Accommodation, in the form of hotel rooms and huts, is available for
tourists who want to stay here overnight. Tourists can hire boats for
upstream trips along the Khong River to view the Golden Triangle. The
entire trip takes only 40 minutes. Alternatively, boats can also be rented to
cruise downstream from Sop Ruak along the Mae Khong River to Chiang
Saen and Chiang Khong. The entire trip takes approximately an hour. The
duration of these boat rides can vary widely depending on the level of the
water during that season, flow of the river and on the water currents.
