LaosTravel Tips

 

Laos Communications and Transportations
Communications
Postal service:
The General Post Office (GPO) is beside the Morning Market in Vientiane. Normal mail service is inexpensive and generally reliable, however for urgent or valuable mail (either to or from Laos) EMS or courier service is recommended.

Telephone:
The GPO offers public telephones for local, national and international calls. Phone card (available at appointed shops) booths available for domestic and overseas calls. Most large hotels have IDD lines, but calls are expensive. Country code: 856. Outgoing international code: 00.

Newspapers:
English-language "Vientiane Times" and French-language "Le Renovateur"

Email/Internet:
PlaNet has cybercafes in both Vientiane (Setthathirat Road) and Luang Prabang (near the museum)

 
Transportations

Local transport:
Public transportation in Vientiane is very basic. 3 and 4-wheeled taxis are mostly old, not metered and few drivers speak English. New metered taxi or "lavi taxis" can be hired in Vientiane.

Airport:
Vientiane-Wattay International, 4km from the city, approx. 20 mins from town. Taxis available, but the rate (approx. US$4) is negotiable.

Airport tax:
International flights: US$10 Domestic flights: 1,000 kip

Car hire:
Available, but traffic still undisciplined. Hiring a car with a knowledgeable driver is often a better and safer alternative
