Green Tree Guesthouse : May 2012

Next stop Luang Prabang?

Most visitors to Chiang Khong are en-route to Luang Prabang in Laos. Here's a selection of images from a reverse journey by slow-boat (LPG-Chiang Khong) that we made last week, just to give you a feel for this 2-day journey down the Mekong.
BTW - we can also provide slow-boat tickets.

Green Tree is a small and friendly locally run guest house, restaurant, and bar in Chiang Khong. We have a range of single, twin, double, and family rooms and A-frame bamboo chalets to let. Our rooms are clean and set in quiet green surroundings, with shared facilities; prices range from 150-300 Bath per room night.

In-front of the guest house is our restaurant and bar area; we have a bamboo built section with a floor/low seating area and a new terraced seated dining area, where we serve up great local Thai food as well as Italian classics and fusion dishes and drinks all day long.

We open for breakfast at 7.15am daily (closed for food on Sundays), and also offer takeaway baguettes and packed lunches for the boat journey to Laos (we also sell Laos boat tickets).

In the bar we serve up everything from fruit shakes and fresh coffee to cocktails and wines by the carafe.
