3 days from Chiang Mai to Luang Prabang by slow boat, with a Thai–Laos border crossing and overnight stops in Huay Xai and Pak Beng.

It’s a fraction of the price and you don’t have to hang around repeatedly with horrendous lack of communication. Firstly I…”

“Meget skuffende. Intet besøg ved Det hvide tempel. Total forvirrende med busserne. Guiden kom for sent til grænsen, så måtte selv stå for visum. Guiden forsøgte at snyde mig med at veksle penge og tog overpris for simkort. Guiden er kun på første stop og ikke med på slowboaten. Så det er IKKE en guidet…”
