Hold Aussie passport so have to go to Laos for 60 days seems to b a few companies doing it anyone have any experience of using any of them ?

Failing that might go to dmk get a flight up

Using agents in Laos is not recommended, rip offs and that, Do it yourself, come to embassy early before they open, and you be out in no time.

No wonder you ended up in Aus! Your post makes dyslexics look daft!

Anyhow, back on topic, just make your way up there and enjoy the trip!

Laos Airlines leave from Suvarnabhumi Airport. Problem with using an agent is having to sit on a minibus for twelve hours each way. On the plus side, they do the paperwork for you. Take your pick.

If you are only going for a single entry Tourist Visa, why not go to Malaysia? You'll save on the Laos visa fee, the flight is cheaper and you can fly from U-Tapao

The 12 hour minibus trip is about as fun as going to work with a hangover..But once you get

to Laos its kind of relaxing and the trip back seems to go pretty fast...

I would Never recommend to do this trip alone...Its not remotely worth it for a few saved Baht..

Trust me I have done the trip at least 6 times....
