  • Excellent private day tour of Vientiane!

    Loved this day tour — it showed me the best of Vientiane in just one day! The tour started with a pickup from my hotel at 10 am by my guide, Chansay, and ended with a drop-off around 4:30–5 pm. I learned a lot about the history of Laos and visited many notable sites in and around the city, including Buddha Park, Patuxai Gate, Pha That Luang Stupa, Wat Sisaket Temple, Khop Chai Deu Restaurant (for lunch), Ho Phra Keo Royal Museum, the Presidential Palace, the COPE Visitor Center, and Wat Simuang. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and want to give a big thank you to my guide Chansay and his driver Youy for such an engaging and informative tour! If you’re looking for a quality day tour that lets you see Vientiane in just one day, I highly recommend this one.

    This was a great experience around Vientaine. The van was clean, comfortable and new. The air conditioning was fabulous on a very hot day. Our guide and drivere were great, and we saw way more than we would have been able to on our own. Thanks for the great tour!

    It was my first visit to Laos. I was very lucky to be assigned to Som as a guide who introduced me to the beauties of Vientiane in one day, explained a lot about history, country and people and was very helpful in implementing my other planned activities in Laos. Som was really an excellent guide, the best thing that could happen to me as a first time guest in this country. Anytime again!

  • Great visit to visit Vinciane quickly

    It was a great experience. Accompanied by my guide and a driver, I could quickly see the essentials of Vinciane and especially the Buddha Park a little distant. My guide also listened to my preferences for lunch and we ate in a small local restaurant with typical Lao cuisine. It was also a great time to discuss the culinary traditions of Laos.

    Bandith was an exceptionally good guide. He was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and patient. The tour provided some really interesting insights into Vientiane, its culture and its history. The restaurant that Bandith recommended to us for lunch was in a delightful setting, and the food we had was tasty. All in all, a day well spent.

    to explore Laos, i feel it is beneficial to have a local tour guide who knows the history and is excited to share for tourists and people with interest. Toy, my guide, was amazing. very insightful and detailed in his story-telling. it made for an amazing day.

  • Great tour of spiritual and culturally significant sights by private car

    Emma M,Jan 11, 2026

    I love the day I spent with Chansay seeing many of the spiritually and culturally significant sights in Vientiane. It was New Year's Day and we had an early start so it meant we missed the crowds at Buddha Park which was great. Chansay was very friendly and knowledgeable about Vientiane, it's history and about Laos and its people in general. His English is very good and he's very accommodating for changing up the schedule. I had already seen one of the sights on the itinerary so we skipped that one and added in a couple of extra temples not listed. Some of Vientiane's key sights require some kind of transport to get to, and even walkable sights are spread fairly far apart in Vientiane, so it was definitely worth doing a tour with a driver. I felt very well looked after and I would highly recommend this tour.
