Hi everyone, you can call me Neng!

I come from a small Hmong village nestled high in the mountains, about 85km from Luang Prabang. Being a tour guide wasn't exactly my childhood dream, but when I heard my cousin talk about his job – especially the part about "talking" – I was instantly intrigued!

English wasn't my first language, but I started learning at 17 and by the time I was 20, I felt comfortable enough to embark on my adventure as a tour guide.  In 2014, I officially became a Laos national tour guide, and I haven't looked back since.

Here's what makes me unique:

Hmong Heritage: Let me share stories of my Hmong background and offer a glimpse into their fascinating culture.

Off the Beaten Path: Forget crowded tourist spots; I'll show you hidden gems and authentic experiences Laos has to offer.

Open Book: I love to talk about anything and everything, so feel free to ask me any questions you have about Laos.

I'm more than just a guide; I want to be your friend in Laos. I can't wait to share my home with you and create unforgettable memories together!

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

My name is Mr. Lao Thao, and I proudly belong to the Hmong ethnic minority. As one of the earliest Hmong children to benefit from government-initiated education programs in rural areas, I embarked on a journey that defied the odds. Enduring a challenging 13-hour walk from the mountains to a small town for high school, I persisted against the odds, emerging as the sole high school and college graduate among my peers.

While my initial dream was to become a doctor, life had other plans for me. Upon graduation, I discovered that the role of a tour guide not only offered financial stability but also resonated deeply with my passion for exploration and connection. Embracing this opportunity, I have dedicated the past 12 years of my life to guiding travelers through the rich tapestry of Laos' landscapes, cultures, and histories.

Through my experiences, I have learned the true value of resilience, adaptability, and the power of education to shape one's destiny. As I continue to navigate the vibrant world of tourism, I am committed to sharing the beauty and diversity of Laos with visitors from around the globe.. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to guide and enlighten my next guests.
