With the experiences of visiting of Yangon city which is the former capital of Myanmar. Compared with other Asian cities of similar size it gives the impression of being green and full of trees, above which shimmering pagodas seem to float. The centre of Yangon still retains many impressive old buildings from the British colonial period. Highlights of this tour is a Traditional Burmese puppetry, Htwe Oo Myanmar marionette troupe with the aim of restoring interest in the culturally significant art form.

We enjoyed our Myanmar trip tremendously with the arrangements made by The Mighty Myanmar. Special thanks to our three guides (Mr Sai in Inle Lake, Mr Zin Min in Mandalay and Mr Aung in Bagan) who had wonderful knowledge of the history and culture in Myanmar. They were very friendly and helpful, ensuring that our requests were met and making sure that we felt comfortable in this beautiful country. Never once during our trip did we feel lost as our guides and drivers ensured that our transportation from one city to the next was always seamless. We would definitely recommend The Mighty Myanmar and the services of our guides!

After the long time no travelling because of the pandemic, I was here for the second time ❤️ It still choose this tour cause the last time I was so impressed by everything. Vietnam’s nature is always amazed me, that’s why I choose VN to be my second home. I love spending time on the sampan boat visting Market’s Area, so crowded. The CuChi tunnel visit was interesting. The tour guide told us a lot about the history and the underground people here. Moveover, there is no word can describe how delicious Vietnamese food is... the food was made by local people so it different from other place but just so wonderful. I really highly recommend this trip to everyone! I even want to come back the third time ????

We booked this tour 2 weeks before the tour date and we were really looking forward to it. What a disappointment! We attempted to get it touch with our guide/the tour operator many times using the information available on our tickets and on trip advisor without success. We just wanted to reconfirm our tour, get in touch with our guide and ask a few questions in order to be prepared. We wrote several emails and tried to call many times but no one ever answered us. In good faith, we still showed up at the meeting point on the due date... we waited... and waited... no one ever showed up. The phone number isn’t being answered to and no one answers the email, we felt cheated. We are fortunate enough to be staying in a hotel with an amazing staff who are currently trying to help us getting our money back... to be continued...

The Golden Rock is one of the most famous places to visit in Myanmar, we offer an affordable day-tour from Yangon to Golden Rock! The day return trip to the Golden Rock near Kyaikhtiyo is one of the most revered pilgrimage sites for Myanmar Buddhists. The gold-leaf-covered boulder is said to maintain its balance thanks to a single hair of the Buddha being enshrined inside the pagoda. From the pagoda, you can observe the pilgrims devout in prayers or applying gold leaf to the boulder, while enjoying a spectacular view of the valley below.

Mr. Htike was a highly knowledgeable guide providing a well planned tour of Yangon's historical area. Starting with excellent coverage of The Secretariat, we then proceeded into the city, covering a local market, amazing historical buildings, the river ferry terminal, parks, a famous pagoda, churches, city hall and finishing at an incredible market. This included a stop at a small local cafe for coffee. Yangon was a most interesting trek with good pedestrian access throughout. The tour is a good way to introduce yourself to the city if you are a new visitor. I really enjoyed the ramble and Mr. Htike was a very professional informative guide.
