Important notes

 

The above tour is designed to give you a real “insight” into Yangon and includes visits to many local non-tourist places.

Clients should be advised that the tour means walking on broken pavements, and it could of course be very hot and humid in the city. 

The reward for any discomfort is the opportunity to see “the real Yangon”.

Depending on the hotel availability, late check out may not be available. Some hotel, however, provide the late check-out extra charges applied.
