Plan A Successful Private Tour to Myanmar


Attempting to create a DIY Burma tour? Why not book a Myanmar private tour instead? Planning is so much easier if you work with a reliable tour operator. With their experience and local knowledge, success is guaranteed.

While you can just let your operator create a Myanmar private tour on your behalf, it’s a good idea to take part in the planning process. If you want to make everything perfect for your vacation, then follow this short guide.

1. Do some research on the must-see destinations in Myanmar

Do a quick internet search to know the highly recommended places to visit in the country. Are there things and activities that appeal to you in particular? How much do they cost? What are the tourists saying about the destination and their experience? During this stage, you are simply gathering some info and setting expectations. Just list down everything that seems like a good idea for now.  

2. Think about your interests

Once you have listed the top 20 or more places to visit, it's time to filter your options. It’s not like you'll be able to do everything if you will only be in Myanmar for a few days. Think about your likes and interests. If you are more of a nature lover, then trekking and camping might be the best places for you. If you love learning about history and traditions, then don't forget to add cultural sites in your Myanmar private tour.

3. Ask the operators for recommendations

The truth is that there is more to Myanmar than what the internet shows. Search engines often give only the most popular answers. If you want to discover new sites and less-known destinations, ask your local tour operator. They know beautiful places off the beaten paths. There, you can avoid long queues and have the place to yourself.

4. Consider your budget

Myanmar private tours are usually more expensive than large group tours, but with proper budgeting, you can keep your expenses at the minimum. Don't be afraid to ask for help from your tour operator. They can guide you in creating a custom itinerary that fits your budget.
