Hin Boun
Hin Boun is a protected national park, with a rich diversity of species from macaques to bats, birds and even a few tigers and elephants. The lime karst scenery, and riverine life make it a great place to stop and drink in the beauty of nature for a night or two during a trip through southern Laos. In the heart of the biodiversity zone, several miles of accessible areas in the Kong Lor cave complex make it the caving capital of the world. Nearby, Prabaht Ponsan stupa and Ban Ton Na Mae market are well worth a visit, if only to see the intricate and colourful dress of the H'mong people who mainly populate the area.

We have been on expensive and luxurious holidays in the past, but the service and communication Ampersand has provided has far exceeded those offered by other agencies.

Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.

So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!

Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!

Ampersand’s details preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet/direct booking age. Shalmali was a delight to work with – before and during our trip.

I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.
