Moe Moe from Real Treasure Travels & Tours was recommended to me by a friend who highly recommended her services. Moe Moe took great care in planning our itinerary and took into consideration the needs and interests of our travel party. Throughout the whole planning process, Moe Moe was very prompt in her communication and we were able to finalise the itinerary details very quickly. In this trip, we went to Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake and engaged Real Treasure Travels & Tours for Bagan and Inle Lake. We did not required a guide in Mandalay as we had a friend to bring us around. From Mandalay, we took a domestic flight to Bagan and started our tour with Moe Moe's team. Even though our tour only started in Bagan, She was very thoughtful and communicated to us the important things to note when leaving Mandalay, e.g. how early to leave our hotel in Mandalay so as to reach the airport by a certain timing. This was certainly helpful as we are not familiar with the road conditions and the travel time required. Thanks to her, we managed to catch our flight at a very comfortable pace! Moe Moe arranged one local guide in Bagan and one local guide in Inle Lake to bring us around Bagan and Inle Lake respectively. Both spoke good english and are extremely knowledgeable about the area and places of interest. We are very interested to know more about the daily lives of the locals and Moe Moe has very cleverly incorporated many workshops into our itinerary so that we can see and experience how their local products/ snacks are made. It was a very eye opening experience! We enjoyed those workshops, especially the cooking class at Inle Lake! Overall, we had a very comfortable and enjoyable trip in Myanmar. I would definitely recommend all to consider Real Treasure Travel & Tours as your travel agent when travelling in Myanmar. Moe Moe and her team are very nice and considerate people and has your best interests at heart when planning your itinerary. Her guides are extremely knowledgeable and friendly and it was a joy to meet them! Thank you Moe Moe, will contact you again if I have the opportunity to visit Myanmar again!

I had the pleasure of a private tour with my guide Myo and his driver Mister Tay. We really covered a lot of amazing places including numerous temples and payas, a delicious lunch stop, a visit to a lacquer workshop, and finally a view of a gorgeous sunset from high on a hill. I was very impressed with Myo’s in-depth knowledge of the many types of payas and Buddha statues. I had no idea that there were so many varieties of temples, payas, and Buddha statues. I really had a great lesson in history in Myanmar. I would most definitely recommend this tour!

Karen and our driver were great. They showed us all around the city, and a couple of places that were on the agenda that we had already seen were swapped out for alternate destinations with no difficulty (even though I am sure it messed up their planned schedule) The knowledge of the sites and her expert photo taking both added a huge amount to what was already a great trip. Highly recommended.

We booked a day trip through Bagan at Sun Travel and had a day with our wonderful guide Nai! He was not only brilliant in sharing knowledge about the Pagodas and Bagan, but also he gave us so much interesting information about life, politics and people in Myanmar. He always cared for us in an excellent way and was super friendly and very adaptive to our questions and interests. the finish with the boat trip was a unique experience that we don't want to miss. And we had a lot of fun with Nai during the day. His English is also very professional. You should also book such a tour.

Thet took me for a four hours tour of the temples of Bagan, driving around on rental e-bikes. I had such a good experience that I booked her for another 4 hours tour the next morning! Thet speaks very good English, is from Bagan and has profound knowledge that she will happily share with you, be it History, Buddhism, Architecture, Arts - there is no question she would not answer, and I had many! Thet managed to organize a very complete tour, despite the fact that the authorities had decided at short notice to close all major temples during the long week-end (I am sure the suffering local tourism will be grateful...!). She also gave me excellent advice for other activities (sunset boat trip - very nice) and restaurants (Moon - excellent!). To top it all, Thet has a very pleasant personality, which made the two tours even more enjoyable.
