Chansay was super helpful while we were planning our custom tour of Laos, which included some remote locations. He speaks very good English, he is well-informed and could answer all of our questions. The driver he hired was also excellent. The car was in good shape and had seatbelts in the back. I recommend bringing your own food if you are traveling to areas not frequented by tourists.

I used this service for a round trip private transfer between Vientiane and Vang Vieng. Arranging was easy via email. Pickup was smooth. The driver had a woman with him I assume his wife but neither spoke English. Luckily I was able to talk to arranger on the phone. They got lost trying to find the hotel in Vientiane and I had to direct them using google maps on my phone. Overall we made it okay but could have been better.

Nothing special really. If you have been to Halong bay in Vietnam, this artificial lake is nothing. However, if you are in Vientiane, Laos and have a free day it is worth a visit. The trip takes you to the countryside across rice farms and various plantations. A stop at a scenic hydro electric power plant to take a snapshot of a nice view infront of the water locks is recommended. Then on arrival at the lake, you stop at a small jet to take an hour boat ride. Various sizes boats are available. The prices are so cheap. You take a fairly good size boat for an entire family for 150,000 Kip. You pay slightly more for a boat with a toilet onboard. This is for an hour long ride which is so relaxing. You can order lunch and have it on board whilst slowly cruizing around this huge artifial lake. Recommended if you and family or group of friends have a free day whilst in Vientiane, Laos.

This was an EXCELLENT way of seeing the town and orientating yourself. Definitely not strenuous.It also gave us time to view more closely the attractions rather from inside a minivan.

The Early Morning Alms Giving is good to see to experience one piece of the local culture; however, we were very put off by all the tourists who were just gawking, taking photos and being disrespectful - without any understanding of what the ceremony signifies. People should research it before going so you understand what it is. We discovered later that more monks were accepting alms on the side-streets than on the main road. My only guess is that they wanted to avoid the ridiculous spectacle on the main road. Good for them! People - BE RESPECTFUL !!!!

Casting aside one’s prejudices of what defines a country’s capital is fairly easy when arriving in Vientiane; Laos’ government and administrative centre just doesn’t fit in this box. Yet, this also highlights the uniqueness of the country’s largest city where life seems to move at a slightly more relaxed pace. Added to the fact that there is more than meets the eye, you will touch the essentials of locally vibrant, yet truly Laos’ contribution to the world’s capital list. From enigmatic temples to dashing street-side examples of somewhat unhurried lifestyle, Vientiane leaves a lasting impression as a truly charming destination.
