Bike and bite tour - Great tour company. Highly recommended. We mistakenly booked our tour for the wrong date before we were even in Yangon. They emailed us letting us know we were late and we realize that we had booked the wrong day. We emailed them back and they promptly replied and said it was no problem and to come on the correct day and did not charge us any extra. My wife and I had a great tour with Swan through Dala and then he took us back across the river to Yangon and we were able to try some local cuisine. We tried 14 different things throughout the day and had no need for food until late in the evening. Swan was very enthusiastic, spoke great English, and could answer all of our questions. He provided more than we thought we were going to get out of the tour and we greatly appreciate it.

Bike Tour of Dala - A great experience, our guide Swan was excellent, he did great job, spoke excellent English, was enthusiastic and informative as well as ensuring we were safe on our bicycles. Well worth the trip saw everyday life on the other side, very different from downtown Yangon. Well done Swan you are an asset to the company. Many Thanks Tom & Jane

Highly Recommend - I have done a significant amount of tours throughout SE Asia and this was one of the best. The people of Dala are extremely friendly and the stops were all worthwhile. The guide was superb, I wish I could remember this name to add it here.

Fabulous experience - Terrific bike tour. Our guide Swan did a great job of introducing the lifestyle of the people in Dala, from the hectic scene at the ferry jetty to the local villages to the rural farmland. The bamboo bikes (yes really) are in good shape. The roads are mostly fine, with only a couple of busy spots to navigate. Swan paced the tour to our interests, with plenty of photo stops and good explanations of life in Dala. The stop at the local wet market was a highlight for us. The tour is good for recreational cyclists. Anyone with basic cycling experience could handle it. We considered renting bikes and going on our own. Having done the tour we strongly recommend going that route. Had we gone on our own, as we generally prefer, we would not have gotten as much from the experience as we did having Swan guide us. This was probably the highlight of our visit to Yangon. Money well spent.

Interesting experience - Compared with Yangon. Dala is completely another world. And the best way to visit is cycling. Our guide was a very nice lady.

Great experience in Dala - We really enjoyed our bicycle tour with our guide Swan in Yangon/Dala. Even though the weather was partially quite rainy, the tour was fun and interesting. Swan was well prepared and equipped us with rain coats. It was one of the most relaxed and authentic experiences we had so far in Myanmar. If I had to name a suggestion for improvement, I would say that the bicycles could be in a better condition. Nevertheless, we would always recommend this tour! Thank you, Swan! :)

Such a different experience from all the other things you can see in Yangon - it is a a different approach to visiting Yangon as the places you visit are completely different from the busy city. And it is very enjoyable to do it on a bike and with a very nice guide, Swann.
