(Approx 5-6 hours trekking)

Your Akha Homestay Experience begins at our office in Luang Namtha, where you will meet your guide and receive a short briefing about the journey ahead. Departure is around 9:00 AM.
We drive to Ban Chalernsouk, a Khmu village located at the edge of Nam Ha National Protected Area. Here, you will meet a local village guide who will accompany you into the primary forest. The trek follows small streams and bamboo groves, leading deep into untouched jungle.
Along the way, your guide will introduce you to seasonal jungle fruits, edible herbs, and basic survival skills. You will learn how to collect natural ingredients from the forest and prepare them for lunch. After reaching a scenic mountain viewpoint, you will enjoy a freshly prepared meal surrounded by nature.
Following lunch, continue trekking for about one hour through forest trails and Akha farmland before arriving at Ban Namxa, an Akha village, in the afternoon.
Upon arrival, your guide will explain the cultural Do’s and Don’ts to ensure respectful interaction with the community. Take a short walk around the village to observe daily life. If time allows, you may join your host family in preparing dinner, a wonderful opportunity to learn traditional Akha cooking techniques.
In the evening, enjoy storytelling shared by a village elder, offering insight into Akha traditions and beliefs. Overnight accommodation is in local style with simple bedding, providing an authentic cultural experience.

After sharing a freshly prepared breakfast with your host family, you will say goodbye and begin your return journey by cycling back toward Luang Namtha.
