Tour Overview
A journey to the most revered Buddhist temples and sites in Myanmar is perfectly complimented by a two day excursion to the serene Ngapali Beach. The Shwedagon Paya in Yangon, Golden Rock on Mt. Kyaikhtiyo and the ancient temples of Bagan occupy a place of chakra-like importance to both devotees and tourists alike. Combining the many cultural highlights across central Myanmar and the stunning beauty of the Bay of Bengal ensures that you will see the very best that this country has to offer.
The jewel of Yangon is the impressive Shwedagon Pagoda. This magnificent structure can be seen from around the city; no building dares to be higher than its Golden Spire. Believed to be 2,500 years old and enshrining eight of Lord Buddha’s hairs, the Shwedagon Pagoda is revered as one of the holiest sites by Buddhists throughout the world.
A short drive from Yangon, Mt. Kyaikhtiyo houses the Golden Rock Pagoda. Join in the company of pilgrims for whom a visit to this Paya is an essential spiritual journey. The mountain-top temple provides excellent opportunities for hiking and stops to surrounding villages allow you to interact with the local craftsmen and people who live in the shadow of this important Buddhist landmark.
In Bagan, you’ll view the “temple plains”, built in the 13th century during the Kingdom of Bagan’s influential apex. Consisting of seemingly endless fields of red brick stupas, this is an enduring monument to the spread of Buddhism in the region. A short drive to Mt. Popa will introduce you to the animistic faith of pre-Buddhism Burmese. Carved into the side of the mountain are many Nats (spirits) that were of vital import to early practitioners.
Finish at the ultimate beach getaway. The best known of Myanmar’s beaches (but still practically undiscovered compared to the other beaches in South-East Asia) allows you to indulge in luxury accommodations, fresh seafood and memorable snorkeling without the crowds found on other shores in the area.

All in all, this was a great trip
All in all, this was a great trip. I am reminded of something I read in a travel book some years ago which said Here’s what I love about travel; strangers get a chance to amaze you. In Myanmar, I found myself constantly amazed. I would love to go back and pick up the areas of the country that I missed on this trip and spend more time in the sites that I found to be particularly interesting and which required more time than I had on this trip to do them justice. I think things will begin to change rapidly in Myanmar now that liberalization has begun. I appreciate all the work Yampu staff put into developing this custom itinerary for me, and I wish all of you great success in building your business in Myanmar.

Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand
You did a great job in putting our trip to Myanmar, Cambodia and Thailand together considering all we did and where we did it. I want to commend Yampu, especially on all the guides and drivers such as they were very good. The guides were knowledgeable, very friendly, spoke good enough English and were courteous…I would not hesitate to have them in our home.
