I notice this wildlife sanctuary is located in the Nong Khai region. How far is this from Nong Khai and how easy and long would it take to get there by bus?

Thanks again.

I'm coming from Vientiane to Nong Khai and am debating whether to stop off for a few days to visit the town. Being the opposite side of the mekong from Vientiane would it be too similar an experience or is there much to do and see. I've seen images of the buddhist sculpture park which looks lovely.
Is it a beautiful town and how far and easy is it to get out into a surrounding village to explore. Basically is it worth stopping off here?

Hi,

I am traveling once again to Loei this year and always like to stay at guest houses rather than hotels. Years back I remember staying at Mr Dums guest house and wonder if it is still in existence. If not can anyone recomend a guest house to stay at.

What is the best way for a family to get from Khon Kaen to Udon Thani Airport. I'd like the least amount of hassle and the most direct way. I see that KK doesn't have taxis, but that would probably be the best way to go if they did. Also some idea of how much it might cost. Thanks very much.

What airline(s) fly from BKK to Khon Kaen? What is the best way for a traveller who is arriving on an international flight to BKK transfer to a flight to Khon Kaen?

Howdy...

I'm thinking of a Nov. Thailand trip in which I'd fly from BKK to Chiang Mai..then to Issan (maybe Udon Thani)...then to Phuket...

Can anyone suggest the best way to get from Chiang Mai to Udon Thani..or have a suggestion for a different trip itinerary that would make more sense?

Here's the tentative:
Nov. 9-14th (Bangkok)
Nov. 15-17th (Chiang Mai)
Nov. 18-20) (Udon Thani/Issan)..have just never been to Issan
Nov. 21-24 (Phuket)...I guess I'd have to fly to BKK first?
Nov. 25 -26..Bangkok and fly back to USA

I guess Im not sure which airlines fly where or if it's worth it to change the order of visiting here, etc..

Opinions?

Thanks...
