The Burmese have preserved traditional values, and are deeply devout in their religion, with a close-knit family system and respect for elders still powerfully observed. Myanmar people are fun-loving and festivals form the centre of Myanmar social life, with each month having its own festive occasion. Thus, before scheduling your tours to Myanmar, do not miss to check the Myanmar festival time in that month.
Check weather before you go:
Before planning for a Myanmar tour, do not forget to check timing and weather. Myanmar is located in the monsoon region of Asia with three seasons in a year: the cool, relatively dry northeast monsoon (late October to mid-February), the hot, dry inter-monsoonal season (mid-February to mid-May), and the rainy southwest monsoon (mid-May to late October).
Fun Facts for your best Myanmar holiday:
There are no family or surnames in Burma
The giving of a name depends on the day of the week a child was born. The name must include one or more of the birth day’s consonants. There is one group for each day of the week (which incidentally has 8 days, Wednesday being divided into two days for astrological purposes).
Around Pagodas there are shrines for each of the 8 days and it is auspicious to worship at ones’ relevant shrine.
The Burmese lunar calendar has exactly 28 days in each month
Festivals take place according to the position of the moon – usually the full moon day. Better you can arrange your Myanmar tour in this time.
Pagodas (stupas) or Temples were conceived as visual monuments to Buddha. Generally, they don’t have an interior. They are cosmic symbols, their presence benefits mankind and their construction will benefit a donor’s rebirth (merits) … to eventual enlightenment. This is why Burma’s landscape is littered by millions of them
Burmese people put great faith in nats (spirits)
Every house (note every) has a family shrine to the Lord Buddha and household nats.
If you have two weeks or so, the very first Myanmar tour package should be for "the big four" of the country, situated nearby one another in the center of Myanmar: Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay, and Inle Lake. Each one of these, though, is worth a private visit of several days. Distinctive design, patterns, details, and ornaments at any temple or relics, the surrounding scenery, etc. will astonish you and leave an unforgettable impression of the talent and rich spiritual-religious life of the locals.

Mysterious Yangon Bagan
This is a must see in Yangon, if you at night you'll be surprised the number of worshippers. Ladies you will need to wear an ankle long skirt and cover up your shoulders. Just beautiful!!
Mysterious Yangon Bagan
Really good value and very enjoyable. Accommodated our dietary requests at short notice. Very impressed overall
Mysterious Yangon Bagan
I have been multiple times; day and night. I prefer evening when the sun is setting and night time since it is more iconic. The guide will tell you some interesting part of the temple. About the Buddha's relics, the gem stone at the top of the Pagoda and the history. You can negotiate a good deal Shorts are not allowed. If in shorts you will be given a traditional wear. Also footwear is not allowed, you will have to leave shoes outside
Myanmar Real Holiday
My Agent was Lucy who set up a fabulous fun filled and informative 12 days trip. The guides were superb and the hotels were top notch. I insisted on only 4 or 5 star. I would not recommend Mandalay Lodge in Mandalay due to its proximity to a stadium where a rock concert was planned for day after I left. It was enough to hear rehearsals and restaurant and massage prices were too high. Don’t miss balloon trip in Bagan.Needed the rest after the countless pagoda and temple visits. Agency is highly recommended and would use them again.
Mysterious Yangon Bagan
An unimaginable world of exploration and enchantment. These temples are inspiring and beautiful while maintains an air of mystery and spirituality. It was so wonderful to see these up close and to explore the landscape with so many temples dotted around.
Myanmar at a glance
Excellent service from Lucy who worked with us to set up the tour, checked on us during the trip and followed up afterwards to see if we were happy. Our guide for trekking and on the lake, Mr Bun Von was superb. We especially enjoyed the evening walk around the village where he helped us to explore the real life of the villagers. Pounding rice, watching the men make baskets, helping the ladies to plant ginger, dancing with the young girls and just seeing how things worked in the village was an experience I’m sure that our daughter or us will never forget. Ms Nara , the guide in Yangon and Bago was excellent at teaching us about the Buddhist culture and pointing out the small things that otherwise we would have missed. The drivers were safe and the trekking cook did an excellent job as well.
Overall Majestic Myanmar
May from Threeland travel supported our travel needs in Myanmar. He organized the flight tickets, a bus and a bout ticket. Everything very professional and supportive. Good recommendations of services. I think it worth the little extra money as compared to self managed bookings.
Best Of Myanmar
Visiting the temples of bagan was such an amazing experience. We hired a guide for our first day which was very helpful since there isn't much info on the temple grounds. If you compare it to for example the temples of angkor, this is a very different experience and well worth going to Myanmar for!
Festival
For those who are deeply interested in cultural and spiritual events, choosing tours and taking part in festivals will be one of the best ways to enjoy holiday.
You may worry about an ongoing, 70-year-long ethnic civil war, landmines, gangs, and the opium trade. However, the situation is not as serious as you think.

The best time to visit Myanmar is from November to February as the cool breeze blows most of the country. On the other hand, March to May is hotter, especially in the plains near Bagan and Mandalay.
The temperatures also change by altitude so the hill stations, lakes and Himalayan foothills are far cooler than the southern lowland and coastal regions.
Others are in the rainy season, especially, sometimes at the peak of this season, some regions become inaccessible and some beaches have to suffer the high winds and heavy rainfall that batter the coast annually.
In Myanmar, the culinary style of the coastal region differs from inland areas. The coastal region, including Yangon, fish sauce and ngapi (fermented seafood) are more favored. For inland provinces, they often use more meat and sometimes fish and shrimp. Rice is the main course of their meals.
A traditional Myanmar meal includes a bowl of soup, rice, several meat curries, and ngapi yay with tozaya (vegetables for dipping).
Myanmar cuisine concepts are inspired by neighboring countries such as China, India and Thailand. The identity of Myanmar food is identified by their own cooking and processing methods. Moreover, the myriad local ethnic minorities also have their distinct culinary, which are worth experiencing.
Despite social issues, Myanmar is a worth-visit country for travelers with abundant exciting natural sites as well as unspoiled cultures of indigenous residents.
Myanmar’s landscapes are truly breathtaking from dreamy beaches, the lush lowland, immense Inle Lake, extensive Irrawaddy River to mystic jungles, majestic mountains and the rugged highlands.
History also creates a variety of idiosyncratic sites that are inscribed as UNESCO Heritages such as Bagan, Pyu Ancient Cities. Moreover, Myanmar is obviously the homeland to thousands of unrepeatable temples and pagodas. Cultural discovery trips are also favored by a lot of visitors.

When mentioning Myanmar cuisine, it is a big mistake when we skip Tea leaf salad or Lephet - the most famous dish of Burmese. The dish is versatile to be eaten as a snack, an appetizer or, coupled with a plate of rice or even a stimulant to prevent sleep.
Locals use a repertoire of ingredients, transform and process them in diverse ways, creating unique dishes not found in any other cuisine. Besides Lephet, to have a perfect Myanmar tour, visitors should seek out Shan-style rice - rice cooked with turmeric, Tea shops, Burmese curry, Nangyi thoke, Mohinga, etc.
Thank you for choosing Threeland Travel to be your local friend in Myanmar.
