Fascinating Glimpse of Old India - Unique and fascinating tour. I especially liked the senior Hindu priest’s sharing with us his temple’s history and beliefs. Plus a great meal. As they say here, Jezzubah!

VERY GOOD TOUR, WORTH THE MONEY - The guide was great and understood that we were vegetarian - took us to a nice Indian restaurant for lunch. They kept asking if we wanted water - very attentive.
The tour itself was very good. Very well organised, detailed information was given at each attraction.
We really enjoyed our day and would recommend it to anyone interested in the Indian culture/history in Yangon.
