Overland access is possible from Thailand through borders like Mukdahan-Savannakhet or Chiang Khong-Huay Xai, and also from Vietnam.

Visa and Timing: Many visitors can obtain a visa on arrival for up to 30 days; ensure your passport is valid for at least six months post-entry. The best time to visit is during the dry season, from November to February, when the weather is pleasant.
