    Why Choose Homestays in Cambodia, Laos & Thailand?

    Authentic moments money can’t buy – only on Laos ToursAuthentic moments money can’t buy – only on Laos Tours (Source: Internet)

    Staying in a local homestay is the most genuine way to experience the real heartbeat of Southeast Asia. Far beyond hotels, homestays let you wake up to rooster calls in a Cambodian floating village, share sticky rice with a Lao family in Luang Prabang, or fall asleep to the sound of waves in a Thai fisherman’s stilt house.
    Legend Travel Group hand-picks only the cleanest, friendliest and most authentic homestays – all personally inspected by our team – and combines them into seamless private Cambodia Tours, Laos Tours and Thailand Tours with English-speaking guides, comfortable transfers and worry-free planning.

    • Greet with a friendly “sua sdei” (Cambodia), “sabaidee” (Laos) or “sawasdee” (Thailand) and a gentle wai/sampeah.

    • Remove shoes before entering the house – slippers are usually provided.

    • Dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees) especially in rural and minority areas.

    • Always ask permission before taking photos of family members or inside the home.
