How Explera supports the Laos trade.
Explera builds Japan programs for Laos around direct flight schedules and short, repeat breaks of four to seven nights, with series and ad-hoc FIT on the same net-rate contracts. Series departures and ad-hoc FIT sit on the same confidential contracts, so you never re-negotiate for volume.
Quoting for Laos is built for your margins: clear per-person grids, child and extra-bed policies up front, and pricing in your working currency. One line-itemised statement per file drops cleanly into your mid- or back-office system without manual rekeying.
Lao clients get Mandarin, Japanese and Korean-language guiding on request and our own GPS-tracked fleet across Japan. Everything is operated in-house — guides, vehicles and coordinators — so one accountable team owns the experience.

Standard quotations come back inside a day for Laos, with detailed MICE proposals following in a few business days.
Do you provide language support for Laos?
English-language account management is standard, and Mandarin, Japanese and Korean guides are assigned to match your clients.
Which parts of Japan do Lao clients book most?
Lao clients are matched to the parts of Japan that suit their dates and pace, with seasonality driving the routing.
How do agencies in Laos settle invoices with Explera?

Is Explera a licensed, accredited operator?
