Myanmar Indigenous Tours
Description
We conduct our tours in partnership with the local indigenous communities, and help sustain their traditional cultures and lifestyles. As opposed to the usual sight-seeing tours, each tour focuses on only one specific ethnicity and provides a more in-depth introduction, as well as personal interactions with community members and their daily lives. Our amenities are also higher-quality and more extensive than offered by other tours, and our licensed tour guides, averaging 20+ years experience, more qualified.

Gracious Hosts, Treated like Family
Tremendous amenities – a new luxury bus, complimentary soft drinks and sarongs we all wore which were ours to take home. Not to mention a great lunch, cooked in a neighborhood Chinese restaurant. A step above, and well worth the price!
