A great tour on a short stay in Yangon - I really enjoyed every minute of this tour. My guide Sam was excellent so if you're lucky enough to have him as you're guide them you're in for a treat.
It was just me on the tour but Sam me the evening seem like one mate showing another mate his home town. We grabbed some local snack food and traditional tea and carried on our way. Took a squiz at the markets down by the river before taking a trishaw to 19th Street for some beer and more food.
Sam was kind enough to share some tips for the rest of my time in Myanmar which has come in handy

Monsoon rain didn’t dampen our spirits! - Had such blast on our tour! loved walking through the food stalls learning about Myanmar food culture and sitting down for a meal. The monsoon like rain during our trishaw ride was an experience! The guides were amazing (sorry i can’t remember your names!) very informative and proud of their culture and although we voluntarily cut our tour short due to weather, we loved every minute of it and wouldn’t have done it any other way!

Food, food and more food! - My guide was great. Please read as I did not realize it was primarily walking and trishaw was small. So if you're slightly large the ride may be uncomfortable. My guide was very knowledgeable and made sure I tried quite a few things despite be turning down a lot of food. The location for the beer was packed so I didn't experience that but I did notify my guide that I didn't drink beer so that was ok.
