Decent but tour guide not understanding of personal space and hard to understand their English but he was adaptive
Our driver, ko ie rin: u:, was very friendly and helpful. It was my first time in Amarapura, Mingun, Sagaing, Aba and Innwa, and it was a good memory. We had lunch at a local restaurant along the river, and it was fun because it felt like we were locals.

Tour is meant for 3 people in a private car but I went solo. Great driver spoke enough English to get by and visited the main and important sites with amazing views, expect a lot of walking barefoot to respect the pagodas and temples you walk in so it can be extremely hot depending on the time of year. Also expect to have all people of different ages to try to get you to buy things and follow you around.

The places visited were very beautiful. Also the guide very kind and helpful. Its a nice way to visit the area without taking too long planning the details and trying to get taxi or tuktuk. Just a recommendation. Unfortunately for me it was very expensive because i was solo and the trip is for a group up to 3 people. But this time in Myanmar the banks and ATM´s doesn't work from fridays do monday morning so it was the only chance i had to visit the city, booking online, because i didn't enough money. Should think a fair price for solo travelers, there are so many in this country. But in general, all perfect thanks to my driver/friend/guide

I had a great time with my driver. I assumed for the price I was getting a guide to, which I did not. My driver spoke a tiny bit of English and was kind enough to explain what he could and walk around with me. I wish description made it more clear that there was no guide. Overall beautiful locations and history.
