LAOS TRAVEL AGENCY, Who we are?
Your family travel agency based in Luang Prabang
There's no middleman between you and us. We organise 100% of our services, so we have complete control over the quality of your adventure.
What is our role as your travel partner in Laos?
Fully legal, our agency guarantees you a safe journey through Laos. Laos has been open to group tourism since 1998, and even today, some areas remain inaccessible. Tours off the beaten track are strictly controlled by the country's authorities.
From Luang Prabang, our main concern is your satisfaction during your stay and that your adventure unfolds as promised.
Before you arrive, all the details of your trip are declared and stamped by the tourism office to ensure that your journey is completely legal. Any checks by the authorities on your travel documents are just a formality for us.
formality for us. You will only be accompanied by Laotian guides with official tourist guide licences. No foreigner is authorised to be a guide in Laos.

Our philosophy of solidarity travel
Our quality approach to developing fair, eco-responsible and innovative tourism in Laos and the expertise of our local Franco-Laotian team guarantee you an authentic trip perfectly organised by specialists and, above all, enthusiasts of this magical country.
Laos is still a little-known country that intrigues travellers with its mystery, serenity, authenticity, tribes and landscapes. Our role as designers of tailor-made tours is to share with you our experience in the field, gained over 20 years of scouting and organising trips to the farthest reaches of Laos, far from the tourist hotspots.
Each of us is an expert in a very specific type of trip, from cultural discovery to ethnic trekking. We scout and walk every track and trail we offer, so you can be sure your itinerary is under control.
Several times a year, some members of our team go on scouting trips to discover new circuits and update the itineraries we offer.

RENAUDIN
I grew up in the world of tourism in Asia. In 2000, at the age of 22, I started working for my parents in Laos for the family agency as a tracker on tours to meet the tribes. At the time, these tours were intended for French travel catalogues.
After they retired, I started my own agency in 2012,
‘my baby'.
Now, as a team, we put all this experience at the service of our travellers to create unique, tailor-made trips for you.
Phasouk VANSAVATH
I started my career in tourism in 1999 after graduating from the French department of the National University of Laos in Vientiane.
First as a French-speaking guide, then as a guide team leader, my role was to guarantee cohesion between your expectations and the important role of the guides in ensuring that exchanges with ethnic groups were beneficial for everyone. 25 years' experience has given me a knowledge of the country in all its nooks and crannies, which today enables me and my team to create trips that are far removed from mass tourism.
Vasanath SOURYAVONGSA
After a career in finance in France, I decided to get back in touch with my origins. After twenty or so trips to Laos since I was very young, I decided to move here to share Laotian culture with you.
As a fluent Laotian speaker who knows my country inside out, I'm always ready to put myself in your shoes and put together a programme to meet your every expectation. Thanks to my constant scouting in the field, I'll be able to advise you on your tailor-made trip.

I've got a diploma in tourism management from Luang Prabang, and I manage bookings.
I also take care of the official travel documents with the authorities, so that you can set off legally to meet ethnic groups in the remotest corners of Laos with complete peace of mind.

RAYNARD
As a top-level triathlete, particularly in mountain trail races, I've been passionate about Asia since my first trip in 2005.
I joined the team almost 10 years ago as a trek circuit tracker, and with time and my knowledge of the terrain, I now accompany groups from the north to the south of Laos and Cambodia.
We meet regularly with the Tourism Office and the Luang Prabang Chamber of Commerce to discuss how to promote safe, fair and quality travel for the many travellers who visit Laos.
We are also proud to be the French-speaking travel agency representing the city of Luang Prabang at various tourism seminars both in Laos and throughout Asia.
