Catch an evening flight, arriving in Bangkok the next day. Your next flight takes you on to Yangon, where you’ll be met and transferred to your hotel. You’ll be staying at the historic Strand Hotel, set in a restored colonial building near the Shwedagon Pagoda.
A day of unrivalled sightseeing now presents itself. From the grave solemnity of the Reclining Buddha in the Chauk Htat Gyi Pagoda, you’ll find a complete contrast in the colourful bustle and noise of places like Strand Road, Yangon Harbour, Chinatown and the Indian Quarter. After discovering downtown’s colonial buildings your morning ends at the 2000-year-old Sule Pagoda. In the afternoon you’ll visit Bogyoke Market, specialising in handicrafts, before venturing to Kandawgyi Lake and the golden Shwedagon Pagoda for sunset.
Stay: Two nights in a deluxe suite at the Strand Hotel
