8-Night Myanmar Private Tour with Flights from Yangon

Have you ever thought about going to Myanmar? I have, and after seeing many enticing pictures, and videos taken by many adventurous souls. I decided to investigate. In doing so I came across a company called Good Life Myanmar, and I inquired! In doing so I got a very prompt response from Mr. Kaung Myat Oo, who thoroughly answered all my questions regarding flights, obtaining a visa, accommodations, payments,tour inclusions and exclusions, and of course cancellation policy, and safety. Mr. Kaung made me feel very confident that it was going to be an unforgettable trip, not to be missed. I quickly made my reservation and payment, and what a trip it was!!! This past summer I was fortunate enough to experience nine uniquely incredible countries,and yet the country that I knew the least about, except what I heard in the news turned out to be the trip of a lifetime. From the minute I landed to the moment I left every moment was adventure filled. Yes, and in case you are wondering if Myanmar is safe, I will tell you this, there was never a moment that I felt afraid or unsafe. The people of Myanmar were very friendly and treated me with kindness wherever I went. All the guides and drivers that were with me throughout my adventure were next level. If it was their mission to make each and every moment of my trip extraordinary, then they hit the ball out of the park, and succeeded admirably. I could tell you about all the amazing highlights of my eight day trip including my favorite moments but it would be like a long highlight real, and it would deprive you of experiencing things in Myanmar the way I did for the fist time, and believe me it was absolutely amazing!!! I have included a number of photographs to give you an idea of what I experienced on my own incredible journey. Enjoy! with Kind Regards, Rick M.

We took 9 nights of excursions with hotel, 4 flights , guides and drivers. Yangon,Bagan,Mandalay and Inle Lake. 100% on everything, good guides and punctual. The choice of hotel categories Superior was excellent, We highly recommend it

We are a group of 6 seniors who just returned from Myanmar. Our tour was booked through Good Life Myanmar Travels and Tours. Thanks to Kaung Myat Oo, our trip was very well organized and we got to see all the highlights we wanted to see. The hotels were great despite the summer brownouts. Our best guides were our Bagan guide and our Inle guide – thank you. Myanmar local food is quite delicious and everyone should sample them

This 8-night tour is a bit pricy even according to the Australian standard. However, this private tour is worth every penny if you do want to enjoy your the beautiful Myanmar without any planning.The trip covers 4 main tourist attractions including Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay, and Inle Lake. In every cities, I had a private tour guide along with a driver to take me around. All tour guides are not just fluent in English, but also knowledgeable and friendly. They took me to different tourist attractions and let me fully appreciate the historical sites with detailed explanations.The accommodation is definitely top-notch, including luxurious brand such as Shangrila and a variety of boutique hotels (5-star equivalent according to the Australian Standard). The view is quite nice and the food including both western and Myanmar style is gourmet.Traffic in Myanmar is a big issue. This tour covers all flights between major cities in Myanmar, which save heaps of time in transfer. I could enjoy the tour the minute I landed and went to the hotel if I felt a bit tired.In summary, if you have enough budget and would like to fully enjoy the enchanting Myanmar, then this 8-night tour is a must for sure.

We had amazing two weeks in Myanmar, no problems at all. All four tour guides are very friendly, competent and spoke good English. All hotels was really nice and clean. Highlight was the Lightning festival in Inle lake, we was very lucky to be there right on time. Service included more fees and taxes that we could expect. After 8-days tour the Good Life Myanmar travel company organized for us airplane tickets and resort in Ngapali beach, what was also wonderful.

This trip of the highlights of Myanmar taught us a lot about the culture, the people, their beliefe and their food. It was an amazing trip in a country that I was always interested in visiting.

All went smoothly with highest quality of service and accommodations. People welcoming and beloved.All went out of way to provide the best possible service, food, water,.,. and comfort. I felt at home in all. Myanmar has a long way to go regarding animal welfare The street dogs and cats are overpopulated and starving and dying.If anyone wants to join me in efforts to convince the government to initiate sterilization programs I would be appreciative. My appreciation for a wonderful time and please relay my gratitude to all the personnel both in the hotels and the tour guides. Good Life accommodated all needs and I recommend this company with the highest regard. Sharon Byer .

<p>This 9 day tour covered a lot of ground. Basically, when we arrived in Yangon in the morning, we were picked up by tour guide at airport and started the tour jet lag and all we asked for 1-2 hour break in the afternoon to rest, and we restarted the tour in late afternoon to Shwedagon Pagoda which is a must see when in Yangon. The next morning, we woke early morning for flight to Bagan and spend 2 nights there Bagan is touristy with Pagodas everywhere the Bagan tour guide took us all over for a fairly full 2 days of touring with a few hours of down time Bagan is a must see. Then, it is off on another early morning flight to Mandalay with another 2 full days of touring with another tour guide Mandalay tour is really 4 separate towns Sagaing, Mingun, Mandalay, and Amarpura a lot to see in short amount of time very enjoyable. Then it is a flight to Inlay Lake for 2 days with another tour guide one day is basically driving to Pindaya Caves and the next day is a whole day touring Inlay Lake by boat the Inlay Lake day was my favorite part of the tour. Then it was flight back to Yangon for half day tour Yangon is basically a busy city and the least enjoyable part of tour. We decided to stay an extra night in Yangon to catch up and unwind before being picked up for a flight home the following morning. All in all, it was a very enjoyable tour without any major problems. <br/> Conclusions, tips, and what I learned:<br/> -This tour is recommended for anyone who wants to see a lot of Myanmar 4 major destinations: Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay, and Inle Lake in a short amount of time 9 days it is NOT recommended for those who are looking to have a slow relaxing time. <br/> -One of the things that makes a huge difference is the quality of tour guide there were 4 different tour guides One at each destination, and all were independent freelance guides some were better in English than others some were more enthusiastic than others so this is just luck of the draw.<br/> -The basic hotels were adequate and very nice with great staff and service. Out of the 4 hotels, the worst was in Yangon Grand United Chinatown even though the hotel location was pretty good, it was the most run down and least comfortable of the 4. <br/> -Myanmar is a beautiful country with strong Buddhist traditions. It is still 3rd worldish but rapidly changing, so see it before it changes too much.</p>
