Myanmar in Style

Yangon - Heho - Inle Lake - In Dein - Inle - Heho - Bagan - Yangon

Discover an enigmatic and deeply spiritual Myanmar as you journey through one of Southeast Asia's most complex and least visited country. Traveling in style, you will be put up in some of the best and elegant hotels unrivalled in service and thought. Be enchanted and awed by grand Yangon, relax in the peace of Inle Lake and relish in the rich archaeological wonders on the Bagan plains.

Starting in Yangon, you will readily observe the differences between this Burmese city with other contemporary Asian cities. With relatively few modern structures and ample gardens and lakes dotting the city landscape, Yangon retains its distinctive heritage of British, Burmese Indian and Chinese influences. Be awed by the renowned Shwedagon Pagoda, its famed golden dome that has since become the architectural icon of Myanmar and continues to dominate the city skyline today. You will have time to wander in the oriental bazaars to hunt for Burmese handicrafts.

At Heho, we will bring you to Inle Lake, one of the most spectacular lakes in Southeast Asia and which is probably most remembered for its Intha fishermen and their extraordinary one-legged boat rowing techniques. Staying at the lakefront suite in Inle Princess Resort, you will revel in the serendipity and tranquility of Inle Lake while learning about ancient crafts of lacquering and cigarette making.

A flight to up north to Bagan will bring you to the very center of Myanmar. You will be enthralled by the sheer majesty of Bagan with the thousands of pagodas and stupas strewn across the wide expanse of plains. At dawn and dusk, enjoy the glorious view of hues of gold reflecting off the many domes and spires as you ride on horse-driven carriages.
