Mysterious Yangon Bagan
Don' t go in the surrounding gras with flipflops because many snakes are there. Be kind of realizing where you are setting feed in the shoe forbidden areas.. Many temple surroundinds are never cleaned. Especially the big temples are full of bird excrements. Be sure to go never in dark corridors where dump is everywhere. Never drive lanes with your scooter finishing in nowhere. There in the tremendous big area living also wild animals like sometimes leopards (possibly).
Splendid Myanmar
I can't say thanks enough to Ms Lucy of Threeland Travel. She did a great job to help us arrange an awesome trip ever for our group of 15 people. Everything was outstanding and exceed our expectation. I contacted with Lucy just only 2 weeks before trip, number of people and plans changed overtime but Lucy was so smart and prompt that sent us very good itinerary.Hotels was very clean with friendly and helpful staff, meals were arranged very well at good local restaurants. Especially, our guides in all cities were very good at English, knowledgeable in Buddhism, answered all our questions in details. Drivers were so funny too and helped us to have a safe journey. Luckily, all our flights were direct and we didn't have to wait too long at airport. Once again, thanks Lucy for all your help and I will keep in touch for next Southeast Asia trips.
Insight Myanmar
If you're in Bagan, you already know that this place is very special! The number of gorgeous temples is mind-boggling and the fact that you can just wander among them and be by yourself much of the time is just fantastic! We spent 10 days here and plan on returning and spending at least a week. We enjoyed our time in Bagan so much! It really lived up to and exceeded our expectations!
Best Of Myanmar
We visited several teak wood monasteries during our 2 week stay in Myanmar and each one was both spectacular and unique in its own way. But I think this one was my favorite with the golden paint seeming to glow in the sunlight. I got some fantastic photos at this monastery and would suggest that this NOT be missed during your stay in the area! I would say an hour to explore is enough time.
Myanmar Real Holiday
It was areally good tour andservice but sometimes it will be pleasant to have more free time to visit places
Best Of Myanmar
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
Best Of Myanmar
This is my first time, visiting a pagoda that has an elevator inside. The pagoda has a lots of people on the day i visited but it was not so noisy at all. Everyone paid attention to their tour guides or praying. We also had an interesting experience by standing at our birthday corner and prayed. We both felt so peaceful when we were here!
Splendid Myanmar
From my point of view Bagan is one of the best heritage spots from all over the world regardless the old built heritage of the mankind. The Legacy from the 12th century founded here is really unique and very precious. It is a magical place to visit!
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.

In case you want to have an off-the-beaten-track experience, a long trek in the Kachin state in the far North, with snowy mountains, Crystal Rivers with boutique local houses and relic would be ideal.
Nowadays, Myanmar tours are becoming popular with its distinctive features and the government under State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi is striving to improve its infrastructure and tourist safety in every region and providing stable jobs to the locals, whom provides the strongest support and care towards visitors, with their hospitality and kindness.
The best Myanmar tour packages normally include culture expeditions and beach relaxation. With 135 different ethnic groups, Myanmar is also known as one of the world's most diverse countries which has a rich history and panoply of cultural and religious traditions.
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.

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.

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.
