We booked a trip through the Chiang Saen River Hotel
which included transportation to the border at Chiang
Khong and transportation down the Mekong to Luang
Prabang. We have provided these limited details for
those who prefer to make the journey to the border by
bike.
Road/Ride - Hwy 1290 and 1129. The car ride from
Chiang Sean started at 6:00 a.m. with a thick fog and
limited visibility. The notes for this ride are from the
view of the mini-van window.
The road is entirely sealed with no shoulder. Traffic is
light.
Hills - The road is hilly and windy, with some steep
climbs and descents. There is no shoulder, but traffic
is light.
