Excellent experience in Bangkok
Ying was our guide in Bangkok. She was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. She knew exactly how to move us through crowds quickly so that we could see all we wanted to say and made good recommendations for other things we were interested in. I would not hesitate to recommend Ying or anyone that helped us at Asia highlights More

Excellent travel advisor, itinerary and tour guides
Miss Tanny, our guide in Bangkok, was personable and very patient. She kept us informed of the day's activities and kept us entertained with her sense of humor. Miss Lisa, our Phuket guide, was very polite and soft spoken. The young people in our group relate well with her. More

- Important information for this honeymoon:
There are a lot of things to plan and consider and we can help you with the most difficult ones. From visas to hotels, we dedicate time and effort for every detail of your honeymoon.
Today Yangon is going to take you for a ride. Take the Circular Train in Yangon, stroll in a local market and maybe grab a coffee from a local shop. Visit the National Museum and Colonial District, as well as Aung San Suu Kyi's house.
Highlight of Today: Yangon Ride
Local people's daily transportation to get around the city and your chance to be a part of their daily life.
The ride starts from the Center Station all the way to a local market that is not on many guidebooks. Stroll amongst the stalls and have a cup of coffee or tea.
Take a morning flight to Bagan; Nyuang U airport town is 40-minute drive away from Bagan.
After a short break, you will visit Bagan Archaeological Zone. Given some pagodas are only a hallow shell, your tour guide will pick some textbook examples, such as Ananda Pagoda, Dhammayangyi Pagoda, Maha Bodhi Pagoda and Dhammayangyi Temple for your visit. Finish today with a private dinner with mesmerizing sunset view of the pagoda-filled plains of Bagan.
Early in the morning, you will be escorted to the launching point for a hot air balloon ride. We have arranged a premium flight experience in a smaller craft with less people and more intimacy.
After the ride, make your way to our local office where you will be picked up with fellow travelers onto an adventure.
Visit Pakkoku and its bustling market and stop at a small village (which is rarely mentioned in guidebooks or internet). Get back to hotel on your own before the evening.
Highlight of Today: Full-rounded Bagan Experience
Fly up in the sky with your love and later, interact with locals who would share their exotic lifestyles.
For the hot air balloon flight, it starts at 0500am with a join-in pickup by the balloon company. Learn as you watch how your French piolet (or Swiss, depending on who's on duty for you) prepares for the flight. Floating up to the sky, you will see Bagan plains from a different, and absolutely intriguing angle.
The adventure to Pakkoku and the less-known village of Kyunkalay brings you away from the crowds. A close-up interaction with local vendors and villagers helps you understand how we help the local community in a substantial way.
Take a morning flight to Mandalay and check in hotel. In the afternoon, you will be out to Amarapura, where you will saunter around the peaceful town and take a private boat ride to view sunset at the U Bein Bridge.
2 nights at Sedona Hotel Mandalay (Handpicked Comfort) / Rupar Mandalar Resort Hotel (Luxury)
Be an early bird today and witness the holy face-washing ritual at Mahamuni Pagoda with the locals.
Visit the unique-built teak monastery of Shwe Inn Pin Monastery and the world's biggest book, followed by a simple lunch. Go with the locals to lay your piece of gold leaf onto the largest Buddha image at Mahanyatmuni Pagoda and stop by a gold leaf factory to see how it's made. Get back to your hotel or get onto the top of Mandalay Hill at sunset if you still feel active.
Highlight of Today: Enlighting and Delighting
Mandalay has been the country's Buddhism schooling center and people are living their faith every minute. Today you are not an outsider but also a participant.
For the face-washing ritual in Mahamuni Pagoda, you will sit among the locals while a resident monk rinses the surface of the Buddha image and polish with a special-made powder. The towels that are used for the ritual are considered sacred. People believe good luck will be bestowed on them if they get to bring home these used towels. At Mahanyatmuni Pagoda, learn about why people keep layering the Buddha with gold leaf.
Fly to Chiang Mai (where Visa-on-Arrival is possible and easy) and free at leisure.

Feel the vibe of Bangkok by an adventure on Tuk tuk, skytrain or other local transportation. Wrap it up today with a food hunt.
Highlight of Today: Bangkok on Tuk Tuk
Your private tour guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel in the morning. Start your day with a visit to the Grand Palace and Temple of Emerald Buddha in downtown of Bangkok.
Afterwards, hop on a tuk tuk to start your adventure in Bangkok. Get to Amulet Market where you will find a lot of funk stuff that is used in Buddhism practice.
Have some simple lunch at a nearby restaurant. Get away from the mid-day heat at National Museum, where you will learn more about this amazing country.
Another tuk tuk ride awaits! Roam to Wat Saket (Golden Mount Temple) that is built on the top of a mountain. You will take 381 steps up to the temple and get a good view of the city.
Embark a fun food adventure after another leg of tuk tuk ride to the iconic Chinatown. Try out the mouth-watering toasted bread or a bowl of bird's nest, or feast on a seafood BBQ. The bustling Chinatown can be a real treat for both your eyes and taste buds.
