3 Days 2 Nights/Laos Tours Vientiane Tours

Life is an eternal circulation of fill and re-fill of chaos and worries. Why don’t you reward yourself only a few minutes of relaxation? 3 days is more than enough for Vientiane, the city of the moon, to gift you a missing “beat” among the endless squabbles. Start your journey with Wat Sisaket, the oldest surviving monastery or former royal temple of Wat Prakeo then finish the first day with That Luang, a gold-covered large Buddhist stupa, and Patuxay Monument, the gate of Triumph. Before your return, revel in peaceful scenery over the Nam Ngum, Lao’s largest freshwater lake which is surrounded by untouched mountains and mottled with forested islands.

On arrival at the Vientiane Capital, you will be met and transferred to your centrally located hotel.

After a short rest, we start visiting the major sights of the capital; including the Wat Sisaket, the oldest temple with thousands of miniature Buddha statues and the former royal temple of Wat Prakeo, which previously housed the famous Emerald Buddha Image. Enroute to Lao’s national precious heritage, the famous and sacred structure of That Luang Stupa, you will have the opportunity to take some pictures of the imposing Patuxay Monument, which is well known as Vientiane’s own Arc de Triumph.

On arrival at the lake, we embark on a long tail boat visiting fisherman villages in varied islets. We visit some beautiful islets and take a short walk to explore the lifestyle of the local fishmen.
