Nong Khiaw is a small rustic town by the bridge crossing the Ou River in Northern Laos. This little settlement is blessed with probably the some of the most attractive natural settings: Vertical limestone mountains, the river and forest.
Getting there:
We can travel between Nong Khiaw and Luang Prabang either by road or by river. Buses leave from Luang Prabang Northern Bus Station in the morning around 8.30 and then again around 10.00 and 12.00. Schedules tend to fluctuate, so please check before travelling.
The river trip, at the other hand is by far the most interesting. It is more expensive, but it's worth every penny it cost. Boats leave in the morning and departure schedule depends on the number of passengers. In the low season they sometimes have difficulty filling up, which means that you will have to charter or partly charter the boats if you wish to go.
