LAOS
Information
& Maps
The National Tourism Authority of Laos (NATL) operates offices
in a few places, including Vientiane, but staff are generally
untrained and speak little English. Two privately owned companies,
Sodetour and Diethelm, can provide reliable information. Word-of-mouth
information from other travellers is often the best source, as
conditions in Laos change with astonishing rapidity.
Nelles 1:1,500,000 map of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia or its Southeast
Asia "Road Atlas" of the same scale are adequate for
orientation but can be misleading.
