Pandaw guests visit Ban Na San village, a Hmong minority hill community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sandbanks:<\/strong> The Mekong River is known for its sandbanks, which emerge during the dry season. These create beautiful, temporary islands in the middle of the river, where you can relax, swim, and soak up the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wildlife:<\/strong> Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife as you cruise down the river. You might see birds such as kingfishers and eagles, as well as monkeys and even the occasional wild elephant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to these sights, there are other activities, such as hiking near Ban Pak Sith Khummu village, visiting an elephant sanctuary and local markets as well as exploring the fascinating TAEC (Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre) in Luang Prabang.
