Hi,
I shall be in Laos in July this year. I gather that during the wet season the Four Thousand Islands are partially flooded with all the influx of water. Does this put it off limits for a visit in the wet season? Or, conversely is it more impressive and should definitely be on my itinerary?
Any help much appreciated.
Cheers, Andy

Hi Andy,

It's not off limits at all. The waterfalls are running at full steam, so they're about as spectacular as they get. Sure it's a bit more muddy, and you'll want to check the roof doesn't leak, but otherwise I certainly wouldn't rule it out.
