The 3 seasons of Laos
🍃 November to February (Dry season 19°C - 32°C) : this is the high season, almost no rain and relatively cool weather. All Laos becomes busy with tourism and we are usually almost fully booked for 4 months. Greenery remains until late December. We offer warmer blanket for colder nights in January.
🌞 March to May (Summer 24°C - 36°C) : It's better to visit monuments early morning (from 8am) or afternoon (from 2:30pm) as the weather gets hot. The riverside is the best place to be at mid-day as you often get a cool breeze from the Mekong. April is a month of festivities and it may get louder than usual. Tourism usually suddenly stops from end of March as high heat.
🌧️ June to October (Green season 24°C - 32°C) : the most beautiful season as the vegetation becomes green. It rains a lot in September, apart from that it can be some rain each day or long periods of blue sky. If you can be flexible with your activities then this is the best season as lower prices, low tourism and beautiful surroundings.
✅ The best month is usually October as low tourism and low rain, everything is green.
❌ Worst months are September (heavy rain) and April (hot and loud).
*These are general guidelines as weather can be unpredictable.
