When to go?

The rainy season is May to late October; hot, humid and wet. November to mid February is the cool season – but still hot, making this a great time to come. Mid February to May is the hot season and out in the rice fields the lushness disappears, but 85% of Laos is forested mountain, so expect the place to be green. Luang Prabang gets much less rain than Vientiane.

Features include:

• Walk to restaurants (offsite)
• Internet access
