Arrival in Vientiane

Welcome to Laos. Our driver will greet you at Wattay Airport and transfer you to your hotel in a private minivan. Check into your room and relax. During your free day, we recommend taking a stroll along the Mekong River to the Naga Boat. Resting on a sandy beach, this floating venue only appears at the end of summer when the water level rises. The atmosphere there is warm and inviting.
