Afternoon ride to Vat Phou 

Easy ride to Vat Phou through the small road only. We offer good quality bicycles to keep the journey enjoyable.

Price : 100,000₭ (5$) per bike.

Pick-up time : 2pm, return at sunset. It takes 90min return to do the 20km to Vat Phou. 90min to visit the site

≈3-4h trip.

Why is it more expensive than the average bike in Laos? These are upgraded bikes for good comfort (easy to pedal, no noise, thick saddle). We maintain the bikes ourselves each day here at the guesthouse. All spare parts must be ordered from abroad to get decent quality.

Why Vat Phou only? The condition of some trails are fine by foot but too demanding for bikes that we try to keep at a decent price. This is why we focus only on Vat Phou through the road.

Why not the morning? From 3 years experience of renting bike we've learned that afternoon time is by far the best time to go. That's why we keep our offer as simple as possible now, even if we are aware that most people still want to try to leave early morning.

Other bicycles in Champasak village : from what we see most bikes are heavily damaged or in poor condition to enjoy the 20km to Vat Phou. As an alternative we would suggest a tuk-tuk.

• 9 bikes available, smaller and bigger frames, adult size from 1,50m to 1,90m
• lock and lights included, helmet and small backpack available
• book in advance on our whatsapp 
• please bring the bike back along the riverside before 7pm for maintenance

• Don Daeng Island, 13km, an enjoyable walk around the island. Not by bike as it will be complicated to assist you if the bike needs maintenance.
• The Rice fields are now very bumpy but fine by walk, 13km loop from Souchitra. Nice view of the mountains.

We have a large map near the reception showing the different paths of Champasak, you can also check our Komoot page for gps tracking and pictures.

With time we had to learn the all process of bike maintenance and repair. If you are travelling by bike yourself maybe we can help you if needed.
