Luang Prabang, Laos - The Essential - Tours, Markets, Elephants, Food

Thank you for a great vid. We’ve added this new destination to our list.

Great video, thank you. Visiting soon!

The easiest way to get a visa is on arrival, not online; $10 (350 baht) for a seat on a minibus to town per person is not 'cheap'., the equivalent relatively short distance in Thailand would be more like $4 (150 baht). The Riverside is an overpriced hotel choice for those for whom money is no object, there are plenty of other very comfortable similar places to stay elsewhere in town which are at a much more realistic and affordable rate.

The place is now ruined by hundreds of Thai tour mini-bus most of which park along the riverbank road, and generally clog up the town; and consequently the place is over run with Thai tourists. To cater for all these people, Luang Prabang has built a modern ugly 'food centre' right in town which is complete with a performance stage emitting over loud music and announcements in true Thai style. Over the last 20 years I have often spent time in LB with all its local charm; however I will not go there again.

Love this video..and subscribed

Very interesting information..i also like the fact that you travel alone, like me😊...tell me ,is 80 euros per day is a good badget for luang prabang?

My vacation in Laos was awesome. Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng are absolutely amazing places. The butterfly garden is beautiful. My children love it.

I visited Luang Prabang in January, everywhere was packed with people

Im really impressed by your video! Keep making these.I LOVE IT

This is very helpful!

I tend to agree with the $50 Us, I've travelled 300 kms in a small van spent over half of the 2 days discovering stayed the night for $5 got the same bus back to Chaing Mai, $10 US same up to Chaing Rai, across the Mekong to Laos, massive buffet lunch 14 hour return trip stopping seeing heaps, shopping, about the same cost, $15 US.

$50 to Kuang Si, you got ripped I'm afraid...
