Wake early to explore the market where locals from surrounding villages come to sell fruit, vegetables and trade goods. After a hearty breakfast at the lodge, board the boat around 8:30am for the second leg of your cruise. The highlight today is the whiskey village where sticky rice is turned into the famed Lao Lao whiskey and distributed nationwide! Take a tipple if you dare its powerful stuff!
