Questions & Answers

Everything you need
to know

What is the difference between the tuk tuk and minivan tours?

The tuk tuk tour ($50) visits Wat Phou and returns to Pakse via Champasak. The minivan adds Champasak Old Town for $90, or continues to Khone Phapheng Falls and the 4000 Islands for $160. All prices are for the whole vehicle, not per person.

What is included in the price?

The private vehicle and driver, fuel, tolls and parking. Meals, site entrance fees and personal expenses are not included. On the $160 tour the boat out to the islands is arranged and paid locally.

Do I get to see Champasak Old Town?

Yes, on the $90 minivan tour, which includes the Champasak Old Town stop. The tuk tuk tour visits Wat Phou and returns via Champasak but does not stop in the old town. If you'd like the old town on the Mekong as well, choose the minivan.

Can this tour take me to the 4000 Islands?

Yes. The $160 minivan tour visits Wat Phou and Khone Phapheng Falls, then drops you at the boat landing for Don Det or Don Khone instead of returning to Pakse. It's a good way to see the temple on your way south.

Is a guide included?

No, the tour is a private driver, so you visit Wat Phou at your own pace. Wat Phou has good on-site information. If you'd prefer a licensed guide at the temple, we can arrange one on request.

What is the cancellation policy?

A small deposit secures the booking. It's refundable up to 30 days before departure, less a $15 administration fee. Within 30 days of departure the deposit is non-refundable.
