You can get EV tuk tuk (install kokkok move) applications on phone for transportation here. And for AirBnB, stay in this area for your food. If you stay far, there will be a little extra cost of transportation/food order from app.

I came back from Vientiane in January with a DTV. DM me if you would like pointers. Giving suggestions here can result in a shouting match from people who differ in opinion.
