Laos is open to leisure tourists and arrivals are growing in 2026. Travel right now is mainly affected by flooding/landslides, road hazards, petty crime and scam risks, and localized security warnings near certain border zones. There is no evidence here of a nationwide conflict or collapse of tourism, but some destinations require extra caution.
