Know Before You Go

Language

The national language is Lao, but English is commonly used in major tourist centers.

Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai are also widely understood.

French, German, Russian, and several other European languages are spoken by many educated Lao due to higher education in Europe during the 1970s-1990s.

Weather

Laos generally enjoys a mild tropical climate, but it can get quite chilly during the cool season.

Temperatures range from 10 to 40 degrees Celsius in the Mekong Valley.

Currency

The official currency of the Lao PDR is the Kip.

Banknotes in circulation include 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, and 100,000 Kip.

The best currencies for exchanging money are US Dollars, Euros, and Thai Baht.

Currency exchange is possible at banks, airports, and foreign currency exchange offices.

Travel with Children

Laos is a safe and peaceful country, suitable for both adults and children.

Lao people are fond of kids, and children provide opportunities for positive interactions with locals.

Credit Cards

Visa, Master Card, and American Express are accepted mainly in larger hotels, restaurants, and souvenir shops in major cities like Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Savannakhet, and Champasack.

Internet

Internet access is available in many hotels, guesthouses, and restaurants in urban areas.

Internet cafes are also present in provincial capitals, but rural areas might have limited connectivity.

Healthcare

Laos offers basic healthcare services.

Precautionary measures such as consuming well-cooked food, drinking bottled water, staying hydrated, avoiding mosquito bites, and wearing protective clothing can prevent common ailments.

Hospital Information

Important scans and documents on hardcopy and on Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.

Prescriptions for any medication you require. (Note: Most Lao chemists will sell medicine without a script, but if you are searched by immigration, it's good to be able to show you need the medicine you carry.)

Credit cards—not all in the same bag, please, and not all of them in your day-to-day wallet

Light sleeping bag or blanket for cleanliness if you hang out at backpacker places; other than that, only for trips around October till February

Sun protection, a hat, mosquito spray, and sunscreen (enough of it)
