Trip FAQs
What is the ‘fundraising’ cost and how does it work?
Your fundraising goal is shown in your trip guide. You will be provided with your own online fundraising page that can be shared via all platforms. You can fundraise offline – any physical donations will need to be transferred onto your fundraising page. You are required to reach your fundraising target 1 month prior to trip commencement.
What accomodation will we stay in?
You will be staying in hotels in Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng. You will be staying in bungalows in the small town of Muang Ngoi for the days we are working in Had Sapuey Village. This is to ensure you get the rest needed to work well on the projects each day.
Where will we eat?
Breakfasts in Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng will be catered for at your hotel. We will be fed amazing village lunches on our project days. For other lunches and all dinners, we will be taking you to eat out at some of our favourite local restuarants.
I want to bring my family. Is it safe for me to bring kids?
Absolutely! We specialise in hosting families on the ground. Having kids ourselves, we know how life-changing a trip like this can be for kids and their parents, but also understand the needs and support families require.
What is covered in my Trip Costs?
From when you land in Laos to when you depart Vang Vieng, your accomodation, food, transport, and access to cultural sites are all covered in your Trip Costs. You will want to bring US cash ($1 and $5 notes are great!) to explore the incredible cities and towns we visit, buy a local sim card, coffees, snacks, and things from local markets.
What else will i need to get to Laos?
You will need to book your own flights, purchase travel insurance, and get a Laos visa. These are not included in your Trip Costs.
What if I have food allergies?
We can cater to most types of food allergies. We work closely with our food vendors to provide safe meal options for people with specific requirements including gluten free, nut and shellfish allergies, etc.
What about vaccinatations?
We recommend that you talk with your preferred GP or travel docter for any personal medical decisions.
What projects will we be doing?
Your team will be working in the remote Khmu tribal village of Had Sapuey .
