save to travel to VV

hi meneki,

thanks for your reply and sorry for didnt post my questions in details.

1. Train ticket to Nong Khai

2. My budget is about US10 per night in Vientien, VV and Lo.Proubang.

Thanks.

There are some little guesthouses near the riverside in Vientiane, $8-$10 range. You don%26#39;t need to book ahead, same ion Vang Vieng. Some great places with private bath even for $6-$8. Luang Prabgnag is overpriced for what you get, expect to pay $10-$15 for a littel room there. The cheapie places don%26#39;t have webistes so it%26#39;s difficult to book in advance, but there are a million little places so just belly up and you will find something.

I am sorry I cannot help wiht the trains- I always fly into Laos. Check out this website to get transport information.
