You can survive but it's anything but luxury. Windshield was broken, bus was run down but we arrived in time ;)

Bus was way older than the one I bought. Bus was loaded with a lot of things that weren’t from passengers even inside the bus.

Good option to get from Vientiane to Pakse. Spacious Beds and good aircon. Pillows and blankets are provided. It looked like one of the better sleeper buses leaving the bus station. I would recommend it. Keep in mind you'll share your bed with someone else if you're traveling alone (otherwise buy 2 tickets).

Everything ok but only one stop and then in a place on the track where there was no decent toilet. Bit incomprehensible.

I booked 2 seats to make sure I’ll have a full bed for myself. Really comfortable trip 👍 Didn’t have to use the toilets so no idea how they are.

14 hour journey took 20 hours! No mechanical issues or traffic instead stopping every 1-2 hours for cigarette and toilet breaks. Solo female traveller dropped off at 3am on the side of the road in pakse and told to get out instead of the bus station. Before getting on bus was told i had to pay extra 50,000 lak to get on. No explanation to why. Pay the extra £20 to fly. Wish i did

As a solo female traveler I actually quite enjoyed this trip. I booked only one tickets so a Lao women was laying next to me but it was fine! You can sit up in your bed, get a nice blanket and snack package and I thought that the road wasn’t too bad!

It’s a fast and simple way to travel from Vientiane to Pakse, but don’t expect to sleep much. It’s shaking A LOT the whole way.

Never expected such a smooth ride from Vientiane down to Pakse. Shared to bed with my friend, was very comfortable and slept the whole way through. Bus drove at normal speed and was on time.

The bed was comfy (as a solo-traveller, I booked two seats because I didn't want to share the small bed with a stranger), the ride was very bumpy, but that's not the driver's fault. Yet, I could catch some hours of sleep. The toilet was ugly, bring your own toilet paper and sanitizer with you!! We arrived half an hour earlier in Pakse.

Things to remember: Note that some of the airlines may have restrictions on checked luggage weight or require paying extra for check-in, choosing seats or transportation of oversized luggage.

If opting for a flight, calculate the time you will spend getting to and from the airports as well as the waiting time before your flight, getting through immigration in case of an international flight and recovering your checked luggage.

In certain cases all these procedures can add no less than 5 hours to your total travel time.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Vientiane and Pakse, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
