Your journey begins with a morning pickup from your hotel or guesthouse at 8:30 AM. Accompanied by a local guide, travel by traditional tuk-tuk to the banks of the Mekong River before crossing by local boat to Ban Chan Pottery Village, located just 3 kilometers from Luang Prabang's historic center.
Upon arrival, meet skilled local artisans whose families have preserved the pottery traditions of Ban Chan for generations. Learn about the village's rich history, the importance of pottery in Lao culture, and the traditional techniques that continue to shape everyday life today.

Under the guidance of experienced craftsmen, create your own unique pottery piece while gaining a deeper appreciation for this centuries-old art form.
Beyond the workshop, take time to explore the peaceful village atmosphere, observe local artisans at work, and experience a side of Luang Prabang that many visitors never see.
