Getting Around

The new high-speed railway (LCR) has revolutionized travel between Vientiane and Luang Prabang; slow boats on the Mekong are a classic way to travel; Tuk-tuks and jumbos are common for short city trips; motorbikes can be rented but require caution on rural roads.

Cultural Etiquette

Greetings (Nop) involve placing palms together; feet are considered low, so never point them at people or religious statues; touching someone's head is offensive; dress modestly (shoulders and knees covered) in villages and temples.

Internet & Connectivity
