Frequently Asked Questions:
Is this trip suitable for me?
This trip is perfect for individuals who enjoy fun and making new friends, regardless of age. If you come with a relaxed spirit, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable week. It’s important to understand that this is an adventure trip, and unexpected situations may arise. While we prioritize quality hotels, please be aware that traveling in Laos, Cambodia, and Thailand is different from staying at the Four Seasons in Paris. You may encounter unique experiences like meeting unfamiliar animals, weak or non-functional internet, faulty air conditioning, or water pressure different from what you’re used to. Nevertheless, these differences make the journey worthwhile. We can’t promise good weather all the time; occasional rain and rough seas are possibilities. Embrace the adventure! If you invite friends to join the tour, make sure they are aware of these aspects, as we want to avoid having any unhappy travelers who were “dragged” into the trip by friends, as it can negatively impact the group’s enjoyable and relaxed atmosphere.
What type of accommodation will we have?
We will stay in double rooms. If you are traveling alone, you’ll share a room with another same-sex traveler (occasionally a triple room or sharing a double bed may be necessary). If you are traveling as a couple or with a friend, you’ll have your own private room.
What if I want a single room?
Adding an additional single room is rarely possible. If you’re interested, please contact us. We’ll inquire with hotels about availability and the price of the single supplement, which is usually quite high.
When should I book my flights?
You should only book your flights after making the tour payment and confirming with LEVA-ME that your reservation is finalized and the trip is confirmed. We will provide recommended flights. For the domestic flight from Luang Prabang to Siem Reap, it’s essential to be on the same flight as the rest of the group to benefit from transfers. Otherwise, you’ll have to arrange your transportation between airports and hotels.
When will LEVA-ME confirm the trip?
We confirm the trip when all conditions for its realization are met, including reaching the minimum number of travelers and finalizing all organization aspects (reservations, transfers, activities, etc.). Generally, confirmation happens several months before the trip, but in exceptional cases, it may be as late as 20 days before the departure date. Once the trip is confirmed, we’ll send an email so you can proceed with flight bookings and provide us with the flight details/times. If the trip is canceled due to reasons beyond LEVA-ME’s control, we’ll refund the amount paid to LEVA-ME, but we are not responsible for flights purchased by the traveler.
Can I sign up alone?
Absolutely! The majority of our travelers join solo. This trip is an opportunity to meet new people and make friends.
Who will I travel with?
First and foremost, you’ll be with the LEVA-ME tour leader throughout the trip. Then, you’ll spend a week with other travelers who share your passion for travel, adventure, and discovery. The age range of our travelers is broad, spanning from 20 to 70 years. Rest assured, the atmosphere is very fun, and you’ll end the trip with a new group of friends.
What about the extra activities?
Please reserve and pay for the extra activities up to 2 months before the tour date. Reservations or cancellations cannot be made after this date. The tour leader may not accompany the extra activities, but each activity will have a coordinator to pick you up from and return you to the hotel.
Do I need travel insurance?
All travelers are required to have travel insurance for the duration of the tour. You can obtain this insurance from any provider and must send us the proof of coverage.
Will the group of travelers be together all the time?
No, as travelers come from various parts of the world, the group meets at the hotel in Bangkok. We will have the flight details and times of all participants. There will be only one transfer from Bangkok airport to the hotel. If you arrive at the same time or earlier than most of the group, you can wait at the airport, and we’ll all go together in the transfer. If you arrive later in Bangkok, you’ll need to make your way to the hotel on your own, either by taxi or metro.
I don’t have a flight on the first day of the tour. Can I arrive earlier or stay a few more days?
Yes, but you are on your own.
Age Requirement?
To join this incredible journey, you must be at least 18 years old. We welcome travelers aged 16 or 17 if accompanied by their parents, and they’ll be treated as adults throughout the trip.
What to Pack?
Pack light and easy for this adventure! Bring comfortable clothing, sneakers for exploration, flip-flops, and a bikini for relaxing by beautiful beaches.
Do I have time for myself?
We believe in creating a balanced tour experience. While our itinerary is full of exciting activities, we ensure you have ample free time to explore at your own pace. Feel free to discover hidden gems and immerse yourself in the local culture. Your adventure, your way!
Why are not all meals included?
