For centuries monks and novices have walked through Luang Prabang, accepting alms from the local townsfolk. It is seen as a way for people to gain merit and for the monastic community to maintain contact with the people of the city.

Sai Bat, as it is known locally, starts as the sun rises, locals will take their spot on the sidewalk and wait for the procession of monks to start. They place sticky rice and other foods into the alms bowls before the monks return to their temples.

We have the perfect quiet spots around Luang Prabang to get away from the crowds and where you can enjoy and be respectful of this lovely peaceful and spiritual experience.

There is nothing like Saigon in the evening. The local favourite past-time of going "di vong vong" - a local phrase used to describe going around on foot or by scooter with friends and family, is the must do activity.

Locals sit street-side to enjoy the amazing array of local food on offer, catch up with family and friends, and chat over a Vietnamese-grown coffee/tea, and perhaps a locally brewed beer or two. A couple of hours in downtown is the perfect way to get to know this vibrant city.
