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.

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.

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.
