Build your own Myanmar trip
Good things happen when we travel
Myanmar experiences tailored to you
Myanmar (previously known as Burma) is like no other destination. It’s home to untouched corners and unique cultures, shaped by years of relative isolation. With sweeping landscapes, a unique culture and ancient Buddhist temples, Myanmar isn’t short on beauty or spirtuality. After so long shrouded in mystery, this incredible country is finally ready to be discovered. Our travel specialists will take the hassle away, by tailor-making a holiday that suits you perfectly.
Bite-sized trips, itineraries or tailor made trips
We have created a selection of bite-sized trips, showcasing the best Myanmar has to offer. These trips are typically 2-5 days in length and include transport, accommodation and experiences to bring you closer to the real Myanmar. To create your holiday you can either choose one of our ready-made itineraries, crafted by our destination experts, or select a few of our bite-sized trips and we will piece them together for you.
Our travel specialists are destination experts and can advise you on the best routes and places to stay, adapting the trip to suit you. Get in touch with our team to start planning your dream Myanmar holiday.

Rickshaw brings you closer
There are lots of special experiences to be had in Myanmar, but one of our favourites is exploring Inle Lake. Home to Intha villages and filled with stilted bamboo houses, the fishermen still practice the traditional, and impressive, leg-rowing here. Enjoy a lunch of Shan noodles at a local family’s home to really get an insight into the culture here.
