Welcome to Mystic Mountain Trecking, adventure & coffee LAOS
One full day jeep tour on Bolaven Plateau! An original way to discover treasures of that wild and beautiful region. Countless coffee plantations, Laven and Suay villages, remote waterfalls, by jeep and by trekking, you will enjoy the adventure!
One full day jeep tour, 1N/2Days, 2N/3Days or 3N/4Days on Bolaven plateau to discover wonders of this preserved area. 1 hour from Pakse, the region of Paksong offers a beautiful overview of untouched nature. During the journey, Mr. Khamsone – English speaking guide and coffee farm owner – will give you explanations about coffee plantations, from planting to roasting, finishing by a not-to -be -missed coffee testing (Robusta, Arabica and Typica). Then, trekking along coffee plantations, picnic lunch in a small riverside, discovering of vegetables fields and relaxing or swimming time at some remote and impressive waterfalls! The all interspersed by fun and unforgettable jeep tours.
This tour is possible all year round, but we recommend it in dry season. The main interests of that tour are plantations (coffee and vegetables), nature (waterfalls) and meeting with local people (Laven and Suay Village), which are interesting all over the year.
From November to March: 80% of coffee plantations and 20% of vegetables fields (cucumber, cabbage,chilly). That is means in dry season you can see the whole processing of coffee plantation on fields.
From April to October, 30% of coffee plantations and 70% of vegetables fields. In rainy season, you can see first steps of coffee plantations only as usually, the coffee fruit is still green. But Khamsone will explain all processing in order you to have a real overview.
This is a new concept, created by one of our good English speaking guides in Southern Laos. His family is working in coffee plantations more than 40 years, and he born in Bolavan plateau so he knows very well the coffee culture and is extremely passionate!
It is a really nice adventurous alternative to classic program on Bolaven Plateau, which allows clients to discover untouched area without any tourists.

Coolest night of my life! Laos village homestay
After meeting up with the Stray tour, spending one night in Laos, and traveling down the Mekong River, it was time to stay the night in a secluded Laos village. The village was a very nice one, situated in the green rolling hills next to the river, and the people we extremely outgoing and friendly. The customary welcome was a quite a funny surprise... mushroom whiskey.

Growing Coffee in Laos Highlands Provides Alternative to Opium Poppies
What started out as a project to provide an alternative for Laos' highland farmers is now riding the wave of increased international visitors to the UNESCO town of Luang Prabang. Traditionally known for its Buddhist temples, tourism in the heritage town is booming, paving the way for one company to make its mark with locally-grown coffee beans. Daniel de Carteret reports for VOA from Luang Prabang.

A hidden heaven in Pakxong
If you want a true taste of heaven in this world, it can be found in the south of Laos in Nongluang village among the hills of Pakxong district in Champassak province.
A day-and-night camp out organised by the local community will take you to earthly perfection at Dan Yai or Dan Nong Luang, atop the Bolaven plateau.
This is still a hidden place and few people know about it. But I was really lucky as I found out about it when I visited a friend’s house and fell into conversation with a tour guide.
So last weekend I and four local friends visited the place for the first time. I was amazed that my friends lived so close but had never been there before.
