Myanmar Adventure Tours

MYANMAR ADVENTURE TOURS

Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, is a fascinating country, where timeless landscapes and ancient traditions fill the land. Over half of the country is covered by jungles. The enormous Irrawaddy River dissects the country in two. Beautifully preserved temples fill the countryside. For those seeking adventurous travels in an exotic land, look no further than Myanmar!

Travel the local way - by bike! - to explore the best of the country.  The rural areas are filled with breathtaking scenery and traveling on two wheels gives you the chance to interact with villagers and encounter wildlife. Even in the larger towns such as Yangon and Mandalay, the traffic is light enough to ride around and enjoy the architecture, sights, and busy markets. Some of our favorite cycling journeys are around the plains of Bagan (or Pagan) and outside of Mandalay to the ancient city of Mingun. The cycling is along mostly flat roads filled with picturesque views.

Trekking tours in Myanmar range from light day treks to week-long expeditions up Himalayan Mountains. Along the border with China, Kengtung is the destination for trekking in Myanmar. Surrounded by endless green mountains and rivers, the area is inhabited by hill tribe people and ideal for a cultural and adventurous trek. In the Shan State, near Inle Lake, lies the towns of Pindaya and Kalaw which are great jumping off points for treks through villages inhabited by ethnic minorities such as Danu and Pa-Oh. For the serious trekker, head north to where the Himalayas fall into Myanmar and embark on a long trek through remote villages and up towering mountains. 

In the far north, Putao is the starting point for most of the long trekking adventures but is also a great place for ‘soft’ adventures such as elephant riding and river rafting. For other water sports, Myanmar’s tropical Mergui Archipelago is ideal. Unspoiled beauty, endless stretches of blue water, and a vast array of marine life make it the best spot in the region for snorkeling, scuba diving, and sea kayaking.
