Myanmar
Myanmar is one of those places that still feels genuinely untouched. It's home to golden pagodas by the thousand, one of the great ancient temple plains on earth at Bagan, and a country only now steadily reopening after decades largely closed off from the rest of the world. If you're after polished resorts and well-worn tourist trails, this probably isn't for you. But if you want proper adventure, warm locals, and experiences most travellers never get to see, then Myanmar is for you.
Our Myanmar tours focus on the highlights that actually matter: the golden stupas of Yangon, the impossible balancing act of the Golden Rock, the ancient temple plain of Bagan, and a few quieter corners most people miss.
We start in Yangon, where the golden spire of Shwedagon Pagoda dominates the skyline and the streets of the old colonial quarter tell the story of a country shaped by isolation and resilience. It's a proper introduction to modern Myanmar — busy, devout, and full of character.
From there the real adventure begins. We visit Kyaiktiyo, where a giant golden boulder balances impossibly on the edge of a cliff, said to be held in place by a single strand of Buddha's hair. We pass through the strangely empty highways of Naypyidaw, Myanmar's purpose-built capital, join a local tea leaf salad festival along the way, and push on to Mandalay before reaching Bagan, where more than 2,000 ancient temples rise out of the plain — one of the great sights in Southeast Asia. We finish at the Pindaya Caves, a network of limestone caverns packed with thousands of Buddha images tucked into the rock.
From the golden rock of Kyaiktiyo to the temple plains of Bagan, the empty highways of Naypyidaw to the pagodas of Yangon — this is travel that stays with you forever.
