Can you tell me something about the traffic situation in Laos?

Traveling in Laos, the traffic problem is relatively easy to solve. Next, I'll introduce you to the city traffic and intercity traffic one by one.

Because there are no buses in Laos, the traffic in the city mainly depends on buses. Tug car is similar to domestic electric tricycle, but it uses an engine. Chug-chug car is full of power, and there is basically no place that can't be reached. A car can seat many people. I remember that I brought twelve people the most.

Generally, drivers who rush to see you are tourists will make an offer, and the price is surprisingly high. At this time, you can only bargain for half, because the competition pressure of peers is great, and you are not afraid of not getting a car. It's really impossible to go up a little. Generally, the price of two kilometers is 20 thousand kip.

If you want more flexibility, you can choose to rent a motorcycle. Generally, Vientiane, Wanrong and Luang Prabang have places to rent. But you must wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle, or you will be fined if you are caught by the traffic police. If you don't have a driver's license, you'd better not ride a motorcycle without authorization. Some traffic policemen specialize in catching foreign tourists and then make money from them.

There are two kinds of intercity transportation, one is plane and the other is bus. There are only Vientiane and Luang Prabang airports, and there are few choices, so most of them take buses. There are three main types of buses: express bus, VIP bus (long-distance bus) and Minvian (nine-seat van). If you want to be comfortable, it is recommended to take a van.

Tickets can be bought at the bus station or booked directly at the hotel. If you don't care about the price difference, you can book a lot directly at the hotel. Because the hotel reservation will be more expensive, but everything has been arranged for you, and even there is a special car to take you to the station, which can save a lot of time and save the time of looking for the window and queuing.
