Meet Ines, your Host 💛
-
Heyy, I’m Inês 👋 I’m 25, I’ve solo-traveled to 36+ countries and I’m the slightly chaotic soul behind Delulu Backpackers.
I’m all about slow travel, spontaneous adventures, and connecting with strangers who turn into travel besties 💛
I love real conversations, laughing at the little things, and exploring the side of a country that isn’t in the guidebooks.I don’t take life too seriously 😌 If we get lost? We vibe. If plans change? We roll with it.
I’m the kind of person who makes friends in tuk-tuk lines, joins random dance circles, and convinces everyone to jump into the ocean at midnight 🌊If you're into freedom, fun, connection, and messy moments that turn into the best memories — you’re gonna love traveling with me.
Just don’t expect everything to go perfectly… this isn’t a tour.
It’s a beautiful, slightly chaotic little adventure we’ll create together 🦋
✨Spoiler: You won’t want to come back.✨
Eight days. One river. A lifetime of “did that just happen?” moments. ✨
We begin in Luang Prabang 🏯, a place where saffron-robed monks wander past golden temples and the night market tempts you with foods you’ve never tried but instantly love 🍜. Days here are for chasing the turquoise tiers of Kuang Si Falls 💦, biking along quiet streets 🚲, and watching the sun melt into the Mekong from the riverbank.
Then we venture north, where things get wilder . In Nong Khiaw, we hike to a mountaintop 🥾, pitch our tents under the stars , and wake up to a view so unreal it feels like someone added it in post-production 📸. The next days are slow, beautiful, and deeply local — kayaking down the Mekong 🛶, exploring war-era caves , and cycling through rice fields 🌾.
We end in Muang Ngoy , a riverside village you can only reach by boat. There are no cars here 🚶♀️, just footpaths, hammocks, waterfalls 💧, and the kind of stillness you didn’t know you needed. It’s raw, untouched, and unbelievably welcoming — the kind of place you’ll be glad you saw before the rest of the world caught on 🌏.

Hand-picked stays with heart, hammocks, and the best vibes in Laos.
Every hostel and guesthouse on this trip is personally chosen by me — not just for comfort, but for the atmosphere, location, and the people who run them. We’ll usually share rooms as a group (sometimes even a private room just for us, depending on our group size)
🏊 Luang Prabang — The Jam Hostel
A beautiful, social hostel with a pool — perfect for cooling off after a day exploring waterfalls and markets. This is the kind of place where you can relax, meet other travellers, and join in on fun hostel activities, all with our own little crew.🌿 Nong Khiaw — Eco Farm Stay & Hostel
A locally-run guesthouse that recently opened its hostel space. Here, you can spend lazy hours in hammocks, rent kayaks directly from the property, or join the hostel group for a hike into the surrounding mountains. Peaceful, friendly, and surrounded by stunning scenery.🛶 Muang Ngoy — Delilah Muang Ngoy Restaurant & Homestay
A cosy, family-run spot right in the heart of this riverside village. With an on-site restaurant, friendly hosts, and a chilled, slow-living vibe, it’s the perfect base for exploring the waterfalls, caves, and footpaths nearby.
-
All transport between villages is included in your trip — whether we’re travelling by scenic riverside van or cruising along the Mekong by boat, it’s all part of the adventure. You’ll also have transport for included activities, like cycling to nearby villages or hopping in a local boat for a day trip.

All van transfers between destinations
Boat rides between riverside towns and villages
Cycling or other local transport for included activities

🚫 What’s Not Included
To keep things flexible, affordable, and full of freedom, here’s what you’ll need to cover yourself:
✈️ Flights to/from Luang Prabang
📄 Travel insurance (required – safety first, soft girl second!)
🍽️ Some meals & snacks (because part of the adventure is chasing coconut pancakes & local spots)
👜 Personal expenses (souvenirs, sunscreen, that beachy dress you need)
🚐 Airport transfer (ill help you organazing)
Don’t worry — I’ve got your back with all the tips on budgeting, booking flights, and packing like a dreamy, salty-skin explorer. 🐚
-
🚫 No tour guides. No rigid plans. Just a group of adventurous travelers seeing where the road (or river) takes us.
🐌 Slow travel vibes — we stay long enough to actually feel a place, not just tick it off a list.
🌊 Raw & untouched — Laos is still unsaturated by mass tourism, so you get to explore a real, authentic country before it changes.
🗺 Freedom to explore — we go by mood, weather, and group energy, not by a laminated timetable.
🔥 Connection over checklists — more laughing around campfires, less rushing from one “must-see” to the next.
🚤 Mixed adventures — tuk-tuks, boats, hiking, hammocks, waterfalls, and sunsets… without feeling rushed.
🏡 Hand-picked stays — locally run guesthouses and unique hostels chosen for their vibe, not just their location.What makes it different:
Most group trips pack every day with activities and guides — ours doesn’t. This is travel the way it’s meant to be: slow, free, flexible, and full of choice. We focus on the vibe and the connections, letting moments happen naturally. By the end, you won’t just have seen Laos — you’ll have lived it. 🌏✨

“The group chat is about to get lit.”
Morning
✈️ Arrival in Luang Prabang — Welcome to Laos! Drop your bags at The Jam Hostel, our social base with a pool, tropical vibes, and maybe a few too many hammocks. Take a deep breath — the air smells like coffee, grilled street food, and new adventures.
Afternoon
🚶♀️ First Wanders — We’ll take it slow and explore Luang Prabang’s charming streets. Golden temple roofs peek out between palm trees, monks pass by in saffron robes, and little cafés tempt us with their pastries. You’ll probably say “oh my god this is so cute” at least 17 times.
Evening
🌄 Phousi Hill Sunset Hike — Climb to the top for panoramic views over the Mekong and the town glowing in the golden hour. It’s the kind of view that makes you forget your phone… until you remember you need that perfect first-day Insta post.
🍽️ Welcome Dinner — We eat, we laugh, we swap “how I got here” stories. Warning: I will probably overshare.
🎳 Bowling Night (Optional) — Laos bowling alleys stay open until 1 am. Why? I have no idea. But it’s our kind of chaos.

Morning
☕ Slow Start — Breakfast at a local café. Think strong Lao coffee, warm baguettes (thanks, French influence), and people-watching as the city wakes up.
💦 Kuang Si Waterfall — We head to the jungle where tier after tier of turquoise pools wait for us. You can swim, wander shady bamboo trails, or just float and wonder why you didn’t move here sooner.
Afternoon
💍 Jewellery Making Class — Back in town, we join a local artisan for a hands-on workshop. You’ll make your own ring, necklace, or bracelet (up to two pieces within budget). Bonus: you now have a shiny souvenir that screams “I’m a world traveller and I made this.”

Afternoon
🏡 Check-in at Eco Farm Stay & Hostel — Locally run, hammocks with Mekong views, and the kind of chill where time stops existing.
🕳️ Nong Khiaw Caves — If time’s on our side, we’ll head to the famous Pha Tok or Pha Kuang caves. Once used as hideouts during the war, now they’re just dripping with history (and stalactites). Bring your inner Indiana Jones.
Evening
🌄 Nong Khiaw Viewpoint Hike — Short but steep — enough to make you feel like you’ve “earned” the sunset. The view? Mountains folding into the river like some desktop screensaver you thought wasn’t real.
🍺 Beer by the Mekong — End the day with a cold Beerlao, maybe a herbal sauna, and the soft hum of village life.

Afternoon
🏕️ Camp Above the Clouds — We reach the summit and it hits you — oh, this was worth every step. The view stretches across valleys, rivers, and endless ridges. We set up camp, gather firewood, and get cosy.
Evening

“Because who needs Google Maps when you have curiosity?”
Morning
🍳 Breakfast With a View — Coffee in one hand, banana pancake in the other.
🚶 Village Hopping — Wander from Muang Ngoi to nearby Ba Nai and Houay Bo villages. It’s all rice fields, water buffalo, and tiny wooden bridges that feel like they might collapse (but don’t).

🛶 Optional River Chill — If your legs are tired from “extreme walking,” swap the hiking boots for a kayak and drift lazily down the Mekong.
