Vientiane is the capital of Laos, which still has a provincial feel to it and is a pleasant place to explore on foot.
Tree-lined boulevards and elegant architecture testify to its years under French occupation, in particular the Patuxai, which is a smaller, Asian version of Paris’s Arc de Triomphe.
This colonial past mingles with even older temples such as Wat Si Saket and That Luang, rich with the country’s historic, spiritual and national heritage.
Many of the handicraft centres and restaurants in the city work with the local community to ensure traditional values are not lost and we encourage our clients to visit such projects.

Although Luang Prabang is often seen as the obvious highlight of the country, the South differs vastly from other areas in Laos and is certainly worth exploring.
