Getting There and Away

The bus station is in the centre of town. Most departures are local songthaews, but buses travel to Vientiane and Sam Neua - two per day heading to Vientiane, and one towards Sam Neua. This is a long journey, far more convenient and comfortable on the circuit from Sam Neua to Vientiane than the other direction. The buses can actually arrive at anytime, so arrive early.
