However, in recent years, Laos has introduced the Laos-China Railway, which connects popular destinations like Luang Prabang, Vientiane, and Vang Vieng.

Generally, there are three distinct seasons in Laos: cool season, warm season, and rainy season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cool season (November to February):<\/strong> This is generally considered to be the best time to visit Laos. During these months, the weather is cooler and drier, with pleasant temperatures. It is the peak season for tourism, so you can expect more visitors, especially at popular tourist spots. This is a good time to explore nature and historical sites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Warm Season (March to May):<\/strong> These months are the warmest in Laos, with temperatures that can exceed 40\u00ba in some areas. If you can handle the intense heat, you can still enjoy your visit. However, be aware of humidity, which can also be high during these months.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rainy Season (June to October):<\/strong> During this season, Laos experiences heavy rainfall, especially in July and August. The rains can cause flooding and make it difficult to access some remote areas. Despite this, the vegetation is lush, and the landscapes are beautiful. If you don&#8217;t mind the rain and you enjoy greener surroundings, this might be an option.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-travel-sim-card-for-laos\">Travel SIM Card for Laos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While many hotels, guesthouses, and restaurants in Laos offer free Wi-Fi, some travelers prefer or need a constant connection.

There, specialized doctors can advise you, answer all your questions, and provide tailored recommendations. In addition, they will give you essential information on preparing your first aid kit and preventing diseases with basic precautions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowledge is power\u2014once you have all the necessary information, you\u2019ll be able to make the best decision for your trip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-alpha-channel-opacity has-text-color has-background has-light-grey-background-color has-light-grey-color\" id=\"sep1\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" id=\"fila2\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-senff-sticky-block\" data-topspace=\"60\" data-cfa=\"true\" data-minwidth=\"600\" data-maxwidth=\"99999\" data-pushup=\"#sep2\" data-zindex=\"1\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/iconos\/destinos.png\" alt=\"Destintions of Laos\" class=\"img-menu-content img-menu-content-la\">\n\t<h2 id=\"destinos-de-laos\" class=\"menu-seccion\">DESTINATIONS<\/h2>\n\t<ul><li><a href=\"#h-vientiane\" data-level=\"3\">Vientiane<\/a><\/li>\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#h-luang-prabang\" data-level=\"3\">Luang Prabang<\/a><\/li>\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#h-vang-vieng\" data-level=\"3\">Vang Vieng<\/a><\/li>\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#h-nong-khiaw\" data-level=\"3\">Nong Khiaw<\/a><\/li>\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#h-pakse\" data-level=\"3\">Pakse<\/a><\/li>\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#h-savannakhet\" data-level=\"3\">Savannakhet<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading outline\" id=\"h-destinations\">DESTINATIONS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-0\" id=\"h-vientiane\">Vientiane<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The capital of Laos is not a place we had fond memories of from our first visit, but the fact that we were &#8220;stuck&#8221; in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conmochila.com\/en\/vientiane-travel-guide\/\">Vientiane<\/a><\/strong> the second time (we had to wait for a visa) meant that we ended up finding our spot.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conmochila.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/11\/Pha-That-Luang-vientiane-02.jpg\" alt=\"Statue of King Setthatthirat with Pha That Luang in the Background\n\" class=\"wp-image-4035\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Statue of King Setthatthirat with Pha That Luang in the background<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Patuxai<\/strong> or triumphal arch, the <strong>Pha That Luang<\/strong>, a walk along the river, seeing many temples, eating lots of bread and drinking lots of wine.

However, it is easy to find hostels that are affordable, but very modest. We stayed in double rooms with private bathrooms that cost between 50,000 and 120,000 kips. Here are some examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\/partners\/partnersearch.aspx?pcs=1&amp;cid=1620427&amp;hl=en-us&amp;hid=862547\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Taidam guesthouse en Luang Nam Th<\/strong><\/a><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\/partners\/partnersearch.aspx?pcs=1&amp;cid=1620427&amp;hl=en-us&amp;hid=862547\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">a<\/a><\/strong>: 70,000 kip<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/la\/molina-bungalows.es.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Molina bungalow en Vang Vieng<\/strong><\/a>: 120,000 kip<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Our strategy was always to &#8220;book the first night and then find hotels as we go,&#8221; but as tourism has grown, so have the number of new hotels and &#8220;fully booked&#8221; signs, as well as new booking websites. The advantage now is that, with just a click, you have a wide selection of hotels and guesthouses to choose from before you even arrive at your destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend using platforms like&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/?aid=372777\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Booking.com<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\/city\/vientiane-la.html?cid=1620427\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Agoda.com<\/a><\/strong>, which are very popular in Asian countries like Laos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transport\">Transport<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there is no railway, most of the travel in Laos will be by road, bus or minivan. We do not have updated prices, because the last time we did the whole route by motorbike, and our first visit was almost 10 years ago, so it would not make sense to put prices. But traveling locally is always a cheap and affordable option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-currency\">Currency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The official currency of Laos is the <strong>Lao kip (LAK)<\/strong>, although in the capital and many other cities you can also use the Thai baht and the US dollar without any problem. In rural areas or less populated areas, it is <strong>advisable to carry kips<\/strong> as well for small transactions, and to carry smaller denomination notes to avoid exchange problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-food-and-drink\">Food and Drink<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Food<\/strong>: The cheapest way to eat is in the simple restaurants frequented by locals, or at market stalls. In these places you can always eat a good plate of rice (15,000 kip approx.), a soup, or some noodles. Our food budget was very varied, but we usually paid around 40,000-50,000 kip per person. Keep in mind that a beer always increases the budget&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Drink<\/strong>: The ever-present Beer Lao, you&#8217;ll find it in every single place you stop, whether it&#8217;s a seedy joint in the middle of a road or the most luxurious restaurant in Luang Prabang. Obviously, it doesn&#8217;t cost the same everywhere, and the price ranges from 10,000 kips to whatever they want to charge you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-map-of-laos\">Map of Laos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Click on the image and it will take you to a new Google Maps window with all the points of interest to travel around Laos.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-imagen-post-H\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/u\/0\/embed?mid=15FoPoil7AvrXhGFMVQFOfO3GrHiPjcdu&amp;ehbc=2E312F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img style=\"aspect-ratio: 700\/466\" height=\"466\" width=\"700\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conmochila.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mapa-laos-700x466.jpg\" alt=\"Mapa Laos\" class=\"wp-image-1041676\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Laos map<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many of you already know, Laos is a country that we are very fond of, as it was the destination of the first trip we made together, and the one of which we started writing the blog, back in 2008.
