Deadliest Roads - Laos

Landlocked and shrouded in historical mystery, Laos is home to dozens of forgotten tribes who reside in its vast rolling mountains and impenetrable jungles. One of the last standing communist countries, we travel along the Ho Chi Minh trail that was used to transport weapons in the Vietnam War. The countryside is still littered with bombs dropped by the Americans and travelling requires vigilant drivers.
We adventure in trucks, on the back of elephants, by car engine-powered speedboat and often on foot. The stakes are high for these courageous drivers, and the pressure is on for a safe passage in ferocious conditions.
