This Bago trip experience was much better than my entire stay in Yangon - Guide picked me right on time from hotel. We travelled through all the sightseeings, and at every stop guide told stories from history and national traditions. Also, we had a great chat about everything during the entire trip. The trip was seamless and left positive impressions only.

Great tour by a organised and professional company. - The Bago full day tour is a great day trip out of Yangon. Bago is a former capital and has loads of history to discover but feels more like an authentic Myanmar town, which makes it a nice contrast to the city experience in Yangon.
The tour was well organised and included all the main sites there are to see, plus some extras like the WWII cemetery, the local market and a monk monastery.
The tour guide was very helpful and informative and made the trip a joy. Also when I realised I forgot some possessions on the trip, they went out of their way to retrieve it and drop the item off at the hotel the next day!
