Morning everyone. I hope to take my Thai Registered Bike to Lao next Week.I want to take a look at Luang Prabang. On my previous two visits to Lao by Bike I crossed into Lao on the Ferry at Nakon Phanom as on both occasions I was heading South (Sii Pan Don) if you have never been GO!!
As I live in Udon the Bridge at Nong Kai would be the perfect entry point. I read that someone with a Thai Bike crossed there recently without any problems. I wonder if anyone has some reliable intelligence as to the Likelihood of my being allowed to take my Bike over the Bridge at Nong Kai.
Unless I hear that I have an even chance of crossing at Nong Kai would crossing at Nakon Phanom be my best alternative. I suppose that never knowing if you will be admitted is all part of the adventure of a trip to Lao, although frankly riding up and down Thailand looking for a way into Lao is beginning to become something of a Bore!!
