GETTING EXCITED IN VANG VIENG~~ THE BEST BACKPACKERS HANGOUT!!

Beautiful country side scenery

Finish with exploring the Vietnam and now it’s the day to cross the country moving to our next destination which is Laos. Much people don’t really find Laos as a good tourism place to visit and I am here to prove that you guys are wrong. The first place to go is Vang Vieng that famous with white water rafting and tubing activities.

There is no direct route from Hanoi to Vang Vieng so we need to go to Viantiane first before proceed to Vang Vieng. The bus fare will cost you about RM 90. It is the direct route that involves a long and strenuous 24 hours journey from Hanoi to Viantiane however you will be accompanied by a well worth scenery along the journey. If you want to know more info about the bus here is the link.

From Viantiane to Vang Vieng you can purchase tickets for tourist buses or minivans at almost every guesthouse. VIP buses from Vientiane cost about RM 20 while for minivans cost in between RM 4 to RM 20. You can get a hostel as low as RM 2/night with five person per dorm but well the condition obviously suit with its price.

Double decker wooden bed in the Ancient Palace.

Ancient Palace is one of the best voted hostel in Vang Vieng. It is a unique tree-house style hostel that no other place got. An interesting hostel to stay at with a very natural scenery of a village area. Known also as Spicylaos Backpackers guesthouse.

Its okay though since you will be out for most of the time and not staying in the room. If you prefer a more comfortable room you can triple your money and get it at Nine Nois Place.
