour and wait for the manager to get on board. The trip also started half an hour later than planned. This was communicated to all participants. Only we have not received any information, mail or anything. The ride itself was ok, but not sensational. Prices for drinks on board but very fair.

  Well! You can't help the weather, as you know. But we had booked online, and all who read this... not book online. Far too expensive locally by half cheaper. The 2 hour trip was quite nice but really not worth the money. Released a drink for everyone, also quite nice but you don't need it. Prices on the boat really okay. Conclusion : Look locally, there are better trips on the Mekong if you want to experience this. 2 points because it was nice, but not anymore.

  The experience was wonderful and shouldn’t be skipped if you’re in Luang Prabang. It was relaxing sitting on the cruise with a cold drink and just enjoying the sunset. The staff were friendly and we had a fun activity whilst onboard. I would recommend to bring a portable handheld fan though as it was hot when the cruise was stationary for a bit for people to enjoy the view. Overall, very much recommended.

  This trip was cancelled so not sure why I keep getting notifications. However, we were told that it was cancelled because there weren’t enough passengers. We were disappointed, however we were lucky enough to have a sunset cruise through the accommodation that we booked. The Namkhan was wonderful and had their very own boat and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable.

• If I could give this 15 Stars I would.. simply the best I've ever done and I've been to 86 countries

  This was by far the best looking boat out there.. it is double deck there's snacks in a drink that comes with it and or you can purchase more snacks and drinks if you'd like.. the activities on the boat were fabulous this is 10 times better than the experience I thought I was going to get

  No designated meeting point what send the tour opreator and Viator. They weren't looking for us. What they gave as the meeting point doesn't reflect reality. We are regular travelers, but we haven't been like this before. No one was waiting for us at the location. I don't recommend it.The support also only sent what the local tour operator sent.. no matter how much I told them it wasn't appropriate. If I don't contact them the day before, they won't send it either... On the spot is much cheaper !

  

• Total Rip-Off From Viator/Trip Advisor

  We paid $35 per person. When we got to the departure location, the company was advertising it for 295,000 Kip ($13.57) per person. I knew there would be a price difference, but triple is a total rip off price gouging. You can go to Sa Sa Sunset Cruise yourself, and not get ripped off. Screw Viator!!! Never will use them again.

• Lovely chill time on the river at sunset but don’t book through tripadvisor.

  Lovely chilled time on the river. But. Don’t book through Tripadvisor, you pay well more than double than you’d pay by just turning up. 11USD is all you should need to pay. I didn’t expect Tripadvisor to be such a rip-off! Also, the check-in staff didn’t even know what to do with my booking confirmation, and I had to wait 15 minutes for the manager to turn up to verify and approve my booking whilst lots of others boarded and found their seats. Now here’s waiting to see whether Tripadvisor will actually be honest enough to publish this review. Also, be aware the included ‘snack’ has egg in it so if you don’t or cannot eat egg, there’s nothing to snack on for you.

• Great idea for a date night

  The ship has a romantic, boho touch to it which allows you to relax completely. The food is also great you can pre-book a special 7 Lao dishes dinner or choose some great snacks from the bar menu. Also during the cruise I experienced a really special "fish ritual" which gave the last finishing touch to the whole experience. Highly recommend.
