Overview
RICE IN THE MORNING, FALLS IN THE AFTERNOON
Do you want to know what it takes to cultivate, harvest and prepare rice before it’s ready to eat?
This unique half-day ‘Rice is Life’ activity takes you on an in depth and hands-on learning experience where you will participate in 14 steps of the rice cycle on the Living Land community farm.
The Living Land Farm, a community enterprise just outside of Luang Prabang, maintains educational programs and professional organic farming right next to village rice paddies. Only small groups are able to join the interactive rice farming experience which actively benefits locals from the community, maintaining their crafts in their traditional form. You’ll also learn about bamboo weaving, tool and trap making, gardening and even blacksmithing.
After a special rice snack at the farm we’ll take a scenic drive along the Mekong River to have lunch at the the beautiful Kuang Si Waterfall. You’ll have plenty of time to swim, explore, and photograph the waterfalls as well as you stroll through the lush surrounding jungle.
The tour concludes late afternoon in Luang Prabang City.
