메콩 크루즈, 꽝시 폭포 다녀왔습니다.
예약 과정도 친절했고요. 전체적으로 여행도 좋았습니다.
가이드는 친절했습니다. 팍우 동굴은 제 기준으로는 크게 볼건 없었고, 꽝시폭포는 최고 였네요.

Did a one-day full tour with Manifa Travel Thoroughly enjoyed the explanation and guidance from Mr. Thin. We did Mekong river cruise, Pak Ou cave, whiskey village, buffet lunch at elephant camp, also interacting with elephants, Hmong village and Kuang Si falls.

If I could give 6 or 7 stars I would happily do so. Went on a tour to Kuang Si waterfalls and Pak Oucaves today. We also visited a Hmongvillage, saw the bear sanctuary, had a great lunch at the Mekong where an elephant was walking around and visited the whisky village. Everything was so well organised.and Mr Pong was a more than excellent guide who took great care of all of us. If you visit Luang Prabang: do this tour!!

I booked a hike to Kuangsi Waterfalls for 2 people. It was a joined hike with 2 other hikers. We enjoyed the experience and were very happy with our guide - Year - who told us a lot about the Laotian traditions, nature and everyday life.
There was a delicious lunch and snacks provided for us.
The only downside was on the way back, as we were matched with a bigger group and there was an unexpected stop in a local village that we didn't signed up for.

We booked the tour ober get your guide with this agency. The boat trip was nice. But for lunch they force you in a elephant farm. There they provide riding and all the useless stuff with the animals. It's not written in the description of the tour, that you stop there. Also the transport back was bad. We were 2h later back than we should. No gas, drop off people at the airport, stop at random shops to sell us souvenirs. And they even don't know, were to drop us. We had to navigate them. We can't recommend it.

Last month we visited “1 DAY Mekong Cruise to Kung Si Waterfalls, Local Village s, Pak Ou Cave”.
It was best tour in Luang Prabang for us. If I have to visit Luang Prabang,I must be trying tour again.
This trip offers beautiful and spectacular scenery by van and boat. In addition, a delicious buffet lunch is served. Above all, I had a pleasant and informative trip thanks to the guide Mr. Latte(I’m sorry it not exactly name, I forgot his name’s spelling)who gave me a unique explanation with fun. Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Latte…
Thank you a lot Mr. Latte!!!

Gute tour mit anfangs unqualifiziertem guide. Unsere private tour, die für die landesüblichen Verhältnisse sehr hochpreisig war, begann mit einer 1-stündigen Verspätung. Was dann aber viel enttäuschender war: unser guide sprach und verstand kaum englisch, kannte die tour nicht, konnte uns nichts zu den einzelnen stops erzählen… fuhr nicht die angebotene Reihenfolge an … erst aufgrund mehrfacher Beschwerden im Büro erhielten wir ab 14:00 im elefantencamp einen wirklich guten und qualifizierten guide. Aber der Ärger blieb hängen, für fast 200 $ etwas angeboten zu bekommen, was eigentlich eine Abzocke ist hat kein Vertrauen hinterlassen und wir können Manifa Travel leider nicht empfehlen- schade, es hätte so gut werden können, wie andere hier beschreiben, aber es scheint ein teures Lotteriespiel zu sein, wer Glück hat bekomnt einen guten guide - wir hatten leider Pech. Wir werden nicht wieder bei Manifa Travel buchen.

We had a half day boat trip guided by Mr. Pong who shared us many knowledgeable story from the river, the caves, whiskey village and nice hospitality during the trip. We left with such a wonderful impression that stays in our heart and lovely memory of Luang Prabang ????

Please be aware that if you book anything with this company you are directly supporting animal abuse as they do elephant riding! Elephants are negatively affected by this and it is animal abuse. They are not meant to carry people. I did not book anything with this company after seeing they offer this on their website. Please put your money elsewhere, where they respect and treat animals with love and care.

L'expérience était sympathique

My son, husband and I booked the private sunset cruise with waterfall, cave, Hmong village and elephant camp. We had a fantastic tour guide Dan who really made the entire trip one of the best experiences we’ve had in Laos and Southeast Asia so far! He was so smart and shared great information with us. He catered to our needs and desires. He had a good sense of humor and laughed with us. We loved hearing his stories and perspective about his life and life here in Laos. I highly recommend this tour. And I highly recommend Dan. Request him if you can! Thank you for a great day!

Superbe expérience, mention spéciale pour notre guide Year qui parle couramment anglais et Français
Notre excursion a été parfaite, nous étions un petit groupe de 7 nous avons commencé par faire du kayak sur le Mékong puis une visite des grottes Pak ou, le guide nous a bien instruit sur les grottes et nous a raconté l’histoire des Hmong et celle de sa famille. Puis nous avons eu une pause déjeuner avec un super buffet avec vue sur le Mékong ! Nous avons poursuivi notre journée par les éléphants, nous n’étions que 3 ce qui était formidable comme expérience, nous avons pu les nourrir, se promener avec eux, monter sur leur tête et se baigner avec eux dans le respect de l’animal et sans nacelle !!! L’excursion s’est terminée par le sunset cruise qui était magnifique
Très bon rapport qualité/prix 42€/personne pour toute la journée avec prise en charge du transport et de la nourriture
Merci encore à Year pour cette magnifique journée

It wasn't only me, there were several other groups in the same situation on the day, we were picked up at around 10:30am, 2 hours late to the time we were informed (8:20am-9am) without any updates and information.

Since I joined a half-day tour (31 euro) previously, and it was an amazing experience with perfect support (they picked me up at 8:20am), I booked a 1-day tour (42 euro). However, the van this time actually arrived at the elephant camp at 11:30 due to the dalay. Some instructions & processes I remember from the first tour were skipped in the tour, and we were rushed to ride the elephants. Also we were left alone since there was no guide staff accompanying us.

The saddest situation was that no one answered calls and messages in the morning (few messages were just read) and we had no idea what was going on (such as if the tour was still going/ or canceled, etc).
It is OK to have problems (sometimes inevitable incidents happen), but it's crucial to provide back up support and updates to upset customers after that.

When the van finally arrived, the driver said "Sorry, but it's not my fault." and the staff when I visited the office later said "We were busy because it's Chinese New Year" laughing.

It's definitely a wonderful experience you provide, I wish you will be ready for countermeasures, and the same situation will not happen again in the future.

We went on a day tour today Saturday

Despite having big concerns of taking a tourist group Tour we have to say it was a great experience. Everything from our pick up, visits, lunch etc. just was well organized.
Thank you so much

Used for two tours during my week in Luang Prabang. Both went well, one kayaking, one hiking. Each came with a decent lunch. Each tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Prices were good, as a shopped around a bit before booking.

Gratitud infinita por la experiencia
Cuidan a los elefantes y nos explican la importancia del turismo consciente para la preservación de ellos
Si vas a ir, que sea en profundo amor por los elefantes, que sientan tu amor ya que son animales excepcionales

We hebben een halve dag kayaking tour over de mekong gedaan met een stop bij de pak ou grot, wat erg leuk was. De inbegrepen lunch vindt plaats bij hun ‘elephant camp’, waar ze ook tours aanbieden waarbij je op een olifant kunt rijden. Boek deze niet! Hoewel het lijkt alsof ze goed voor de dieren zorgen, op een olifant rijden is NOOIT goed. Olifanten zijn niet gemaakt om de hele dag mensen op hun rug te dragen. Denk hier alsjeblieft over na als je overweegt om zo’n tour te boeken

Didn‘t get what we paid for and everything was very unorganised :(

We had a lovely time in Luang Prabang. Outside of the city, however, we had a very negative experience and have yet to hear back from Manifa regarding our issues. We ended up having to spend an extra $750 USD on hotels and transfers to safely depart Vang Vieng, where the level of safety, support, and service dropped SUBSTANTIALLY. We did not participate in any activities in Vang Vieng on the second day, including lunch on the first day, and we only had a half day tour in Vientiane and had to pay for our own airport transfer. Additionally, we had to throw away our clothing after being left by a non-Manifa tour guide in a fetid portion of the river, and one of our members hit his head while being transported in a tuk tuk (versus the minivan that was mentioned in our quote). As clients who paid over $4k total for a comprehensive tour of Laos, we were disappointed by the service, disregard for safety, and responsiveness of Manifa during the latter half of our trip. Yuki offered to refund us only one day of activities for a total of $200 and then never responded to us again. Disappointing. Do not book.

We did the full day tour today, Mekong Cruise to Pak Ou Caves. Kuang Si Waterfalls . Local village tour and lunch at the Elephant Camp. The food was 10+, the best we've tasted so far, 3 weeks into our Asia travel. Our guide Mr Dan was also 10+, very professional, so much fun and gave us great knowledge. Would highly recommend Mr Dan to anyone.
