Frequently asked questions about hostels in Laos

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit?

    For budget travellers, exploring the stunning natural landscapes is key. Kuang Si Falls near Luang Prabang offers breathtaking scenery for a small entrance fee. Similarly, the Pak Ou Caves, also near Luang Prabang, are a fascinating and inexpensive excursion. Wandering through Luang Prabang's charming streets and visiting the numerous temples, many of which are free to enter, is another affordable option. Finally, taking a slow boat down the Mekong River offers incredible views and is remarkably cheap.
  • What are the best hostels in Laos?

    Among the hostels in Laos, Sanga Hostel, Naga Hostel & Café and Vang Vieng Chill House are the most popular ones.

  • Which airports handle most of the air traffic to and from Laos?

    Wattay International Airport (VTE) in Vientiane handles the majority of international flights. Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ) is another significant airport, particularly for tourists heading to that region.
  • What are the best hostels with a pool in Laos?

  • What currency is used in Laos?

  • What are the best hostels with a jacuzzi in Laos?

  • How easy is it to navigate the roads in Laos?

    Road travel in Laos can be challenging. While the main roads connecting major cities are generally paved, many smaller roads are unpaved and can be difficult to navigate, especially during the rainy season. The quality of roads varies greatly. Hiring a driver or using organised tours is often a safer and more convenient option.

    The best hostels for families and kids in Laos are Nana Backpackers Hostel, Vang Vieng Freedom View Hostel and Mama Leurth Sunset Guesthouse.

  • How can travellers best respect local customs while in Laos?

    Respectful behaviour in Laos involves modest dress when visiting temples (shoulders and knees covered), removing your shoes before entering homes or some temples, seeking permission before taking photographs of people, and refraining from public displays of affection. A gentle 'sabaidee' (hello) goes a long way.
  • What are the best pet friendly hostels in Laos?

    The best pet friendly hostels in Laos are Vang Vieng Freedom View Hostel, Luang Prabang Hostel and La Casa Hostel.

  • What are the key emergency contacts for medical or safety concerns in Laos?

  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Laos?

    For a weekend trip, Luang Prabang provides a perfect blend of cultural sights and natural beauty, easily explored within a couple of days. Alternatively, a shorter trip to Vang Vieng would allow for some relaxation and exploration of the surrounding areas.
  • Are there specific regions in Laos known for great weather?
