We didn't for the first two days in LP, but then we bumped into someone that had been and saw the pictures which looked just stunning and it was a beautiful sunny day and so we thought why not. We went with a tuk tuk for 40,000 kip, 20 thousand entrance fee on top of that and it was a... more

We weren't too thrilled about the idea of going to the falls, knowing the river would be brown from the rainy season, and probably filled with leeches. However, our tour guide told us that it was great for swimming and no leeches with nice clear water. We didn't believe him, but let him take us up there anyway. Well, it... more

Great waterrfalls but a little more difficult to swim in than the Tad Se waterfalls strong currents and rocky bottom. Get your driver to stop on the way out of Luang Prabang at the Joma bakery pick up some food for a picnic. Near the base of the main falls are picnic tables with a great view. When you enter... more

(Visited in Sept.) Unbelievably beautiful! Water was a too cold for me, but others didn't seem to mind. Besides the main waterfall, there were multiple waterfall tiers and terraces to enjoy. Not crowded. Rope swing area is great for meeting other backpackers. more

My buddy and I rented mopeds (you can most certainly rent them in Luang Prabang, despite the ongoing debate in various threads) for US$15 per day and rode from Luang Prabang to the waterfall. The ride was very nice - it was about 30km along a well paved, windy, lightly trafficked road. When we got to the waterfall, we were... more

Kuang Si Waterfall was spectacular day trip. We rented our own Songthaew and jam packed 12 people into it. It was about a 40 minute ride. There are a couple of ways to make it to the top of the waterfalls. We inadvertently took the steepest way up. The paved road leads to the top as well, if you're not... more

We were in LuangPrabang in mid-April, 2009. While there, we booked a "5-hour" trip to Kuangsi Falls (recommended; be sure to take your swimwear, towel, and PROTECTIVE footwear -- the bottom is very stony!). We booked with "Grace Air Ticket Service Co.," on Sakkaline Rd. We were told "11 a.m. until about 4 p.m.", with about 3 hours at the... more

We went in July 2008. Since there were just two of us traveling we heard that the cheapest way to get there is to arrange a tuktuk through an agency. Laos Discovery Tours seemed the cheapest at the time. 30,000kip per person. All groups seem to only offer afternoon trips. Leave at 1:30 and leave falls at 4:30. I had... more

Less than 1 hour's drive from Luang Prabang, a very pretty outing. Good for kids to have some fun. It is also possiblet o have a catered picnic near the falls, delicious. And there are as usual markets, near the entrance to the park, where local textiles and crafts can be bought too. more
