Rent cheap motorbike in Thakhek
I rented my motorbike an Wang Wang, it is a shop in the center on Thakhek. I paid 60.000 kip a day (6 euro or $7.5). That was the cheapest I could find. We rode the motorbike loop from Thakhek in three days on the bikes without any problems. We choose the semi automatic bikes because the were cheaper than automatic bikes and easy to ride.

Hi,
where did you left your buggage??
Thanks
Thank you for your question Leticia, I left my luggage at the motorbike rental and only took my small backpack on the trip.
Often they also have a place in the hostel where you can book your nights around the Thakhek trip.
Enjoy!
