Combining Cambodia and Laos

Create your own Cambodia and Laos Tour

If you want to get a bit more off-the-beaten path then we recommend a combination of Cambodia and Laos. Laos is the quiet, laid-back neighbour of Thailand, Vietnam and China as well as Cambodia and the country is a beautiful jade-coloured land full of rainforests, fascinating culture and friendly people.

We offer you the chance to travel through Laos independently. You can become an elephant caretaker for a day, hike to mountain hill tribes and trek through the rainforest to the tropical waterfalls of the Bolaven Plateau. You can also visit the mysterious Plain of Jars, experience the early morning procession of monks in Luang Prabang and sail along the famous Mekong River.

Vive Vientiane

Duration:	3 days, 2 nights
Price:	From $109 per person - based on 2 people sharing
Offered:	Daily

Vientiane is a sleepy town on the banks of the immense Mekong River. It's a great place to stroll through the tree-lined, somewhat disorderly streets, without feeling like you're in a capital. Although Vientiane is the Laotian capital, it feels more like a large town, and it's missing a lot of the noise and chaos common in the cities. This module offers a relaxing start to your Cambodia and Laos tour and includes airport pick-up and two nights in a comfortable, centrally located hotel.
