Here are the proposed budgets for Laos CWN Mekong while they are in Chiang Rai.
Reminder, we will need US Dollars for each group to pay for Laos Visa. $36 per student and western staff.
P'Jum, if you can give each group 80,000 thb to begin the trip this should be enough. A driver or Thai staff will be responsible for bringing all receipts and remaining money to the Chiang Mai office on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning.
Tara, please make sure that a Laos staff will meet the group at the Laos border with budget to travel on the boat to Luang Prabang.
Sincerely,
