4.From Chiangrai: Slow Baot to Loas (Luangprabang) 2-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 56 reviews · 2 days · from $73Best value

Leave Chiang Rai at 5:00 to 5:30 a.m. with a van, cross into Laos with help from a local guide, then ride a public slow boat via Pakbeng to Luang Prabang. The $73 fare includes transfers and boat tickets, but not your Laos visa, meals, or Pakbeng hotel.

“It was a great way to meet other people on a similar trail. The views were ok. The getting off of the boat process was frustrating! The staff pulled the bags up out of the hold and just piled them up. Luckily, some clever thinking passengers helped with the off boarding process and organization of the bags. When we got off at Land Prabang, the only form of transport to town was tuktuk. They knew this, and they take advantage of it. They tried to charge us 100,000Kip each but we got it for 50,000 each. They then hurried us off so no one else heard this price. People need…”
