The Funky Gibbon


I sadly didn’t have time to visit this treat but for anyone who may be reading this before visiting Laos then I thoroughly recommend visiting a place called “The Gibbon Experience”. It is a conservation project with a difference. Your accommodation is a series of tree houses connected by aerial zip lines which you can ride from one tree house to another. Trekking, waterfalls and nature walks are there for the taking for anyone interested.

Don’t be put off by the $100 price tag though, everyone I have spoken to has raved about their experience and the monies raised go to expanding the project and local villages and more importantly acting to conserve the area.

Check out “The Gibbon Experience” at www.gibbonx.org
