Vientiane Tours and Trips

I enjoyed every moment of the trip. The daily itinerary was very varied and well lead by our guide Tra and his assistant guides in Laos. The hotel's were well chosen and conveniently situated for independent sightseeing. I thoroughly enjoyed the included farewell meal, the best vegetarian food all trip!

We were lucky to accompany the team on our trip to this Indochina island. I appreciate your expertise and enthusiasm. Every destination has its own impressions thanks to the enthusiastic introduction of the tour guide. In his free time, he suggested places to eat and shop. Overall, I am satisfied with this trip.

Really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Jackie was superb, well organised and always positive. One of the best Explore guides we've ever had! I would slightly change the itinerary on the first day in Vientiane. I would include the Buddha Park as part of the itinerary and go straight there for lunch from the Victory Gate rather than have a 45 minute break at the hotel, as it was too rushed at the Buddha Park.

Apologies for this belated review. The Laos trip was led by the attentive, convivial and competent Quang. It's great to have someone else keep an eye on everything! The three key destinations gave us a bird's eye view of this diverse country. The optional tours were a great idea as it left scope for personal needs and interests. I loved the walks via villages; was moved by the visit to the landmine agency; sparked by the differences in the locations e.g. Luang Prabang sunset and (not all) older tourist hospitality (visited Ikon Bar); the age-old caves and Buddhist temples.

We spent 4 weeks travelling through Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia, we thoroughly enjoyed this trip, all our guides were excellent, they were very friendly , helpful, organised and informative. The trip itinerary was quite full on with plenty of variety with a combination of busy cities, pretty quieter towns, rural locations, stunning lagoons, rivers and waterfalls, peaceful boat trips, an overnight sleeper train, optional cycling activities, plenty of stunning temples and palaces, fabulous food and warm and friendly locals. There were also quite a few interesting activities such as the Cu chi tunnels in Vietnam and also some thought provoking, more somber moments such as visits to the Remnant’s museum in Vietnam, the genocide museum and killing fields in Cambodia.

The experience we had was a once in a lifetime opportunity! From the knowledge and the amount you were able to do in a day. There was always something for everyone.
