Pleasurable Bago Tour

Upon arrival the former capital Myanmar-Yangon, you will be warmly welcomed by our guides and transferred to your hotel for check-in. On the way to your hotel you can easily see that Yangon's infrastructure is undeveloped compared to those of other major cities in Southeast Asia, but it has the largest number of colonial buildings in the region today. After checking in at your hotel, we will begin our tour of the city. It doesn't take a long time for tourists to be fascinated by the lush green park, picturesque lakes, and the charming people.

After moving around the city, we will stop at the highlights of the city. First destination is Chaukhtatgyi Temple which has one of the biggest and most graceful Reclining Buddha statues in South East Asia. Then we move to the Botataung Pagoda - a famous pagoda located in downtown Yangon, Myanmar, near the Yangon River. Our next destination Sule Pagoda where houses a hair given by the Buddha. To complete the city tour, let's climb up the Shwedagon Pagoda to enjoy the sunset and breathtaking beauty of the plain below.

Stay overnight in Yangon.

In the early morning, we move to Bago to start a full day of exploring Bago's scene as well as people. As Bago was the Mon capital in the earlier centuries, you can find many Mon people still living there. It can be said that Mon people are considered the most artistic and beautiful people, so that is a great opportunity for tourists to contemplate the amazing works with their own eyes.

You, firstly, start a visit to Shwemawdaw Pagoda. Like the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Shwemawdaw Myanmar stupa is reached by a covered walkway lined with stalls some with interesting collections of antique bits and pieces. Besides, there is a collection of rather faded and dusty paintings along the sides of the walkway which illustrates the terrible effects of the 1930 earthquake and shows the subsequent rebuilding of this mighty stupa in Myanmar Bago.

You are also directed to Shwetharhlaung pagoda and Kyaik Pun or Four faces pagodas. Your last stop today will be Taukkyant War Cemetery of WW II which is the resting place of the British, Australian, Indian, African and Burmese soldiers who fought and lost their lives in World War II. At dusk, we drive back to Yangon.

Stay overnight in Yangon.

Before your departure flight time, our tour guide will lead you to some other highlights of Yangon city if possible. You will visit Karaweik Royal Barge, an attraction on its own in Kandawgyi Lake. It is a huge reproduction of a royal barge that sits on the eastern edge of the lake. This structure is an up-market functional restaurant holding dance performances in the evenings. Then, you can enjoy shopping at the biggest market in Myanmar. Everything from common products like clothing and food to luxury goods like gems are sold in Bogyoke Market. Don't miss an opportunity to buy some beautiful items for family and friends. Let's wander through the China town to observe the other facet of life in Myanmar before transferring to the airport for your departure flight. End up tour service.
