We very much enjoyed the Live Lao for one day Tour with our guide Ere, thanks again!! We could try some great local food and got to see and learn about some parts of the city that we definitely would have missed otherwise. We highly recommend doing a tour with the original TukTukSafari from Vientiane!
Lovely guide, reliable service and although not his fault, many things were closed due to travelling at Song Krang so although good was limited, still a really lovely tour to the food market, big temple, festival and local eating area.
I was travelling alone and could join another solo traveller for a day tour. Very interesting, safe and fun. It's not cheap but if you are only spending a short time in Vientiane, this tour gives you a great insight. Totally recommend Ere. 😊
Ere is a great guide, excellent English and lovely personality - the tours are relaxed, flexible, informative, and super-friendly! If you have a short time in Vientiane Ere will be able to arrange some great experiences and tailor a tour to your interests.
We had a great day touring around Vientiane with Ere. I would definitely recommend taking the tour as you go to places you would otherwise miss out on like the market, museums and nice restaurants.
