Myanmar

Why not?

Visiting Myanmar is still a rewarding experience, despite the political challenges the country faces. Life in Yangon, its largest city, remains surprisingly normal for visitors, with daily routines continuing as usual. The friendly, warm-hearted people are eager to share their rich culture and hospitality with travelers.

Bagan, with its thousands of ancient temples, is a must-see destination and domestic flights from Yangon are operating every Friday and Sunday. The iconic balloon rides over Bagan have resumed services and are offering stunning aerial views of this historical site, providing a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For those seeking adventure, an overland trip from Bagan via Mount Popa to Inle Lake is a fantastic way to explore the country’s natural beauty and serene atmosphere.

Myanmar’s charm lies in its authenticity, resilience and welcoming spirit, making it a memorable destination for any traveler and a perfect option to combine with Thailand.
