хамт Malaykham Phimmasone · Don Khong
The classic slow-boat ticket — Huay Xai to Luang Prabang in two days, with the overnight stop in Pakbeng. Captain Malaykham's family runs one of three boats on the route; the deck has cushioned benches, soft drinks for sale, and snacks. The Pakbeng guesthouse is booked separately on arrival (we'll WhatsApp recommendations).

Is the Pakbeng guesthouse included?
No — the slow-boat companies don't run accommodation. Captain Malaykham will WhatsApp three trusted family-run guesthouses on arrival; rooms are $10–18.
