The wild paradise known as the ‘4000 Islands’ is your destination this afternoon. Visit Khong Island and the village of Muang Kong where the traditional village
life has remained unchanged for centuries. Dine under the stars before retiring for the evening to the gentle sounds of the river.

Day 3 Pakse
