From the moment I contacted Myanmar river cruises Chau Dinh :) could not have been more helpful. She was always quick to respond and very dedicated to helping me in any way. She organised the amazing Strand Cruise and later on most wonderful trip of Mandalay with ‘ Tommy’ as he called himself. She checked my flights when they were changed and was a constant reassurance if I had a question and a joy to work with and a credit to her company.

We met our guide at Yangon Central Railway Station on platform 6. I think he should have met us in front of the station as we had other people helping us to get to Platform 6. He seemed to speak English well, but we soon discovered that he spoke so fast and mumbled which made it very hard to understand or even want to. We then took the train for 5 stops to see a local market. Our guide just walked in front of us with very little explanation. It was a very busy market but we had seen many markets like this around Myanmar. Then he took us to a local restaurant and we were served some traditional food. We were happy to experience some of the food but he didn’t explain whether it was safe too, so we asked and he mumbled a yes. While we were at the restaurant our guide spent his time on his mobile. After this we took a bus back to downtown Yangon. This was a awful experience. We weren’t sitting together and nothing was explained about the journey, it was filthy and people were pushing, spitting etc. Also it took an hour as we were mainly sitting in traffic. Would not recommend this tour at all. We are experienced traveller’s and have had many local guides, caught many local buses, and eaten at many local restaurants around Asia and the world and have enjoyed all of them. Unfortunately we did not enjoy this one !! We

A dear friend Alex gifted me with this online cooking class. I included my sister and her daughter and yesterday at this time, people in three countries cooked an amazing meal with Marc. We had fun together, learned a lot - and ended up with a delicious meal that we will surely make again! This is highly recommended for anyone who loves to eat and for those who want a break from Covid isolation ????
5. A Burmese Tale - Yangon Food Tour
Overall Ratings
4.9 based on 9 reviews
Kick off from the central Mahabandoola Garden where your guide will take you to the first stop – grilled fish barbequed over hot charcoal and served with lime and tamarind dipping sauces. As you amble up through the backstreets of Old Yangon on your tour, you’ll dive into a famous noodle house famed for its authentic dishes from Shan province. You’ll start to see a marked difference in the dishes as you enter Yangon’s Little India. En route though the bustling neighborhood, you’ll make several stops to try hot, lightly spiced samosas, crisp dosas best dipped into a variety of pickles and curries and a famed Bengali sweet shop. Your next stop on our Yangon tour is Chinatown, a vibrant district with a fascinating history. It’s not short of places to eat, but not all are made equal. You’ll make stops at old Chinese bakeries, 3rd generation soup houses, a lively tea house for bao buns and springs runs and much more. End with cold Myanmar beer and barbecued skewers along the famed 19th street. *Sorry veggies, this one isn’t for you. We’re working on a meat-free Yangon tour which we hope to launch soon. **Vendors take time off too, so we can’t promise every Yangon food tour will be the same. Fear not, the night will always be packed with good stuff.

We booked this tour 2 weeks before the tour date and we were really looking forward to it. What a disappointment! We attempted to get it touch with our guide/the tour operator many times using the information available on our tickets and on trip advisor without success. We just wanted to reconfirm our tour, get in touch with our guide and ask a few questions in order to be prepared. We wrote several emails and tried to call many times but no one ever answered us. In good faith, we still showed up at the meeting point on the due date... we waited... and waited... no one ever showed up. The phone number isn’t being answered to and no one answers the email, we felt cheated. We are fortunate enough to be staying in a hotel with an amazing staff who are currently trying to help us getting our money back... to be continued...
9. Delicacies of Yangon Morning Tour
Where: YANGON ‘Yangon is the largest city in Myanmar (formerly Burma). A mix of British colonial architecture, modern high-rises and gilded Buddhist pagodas define its skyline making it visually intriguing. Its famed Shwedagon Pagoda, a huge shimmering pagoda complex, draws thousands of pilgrims annually. Despite not being the capital of Myanmar, this moved to Nay Pyi Taw in 2005, Yangon remains the cultural and commercial heart of Myanmar. The city has an eclectic range of museums, art galleries and markets, in which you can take in Myanmar culture. A trip to Scott Market will heighten your bartering skills and immerse you in the local flavor of a developing and engaging city’.

I am playing catch up as I haven't been here in quite a while,In 2016/2017 my partner and I travelled to Myanmar having a 3 week custom private tour. The Team at Tour East were excellent, Not only did everything go as planned the guides provided in each area were extremely knowledgeable and made suggestions re our itinerary to compliment what was already planned. Balloons over Bagan was probably a highlight however the while trip over something for all the senses and the people we met were wonderful.
