- Luang Prabang - Join our evening culinary tour featuring over 15 tastings, offering a delightful exploration of the historic city of Luang Prabang. This food journey is thoughtfully designed and led by our expert Laos food guides.
Before embarking on this adventure, please note that the tour showcases local cuisine, and due to the nature of street food vendors, we may not be able to accommodate all dietary restrictions. Here’s a transparent overview to ensure everyone has a great experience:
✘ Not suitable for vegetarian diets, as this would reduce the number of tastings by 4-5. ✓ Suitable for those with mild gluten and lactose intolerances, but not recommended for ✖️ celiac disease, as 3-4 tastings contain unavoidable gluten from soy sauce. ✔ Pork and beef are featured at a few stops, but guests with these restrictions will still find plenty to enjoy. ✖️ Not suitable for severe allergies or halal diets due to potential traces and cross-contamination.
