DESTINATION OF VAST RICHES
Given the political and social turmoil that is sadly affecting Myanmar, we are not promoting tours to this beautiful but troubled country for the time being.
However, we have decided not to remove information on Myanmar from our website in the hope that it might inspire you to consider a visit at some time in the future when it is safe again to do so.
Inspire your imagination – in a land where gold Buddhas compete with a Golden Rock. Where ancient temples and pagodas contrast with colonial architecture. Where the cuisine and culture has many different nationalities at its roots.
The Myanmar holidays are different. Shaped by countless invaders in the past, it now shares its riches with comparatively few overseas visitors.
You could be rising, for example, with the sun, into the cool clear air as a hot air balloon lifts you over the Temples of Bagan. You could visit the Shwedagon pagoda at Yangon. Or find yourself amongst stilted houses, markets and traditional craft workshops on the banks of Inle Lake.
You might walk past rows of gilded Buddhas. Or visit a golden rock at Bago that is balanced high on its cliff top perch. Or you may decide to cruise the Irrawaddy river, past bamboo villages and monasteries that soar above the forest canopy and ruined temples.
Ask our knowledgeable specialists about a tailor-made holiday to Myanmar; inspire your imagination.
