Trasllats compartits entre Vang Vieng i Luang Prabang

The shared city transfer from Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng was smooth and well-organized. The departure at 8:30 AM was punctual, and the vehicle was comfortable, though the winding roads might not suit those prone to motion sickness. The scenic views along the route were a bonus, making the 5-6 hour journey enjoyable overall. A great value for money for travelers!

While a van is an option, the train is a far superior choice for getting from Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang. Our 6-hour van trip was marred by the rough, bumpy roads, making it a very unpleasant experience.

Driver was on time and made multiple stops along the way for toilet breaks. He was also strategic in planning the pit stops along the way in picking up other passengers. Do note the ride is pretty long and very bumpy, so be sure to come prepared if you are easily prone to motion sickness. Driver is really experienced in navigating those potholes, so that’s another plus side. 👍🏾

Van is clean and not crowded. Driver is polite and ensure everyone is safe since it was quite a long drive.

good driver.. the road was in bad condition. it took almost 5 hours. the car was clean and comfortable.

시간이 6시간 걸리고 자리가 비좁고 도로가 비포장 도로라 힘들어요 그래도 시원하게 에어컨 틀어주니 올만 하답니다. 가급적 기차를 이용하시고 부득이하게 기차가 매진이라 못 구했을때 이용하시길 ~

단기여행자라면 시간적인 문제로 추천하지 않습니다. 점심시간 포함해서 5시간 30분~6시간 정도 소요됩니다. 다만 장기여행자라면 라오스의 시골풍경과 멋있는 산악지형을 구경하며 중간에 현지 휴계소에서 식사도 할 수 있는 기회가 있습니다. 중간에 타고 내리는 라오스분들도 있어서 새로운 경험을 할 수 있어요....

멋진 풍경과 지쳐 쓰러져 나가는 사람들...여섯시간 산길 비포장 도로 자신 있으시면 도전 해보시던가 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ전 개인적으로 만족😏

There were a few issues with this booking. First, our pickup was about an hour late from our scheduled departure time. Also, because the booking confirmation advised to be in the hotel lobby 30 minutes early, we ended up waiting for an hour and a half for our tuk tuk to arrive and take us to the bus station. While the minivan itself was clean and comfortable, the ride on the new (still partially unfinished road) was a bit scary. There was one point where our van got stuck for a minute on a dirt section where the road was running right along a high cliff. Our driver had to back up and I had to tell him to stop afraid that he would go too far and we’d all fall over the cliff to our deaths. Yes, the scenery is beautiful, but getting there safely and alive is a lot more important. Also, as a winding mountain road in many sections, be aware that anyone who suffers from motion sickness might have a hard time with this route. After all of this, the driver gave us another hassle as we were approaching Luang Prabang. He said he’d only drop us at the bus station outside of town (where we’d have to get a tuk tuk on our own) unless we paid him an extra 30,000 kip to be driven directly to our hotel. I insisted that we wouldn’t accept this as the booking voucher clearly states that both hotel pick-up AND drop-off are included in this transfer. I showed him the booking voucher and tried to explain, but he kept insisting that we needed to pay more to be taken to our hotel. When we refused to be dropped at the bus station, the driver said something meaning that he would take us to where he lived. Luckily for us, where he stopped was just around the corner from our hotel and an easy walk for us. Despite that, however, we still shouldn’t have been put through all this trouble and hassling. If you’re looking to take this route (or if we ever do again- we loved both Vang Vieng and especially Luang Prabang), I would probably recommend taking the big bus along the older highway. Yes, it takes longer (6 hours versus 4), but it’s safer, involves less hassle, motion sickness, and I’ve heard is even more scenic.

It was good enough. It’s what you would expect. It’s a curvy ride so if you get car sickness bring something to prevent it. The driver can’t stop the road from being curvy. Made many stops. But also keep in mind the toilets are all squatters.
