Moe Moe from Real Treasure Travels & Tours was recommended to me by a friend who highly recommended her services. Moe Moe took great care in planning our itinerary and took into consideration the needs and interests of our travel party. Throughout the whole planning process, Moe Moe was very prompt in her communication and we were able to finalise the itinerary details very quickly. In this trip, we went to Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake and engaged Real Treasure Travels & Tours for Bagan and Inle Lake. We did not required a guide in Mandalay as we had a friend to bring us around. From Mandalay, we took a domestic flight to Bagan and started our tour with Moe Moe's team. Even though our tour only started in Bagan, She was very thoughtful and communicated to us the important things to note when leaving Mandalay, e.g. how early to leave our hotel in Mandalay so as to reach the airport by a certain timing. This was certainly helpful as we are not familiar with the road conditions and the travel time required. Thanks to her, we managed to catch our flight at a very comfortable pace! Moe Moe arranged one local guide in Bagan and one local guide in Inle Lake to bring us around Bagan and Inle Lake respectively. Both spoke good english and are extremely knowledgeable about the area and places of interest. We are very interested to know more about the daily lives of the locals and Moe Moe has very cleverly incorporated many workshops into our itinerary so that we can see and experience how their local products/ snacks are made. It was a very eye opening experience! We enjoyed those workshops, especially the cooking class at Inle Lake! Overall, we had a very comfortable and enjoyable trip in Myanmar. I would definitely recommend all to consider Real Treasure Travel & Tours as your travel agent when travelling in Myanmar. Moe Moe and her team are very nice and considerate people and has your best interests at heart when planning your itinerary. Her guides are extremely knowledgeable and friendly and it was a joy to meet them! Thank you Moe Moe, will contact you again if I have the opportunity to visit Myanmar again!

What an incredible day sight seeing. I was picked up promptly at my hotel, taken from one destination to another by my driver/guide Kobala (who was absolutely fantastic). He's very knowledgeable & amazing company to be with (I'm a solo traveller). The places we saw were incredible & the tour was a great way to see all the best parts of the city.

We booked a day trip through Bagan at Sun Travel and had a day with our wonderful guide Nai! He was not only brilliant in sharing knowledge about the Pagodas and Bagan, but also he gave us so much interesting information about life, politics and people in Myanmar. He always cared for us in an excellent way and was super friendly and very adaptive to our questions and interests. the finish with the boat trip was a unique experience that we don't want to miss. And we had a lot of fun with Nai during the day. His English is also very professional. You should also book such a tour.

This trip was outstanding. My guide, Ms San San Shwe was a font of knowledge, carefully planned the day to correspond with the heat and was happy to oblige with a side trip to ‘The Lady’s House’ to satisfy a bit of hero worship on my part. The circular railway was a great deal of fun also, but it was Ms Shwe’s knowledge, bubbly enthusiasm and obvious love of her country that won me over. If this is your first time in Myanmar, this is a must do tour. I was sooooo impressed.
