Laos Tours: Luang Prabang & Vientiane
Laos is a small, quiet country between Vietnam and Thailand. Life is slower here than in Vietnam, and for many people that is the reason to come.
When to go: November to March is cool and dry, the easiest time to travel.
Where to go: Luang Prabang, the old royal town on the Mekong, with its temples, the night market and the early morning alms giving (Tak Bat). If you watch it, please stay quiet and keep some distance. Vang Vieng, for kayaking and climbing among limestone mountains. Vientiane, the capital, with That Luang stupa, Patuxai and the Mekong riverside in the evening.
How many days: 7 to 10 days is a good length. The roads are slow, so don't plan too many places.
