Peace, Faith, Discovery

Bolaven Plateau

High in southern Laos, the Bolaven Plateau is a land of misty mornings and cascading falls. Days begin with the aroma of freshly roasted coffee and end beside thundering water at Tad Fane or Tad Yuang.

Alms Giving

At dawn, as golden light touches the streets, lines of saffron-robed monks collect alms in silence: a tradition that has endured for centuries.

That Luang Festival

Every November, the golden stupa of That Luang glows under a sky filled with lanterns. Pilgrims gather, offerings are made, and the capital hums with music and devotion

2. What is the best time to travel to Laos?

The ideal time to visit Laos depends on the seasons. There are two main seasons: the rainy season, from June to the end of September, and the dry season, which is divided into the cool dry season from October to March and the hot dry season from April to May. Generally, the best time to explore the entire country is from late October to early March.

For specific regions, the optimal times are:

Luang Prabang: November to early March
Northern Laos: Early October to late May
Central Laos: November to early March
Southern Laos: November to early March

Traveling during the rainy season offers lush and beautiful landscapes, better prices, fewer tourists, and easier service bookings, with rain mainly occurring at night, late afternoon, or early morning, and occasional showers during the day.

3. How long is the ideal stay in Laos?

The ideal length of stay in Laos varies depending on individual preferences. For those with limited time who want to see the main highlights, 3-6 days is reasonable. If you are a Laos enthusiast and wish to explore in depth and experience it in an authentic manner, 2 weeks (10-15 days) is ideal.

Additionally, combining a trip to Laos with neighboring countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand can influence the decision on how long to stay in Laos.

Contact our advisors, who are knowledgeable about the destinations in Laos, to design a customized trip that perfectly meets your desires.

4. What is the 'customized travel' option?

Customized travel is a service where your journey is designed according to your preferences for dates, duration of stay, services, and budget. A local advisor assists you in preparing for the trip and supports you on-site, handling transportation, visits, accommodation, and more. This ensures you benefit from an organized trip tailored to your desires and constraints down to the smallest details.

5. How can I book my trip?

If you agree with the itinerary proposed by one of our advisors, please send us an email to confirm the reservation of the tour with our agency. Your advisor will then provide you with the booking documents, including:

A reservation form containing detailed information about your booked tour, as well as your personal details and contact information to be completed. You will need to return the form with these details duly filled out, which will be used for the organization of your trip. Please also send us a scan of your passports.
A travel invoice requesting a deposit payment of 25% of the total price.

The organization of your trip will be confirmed upon receipt of the completed form and once the deposit is in our possession. We will also send you a travel contract that certifies the details of your trip, including the duration, travel dates, deposit paid, and your contact information."

6. What is the price of the trip?

The price displayed on our website does not include international flights and is calculated based on 4 people with standard hotels. Our tours are private with custom services, so the price varies depending on the travel period, the selected service category, and especially the number of travelers. Please contact us for a detailed quote for your trip.

7. Can I make changes to the itinerary?

Yes, it is entirely possible to make changes to the provided itinerary. We specialize in private and tailor-made trips, and our advisors will be able to adjust the program according to your every wish.

8. How can I make payments on-site? Which currencies are accepted?

International cards such as Visa or Mastercard are widely accepted in hotels, shops, and restaurants. However, please note that Vietnamese banks may apply an additional commission of 3% to 4% for this type of payment.

You can also pay in euros or USD at some businesses in major cities (hotels, restaurants, etc.). However, for small expenses, it is more advantageous to have Vietnamese Dong (VND). You can easily exchange currency at banks, jewelry shops, or even at your hotel. You can also withdraw VND from ATMs.

9. When and how is the balance of the trip paid?

As for the balance payment, you can settle it in one of the following ways:

In cash upon your arrival. We accept US dollars and Euros (USD/EUR exchange rate calculated on the day of payment). However, we do not accept defaced or excessively old banknotes. We kindly ask you to obtain new bills from your bank to avoid any inconveniences during your trip.
By credit card upon your arrival at our office (using our credit card terminal). In this case, there is an additional fee of 3% for our bank if you pay with Visa or Mastercard and 4% for payments with Amex. Payment is made in the local currency.
By bank transfer: We request that you complete this transfer no later than 10 days before your departure. This is to ensure that the balance of your trip is credited to our account before the start of your journey

10. What are the payment terms?

To make the deposit payment, you have two options:

Bank transfer: Our account details are provided in the travel invoice.
Credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) through our bank's secure website. This payment method includes insurance as part of the card services (cancellation insurance, medical coverage, repatriation, etc.). However, please note that you will incur additional fees for our bank with this option: 3% extra on the deposit if you pay with Visa or Mastercard, and 4% extra on the deposit if you pay with American Express. Payment is made in the local currency."

August 18, 2025 - Hello Lan Duong, I’m finally taking the time to write to thank you for the excellent work in organizing and managing our trip to Vietnam. We absolutely loved the itinerary—everything was perfect! The guides you chose were fantastic. Huan and Hong Anh Dang were so knowledgeable and shared so much about your beautiful country with us. Their English was excellent, and it was also wonderful to have a female guide on the team. The hotels were great, and the evenings spent with local families were a real highlight. The bus was very comfortable, and the driver was friendly, careful, and professional—TOP marks! We were especially lucky with our Halong Bay cruise: only ten people on the boat, a fantastic guide, and the weather was incredible—clear skies and perfect visibility. We’ve already recommended your services to a friend who lives in Ho Chi Minh City and often hosts visitors—he will definitely reach out to you. All the food throughout the trip was deli

July 27, 2025 - Hello, first of all, we would like to thank your company for the warm welcome, kindness, flexibility, and above all, the quick responses and excellent overall service quality. You listened to us and perfectly solved every little issue we encountered. This is truly a trustworthy travel agency that travelers can fully rely on. Thanks to your support, our trip became smooth and truly unforgettable. Regarding the guides, the first thing to highlight is their very good command of French. All of them were friendly, always smiling, and knowledgeable. We keep wonderful memories of each one. At the start of our journey, since we knew nothing about Vietnam, our guide in Hanoi, Hoa, had the difficult task of introducing us to the country’s culture and history. He succeeded brilliantly, making us eager to discover many aspects of your culture. The visit to the Museum of Ethnology and the Temple of Literature, as well as experiencing the bustling life of Hanoi, will remain
