It took about 7 hours by boat to Luang Prabang. A beautiful journey and we only had to get out twice to guide the boat over the shallow waters on our way down to the Mekong...

Kids tubing, people panning for gold, wild elephants wandering along the riverside. It was a pretty special trip. Unfortunately, we ran out of petrol about 200 metres before the landing stage at Luang Prabang. It took about 20 mins to paddle in. Pretty lucky then that we made it that far.
