The Rough Guide to Laos is the perfect companion for travelling around this fascinating southeast Asian country, whether you want to follow the well-trodden route along the Mekong, or blaze your own trail. The extensive coverage of Laos stretches from the remote mountainous north to the sleepy south, with comprehensive information on border crossings, road and river travel, and detailed maps to make your journey easier. Extensive accommodation and eating listings cover every budget, and the authoritative history section provides essential background knowledge on Laos's oft-turbulant history. Learn more about the country's fascinating hilltribes or plan your visit to coincide with one of Laos's vibrant festivals, both illustrated with evocative photography in the two full-colour sections.
