Sommaz Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) First I'm assuming you mean Laos! If you want to make a bit of adventure out of it, you can get yourself to Bangkok train Station (Hualamphong), take the overnight sleeper train to Nongkhai. Then get a bus from Nongkhai to Vientane. I must admit that on the way back I decided to get a cab to Udon Thani from where I flew back! Yes, Air Asia does some cheap flights 2,400 THB return. Sleeper train (VIP car) 1,000 THB Oh, if you remember, please bring back some Beer Lao (or Loa) for me, thanks Edited August 8, 2008 by Sommaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
