We then went inside the temple with Si explaining main areas and talked to us about different types of meditation, before practising with/alongside him. The temple was just for us so no one was watching us or with us, apart from our group, which I liked.

We explored sitting, standing and walking meditation in the temple. We looked at chanting books too. He was excellent teacher and made us feel comfortable.

If you are into Buddhism, spirituality in Asia then I’d recommended this really enriching, authentic experience. If you want to get most out of it, come with questions because you’ll get really thorough answers.

We also had the joy of seeing a little puppy and it’s mum at the temple (all dogs calm and friendly) ?? Thank you si, and orange robe tours xx

Top class tour experience from the very knowledgeable, respectful, friendly and fantastic tour guide (Si). Our temple tour was supposed to last only an hour but ended up over 2 hours as Si was very genuine and enthusiastic in answering all our questions about Buddhist beliefs, practices and temples which we did not really understand beforehand. Tour group was small and Si carefully explained and answered all our questions, including questions of his own personal experiences. Highly recommend for all who would like to learn about Lao Buddhist culture temples and also Buddhism in general in an intimate and informal setting.

The Orange Robe tour and the small temple Wat Pa Phai in Luang Prabang we met at were very interesting. Nothing was off the table. We discussed Buddhism, the temple daily life from novice to Monk, and life after the temple. Then, we spent one hour inside the temple practicing meditation (seated, walking, and standing). It’s definitely worth doing if you have an interest in Buddhism and/or meditation.

I absolutely loved this tour. It felt culturally appropriate, and I could ask my guide lots of questions and he was very patient. I did the tour and the guided meditation. Excellent. I’ve learnt loads. Not cheap but this is a high quality tour that pays people fairly so I’m happy to pay a little bit more.

I really enjoyed this experience! Tay was great! I especially enjoyed the openness of communication:) felt very comfortable asking him anything I had in mind. The meditation techniques were very beginner friendly, which I appreciated because it was my first time trying to meditate. He was a patient and kind guide! One of my highlights in my time in Luang Prabang.

    Amazing experience. I cannot believe we were the only tourists staying at the elephant camp overnight. If you want to get close with elephants, it does not get any better than that.
