Houayxay has a domestic airport (HOE) with regular flights to Vientiane and Luang Prabang (depending on the season). Boats (speed and slow boats, freighters, luxury cruisers for tourists and others) run down the Mekong to Pakbeng, Luang Prabang and other destinations.

Fort Carnot, an ancient French fort in ruins, sits on a hill overlooking the town and the Mekong River.
