Can you suggest an itinerary that involves both the LuangSay Cruise and Vat Phou?
It is easy to include both the LuangSay and Vat Phou Cruises in a trip to Laos. Following is a suggested itinerary that can be used as a base, and expanded or moulded to fit your plans. For the purposes of this itinerary we have suggested travelling from North to South, but the trip can easily be done in the other direction. Days 1-2. Enter at Houei Say and take the Luang Say Cruise via the LuangSay Lodge to Luang Prabang. Days 3-4. Explore Luang Prabang. Days 5-6. Make your way to Vientiane, either by air or by land via Vang Vieng. Explore Vientiane. Day 7-9. Make your way down to Pakse. This can be done by overnight VIP bus, or by flight from Vientiane. Take the Vat Phou Cruise. After the cruise, make your way from Pakse across the border to Ubon Ratchathani in Thailand, and across to Bangkok. It is also possible to disembark at the end of the cruise, at the Cambodian border and travel overland to Phnom Penh.
