The Geographical Landscape of Laos

Laos – the landlocked country has lush greenery and stunning mountainous terrain, with the Mekong River as its lifeline.

It is surrounded by Myanmar, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Much of the country is covered by forests. Due to the mountainous terrain, Laos does not have a well-developed road network. Most locals live in lowlands, along the Mekong River, and in small villages in the highlands. Traveling to Laos will take you back in time, with no skyscrapers, traffic jams, etc. You will be in awe of the stunning scenery and lush landscapes, unmatched by any other country. The incredible geography of Laos makes it a haven for thrill seekers and nature lovers. Our Laos tours offer the ideal chance to explore this varied landscape, whether you are interested in culture, adventure, and nature.

When Should You Travel to Laos?

Deciding the right time to travel to Laos will enhance your tour experience.

Tourists often prefer to travel during the dry season in the country – October to April. November to February is the coolest time, and thus, it is also the peak tourist season. The temperature is around 25 to 30 degrees Celsius. During this season, the weather is comfortable and pleasant, making it ideal for outdoor activities. It also features many popular festivals, like the Lao New Year in April, a festival with vibrant celebrations filled with traditional dance, rituals, and music.

The wet season runs from May to September. It rains often during this season with heavy downpours, especially in the mountainous regions. But, this is also the time when the landscape is most spectacular with fewer tourists. It is the best time for budget travelers if they do not mind occasional showers. If you are interested in visiting the waterfalls at their most impressive or exploring the Mekong River at its fullest, then the wet season is apt for you. Laos travel packages can be customized as per your choices along with the season, ensuring you receive the best experience.
