We really pushed the limits with this group of true professionals by contacting them last-minute and not giving them the final go-ahead until we had our SIN-RGN boarding passes in hand. Koko mobilized at least 8 people to prepare to guide us, should we actually get on that flight. When we finally did get our standby seats confirmed, he gave everyone the thumbs-up and they put together an incredible 5-day Myanmar experience for us in Yangon, Mandalay, and Bagan. Each person communicated so perfectly and reliably and moved us from place to place exactly at the times described. The whole operation really impressed us. This whole country impressed us. We don't usually hire a tour company like this when we travel. But they came highly recommended and we quickly realized we would never have been able to see as much in these five days, had we tried to do things independently like we usually do. We highly recommend this company.

For our trip to Myanmar they provided a perfect service. The visit to Chin state was simply awesome: the driver/guide who accompanied us was very friendly and careful with local people. We visited private houses where we could talk to the tattoo women and have a real feeling of their traditions. Everything in full respect of their privacy. It was the best part of our trip!!! Nevertheless, their knowledge of Italian language, made everything easier. We made all the arrangement via mail: their response was very quick and efficient; beside that, Flora also speaks fluent Italian and this made everything easier. If you are planning to visit this beautiful Country and want to have a real "local experience" just get in contact with them!!

Due to our limited time we choose the 8 days tour. That was a great decision! Perfect organisation by Mr.Phyo and Team. From the very friendly reception on first day until departure we had a perfect and very interesting program and all our special extra wishes were fulfilled. Very efficient good English speaking guides, friendly save drivers and good cars. All four Inlandflights in time and easy to manage. All hotels very comfortable and good locations. We surely will come back and can highly recommend Nay Chi& La Min Travels. Thank you very much.
