Why a tour

in Vietnam and Laos ?

While Vietnam shares its southern border with Cambodia, it borders Laos to the north. It is therefore quite feasible and easy to visit northern Vietnam (and also the central region) and Laos for dedicated circuits especially focused on discovering the stunning landscapes and populations living in the mountains.

Both Vietnam and Laos are home to numerous ethnic minorities whose lives are shaped by the agricultural seasons in the mountains. You can choose a combined Vietnam and Laos circuit to discover the culture of several populations that you will encounter throughout your journey, such as the Hmong people in northern Vietnam or the Khmu, considered the first inhabitants of Laos.

You could also choose a combined trip to northern Vietnam and Laos to discover superb destinations such as Lan Ha Bay and Ninh Binh (also known as the Terrestrial Halong Bay), destinations in the north such as Sapa, Ha Giang or Mu Cang Chai and Pu Luong, as well as Luang Prabang in Laos.

To discover Laos

Like Vietnam, Laos also experienced a very deadly war of independence, receiving an unimaginable number of bombs from the Americans (more than during the entire Second World War). The country, with just over 6 million inhabitants, is gradually developing and now focuses on tourism. Enclaved between Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Myanmar, Laos is developing natural and discovery tourism, particularly in the mountainous North. The landscapes of Laos, around Vang Vieng and in the higher North than Luang Prabang, are indeed worth admiring!

In addition to its mountainous landscapes, the territory of Laos has a rich history that you will discover especially through the visit of the city of Luang Prabang. The Buddhist temples in the city have been beautifully renovated to allow you to immerse yourself in the history of the Lan Xang Kingdom (1353-1707), of which Luang Prabang was the spiritual capital.

The Lao population, diverse and still rooted in its traditions, will also charm you with its kindness.

Climate in Laos

Pays tout en longueur comme le Vietnam, le Laos possède un climat tropical similaire à ce dernier. La saison sèche y dure de novembre à fin février, et il faut s’attendre à des températures relativement froides au nord du pays lors de cette période, comme à Luang Prabang où le mercure peut même tutoyer les 0°. Le pays accueille de fortes chaleurs du mois de Mars à Juin, avant que les pluies ne rafraichissent un peu les températures (il fait néanmoins toujours chaud). Le mois d’avril y est particulièrement chaud, avec des maximales allant de 35 à 42°.  La saison des pluies dure quant à elle de fin Mai au mois d’Octobre – septembre étant le mois le plus pluvieux de l’année. 

Cuisine from Laos

Le riz gluant (khao niao) est la base de l’alimentation au Laos. Il est la plupart du temps servi dans des petits paniers en bambou. La manière de le manger rappellera à certains leurs voyages en Afrique : faites une boulette avec le riz et trempez là dans le plat. Un peu comme du pain ! Vous goûterez certains plats traditionnels comme le laap, salade traditionnelle composée de viande et de beaucoup d’herbes aromatiques ! A Luang Prabang, vous pourrez déguster en apéritif la célèbre saucisse grillée et sucrée ! Sachez en tout cas que la cuisine Lao se rapproche de celle de la Thailande, par conséquent elle peut s’avérer assez relevé (épicé) !
