Testimonials from our travelers
An adventure rich in discoveries (ethnic groups, landscapes). A breathtaking region, a very welcoming people, the end of the journey in Luang Prabang to finish beautifully in this charming and unique city, which invites contemplation and nonchalance. A superbly organized itinerary, with no downtime. An excellent guide. Only problem: we should have stayed another month!
Discovery of a truly authentic country. The culture shock is magnified, but what a wonderful welcome from the different ethnic groups, villagers, and merchants. Luang Prabang is a pleasant city brimming with architectural treasures. The night market allows for interaction with the local population. The encounter with the monks and the spiritual aspect truly captured my attention. Southern Laos charmed us with the Vat Phou temple, a first glimpse of the journey towards Cambodia before the Khong islands… magnificent vegetation and meeting the local people is a grand experience!
Wonderful trip to Laos. Authentic and splendid landscapes. The Laotians are truly charming and very welcoming.
We were truly delighted with this trip to Laos, which amazed us from start to finish. The hotels were carefully chosen, all our hosts were lovely, and the trek/homestay part was simply unique. We loved Luang Prabang, especially the day with Mr. Wang who shared his city with great generosity. […]
If we loved this trip to Laos, we owe it of course to the beauty of the country and the kindness of its inhabitants, but also to our wonderful guide Sengdao who was a marvelous human encounter for us. A million thanks!
Everything was well organized and pleasant! We loved our guide. We enjoyed the village visits, bathing the elephants, the cruises, the landscapes, the gentleness of the Laotians. We appreciated the hotels and their magnificent river views. We truly loved this country and its people! Thank you!
Very good trip overall. Bravo for the elephant ride, the Mekong descent, the picnic with the Muang La guide, the river trek, and the orchid trek.
The program, established according to our requests, was well-balanced and the pace suited us perfectly. We appreciated being able to unpack our bags for more than one night in Muang La, Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng, and Don Khone.
Very good overall impression: pleasant encounters, discovery of local populations (ethnic groups) in the villages, very interesting, sometimes moving (the families, their way of life, their kindness). Journeys sometimes a bit long, but this is entirely understandable given the geographical context.
We will cherish very fond memories of our stay in Laos, which is still preserved from mass tourism and still seems authentic to us. We had wonderful encounters with the Laotian people and were able to contemplate magnificent landscapes, particularly through treks and cruises on the Mekong.

When to visit Laos?
The best period is October to April — dry season, pleasant temperatures. The rainy season (May to September) is also possible: lush landscapes and fewer tourists, but some roads can be difficult. Asia Safari advises you according to the region and type of trip.
Laos, the heart of your Indochina tour
Laos is often the surprise of a trip: uncrowded, authentic, with a quiet beauty. Asia Safari makes Laos much more than a stopover — we make it the central experience of your stay, before or after Vietnam, Cambodia, or Thailand.
Our most requested Indochina combinations
Laos + Cambodia: A classic — temples of Luang Prabang and Angkor Wat, Mekong and Tonlé Sap. 15 days minimum recommended.
Laos + Vietnam: Two contrasting countries — the calm of Laos and the energy of Vietnam. From Hanoi to Vientiane or vice versa.
Northern Laos + Yunnan: For travelers seeking originality — travel from Yunnan to Laos via the Laos-China railway (inaugurated 2021).
Grand Indochina Tour (40 days): Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand — a memorable trip for life.
Tips for preparing your multi-country tour
Visas: each country has its own rules — Asia Safari guides you through all procedures.
Ideal duration: allow a minimum of 12 to 15 days for a 2-country combination.
Seasons: seasons vary by country — we help you choose the best window.
Budget: prices vary greatly by country. Laos is cheaper than Vietnam or Thailand.
Our Story
Jean-Paul Duvergé arrived in Laos at the turn of the 2000s, fell in love with the country, and decided to stay. In 2002, he founded Asia Safari with a simple idea: to offer French-speaking travelers direct access to authentic Lao life, without the filter of large Parisian agencies. Since then, the agency has assisted thousands of travelers, built a network of trusted guides and partners, and refined its philosophy: rigorous tailor-made travel, serving authenticity.
What sets us apart
We are on site: Our team works from Vientiane. We know the roads, seasons, accommodations, guides — and what changed last week. No outdated brochures.
We speak your language: Asia Safari is a 100% French-speaking agency. All our communications, proposals, and guides speak French.
Zero intermediaries: You work directly with us. No central purchasing, no Parisian subcontractors. Fairer prices and higher service quality.
Tailor-made as our only model: We do not have standardized tours. Each trip is designed from scratch, according to your dates, budget, desires, and traveler profile.
Our commitment
Asia Safari actively supports responsible tourism in Laos: prioritizing local accommodations, tours that benefit village communities, respect for cultural and natural sites.
Laos in figures
Area: 236,800 km² | Population: approximately 7.9 million inhabitants | Capital: Vientiane | Official language: Lao | Religion: Theravada Buddhism (65% of the population) | Currency: Lao Kip (LAK) | Time zone: UTC+7
Laos must-sees
Luang Prabang: Former royal capital, a UNESCO World Heritage site, its golden temples, French colonial houses, and gentle way of life make it an undeniable favorite.
Vientiane: The human-sized capital — That Luang, Patuxai, and the banks of the Mekong are worth a visit.
Vang Vieng: Surrounded by limestone karsts, ideal for kayaking, caving, and hiking.
Southern Laos and 4000 Islands: Champassak, the Vat Phou temples (UNESCO), the Bolaven Plateau, and the Mekong islands.
Lao culture
Theravada Buddhism permeates all of Lao life. The alms giving (offerings to monks at dawn) in Luang Prabang is a daily ritual of great beauty. Lao festivals — Boun Pi Mai (Lao New Year in April), Boun Ok Phansa (Festival of Lights) — are exceptional times to travel.
Nature and biodiversity
Laos is 70% covered by forests. Its protected areas are home to rare species: Asian elephants, gibbons, sun bears. The rivers and plateaus offer natural settings of rare purity in Asia.
