Local knowledge for Pakse

Where to stay

Most budget travelers base in the central grid between Road 13 and the Xe Don river, around Road 10 and Road 24, within walking distance of Daoheuang Market and the bus connections. The blocks near Miss Noy hold the cheapest guesthouses and the motorbike shops that rent loop bikes.

Getting around

  • Rent your Bolaven Plateau loop motorbike from Miss Noy on Road 13. They store your big bag for free while you ride the two or three day loop past Tad Fane and Tad Yuang.
  • Buy Bolaven coffee at Daoheuang Market rather than the tourist shops near the riverfront, where it costs several times more.
  • Plan only one or two nights here and book onward minivans to the 4000 Islands or Champasak at the Southern bus terminal yourself, since guesthouse-arranged tickets carry a markup.

When to go

Hostels fill and rates climb in the cool dry months from November to February, and drop to their cheapest in the wet low season from May to September, with hot, quiet March and April in between.
