Nam Xay Viewpoint
Observation deck
👍👍 Very difficult to trek because of the broken way to reach. It took me like more than an hour to reach as I am not an expert in trekking. The main reason was to fly a drone from here. The views from here are breathtaking and tremendous. If you come to this trek do take plenty of water with you. Gener...

Gary's Irish Bar - The Rising Sun
Irish pub
👍👍 Really tasty food and a great atmosphere. They have a pool table and darts. Their range of drinks is as expected in an Irish bar. They had lots of British dishes on their menu. This really felt like a taste of home 🏡

Indy mini bar
Bar
👍👍 We had a lovely time in Indy mini bar. It’s perfectly located on the busiest street in Vang Vieng. It’s close to two of the loudest, busiest bars in town and compared to them it seems like a nice little oasis! It is the perfect place to come for a few drinks if you don’t quite fancy having to shout...

Pha Ngern Silver Cliff View Point
Hiking area
👍👍 A challenging trail with a fantastic panoramic view at the peak. The trail is well marked all the way to the top. We are a family of 5, ages between 42 to 7, and it took us 1:15 hours to climb 700 meters to the top. The climb is quite steep but not too slippery. Highly recommended!

KAPPHET-VEGAN and SENGKEO GUESTHOUSE
Vegan restaurant
👍👍 Absolutely incredible traditional Lao food made vegan (actually vegan, unlike most places who just use the word as a marketing ploy to get tourists). This is the only truly vegan restaurant in Vang Vieng. The owners Kapphet and her husband Sengkeo are both vegan themselves and have mastered the art...

Mad Monkey Vang Vieng
Hostel
👍👍 Rooms are new and clean, with comfy bed & privacy curtains. Staffs are friendly and helpful. The location is a bit far from city center but can walk within 5-7 minutes. Great management with room rules, I had a good sleep even staying in a 14-bed dorm room. One thing to be fixed is the bathroom drai...

Neapolitan Pizza
Pizza restaurant
👍👍 This pizza experience was excellent. The pizza was crispy, the toppings were excellent. Good sauce to cheese ratio. For the price, you won't find better pizza in Vang Vieng.

Tmark Resort VANGVIENG
Hotel
👍👍 Rooms are clean and staff are friendly. Most of all, I really liked the swimming pool and the breakfast was delicious. If I go to Vang Vieng again, I will stay here again. So nice view.
We had dinner at the hotel restaurant. The foods were so amazing. I'd like to recommend it.

Lime Lounge Cocktails Tapas
Restaurant
👍👍 Anna is a friendly owner! I just passed by the bar and felt a good vibe to try this place. I’m enjoying traveling solo but also wanted to have a chance to chat with local people. She became my company and we had good conversations:) Wish I could find this place much earlier!!

Pizza Luka
Pizza restaurant
😐 The olives for the appetizer and the homemade icetea were very tasty.
The pizza toppings were tasty, but could not live up to their potential because the thin and brittle dough did not taste of anything.
Unfortunately, we were very disappointed by the pizzas overall, especially at that high price p...

Happy Mango Thai Restaurants
Thai restaurant
👍 In the culinary desert that is Vang Vien, Happy Mango is a welcome refuge. Large menu of Thai recipes, fantastic shakes/juices, and a hip environment justify the slightly higher prices. Some Westen options at end of menu. Taste is great but not unforgettable. Service can be a bit slow during peak ti...

The food is a little pricier than other restaurants in the area but you can tell the food is good quality and healthy - so you certainly get what you pay for.
