Spectacular trip to Thailand!
Our 18-day private tour for two couples through Thailand and Siem Reap/Cambodia was nothing short of epic. From the initial planning with clear, responsive communication, we knew we were in expert hands.
The moment we landed, every detail was seamlessly handled. We were met by a series of incredibly courteous drivers and deeply knowledgeable guides who masterfully paced our journey—no visit ever felt rushed. They transformed stunning sites like the ancient ruins of Sukhothai into living history.
Along the tour, many lunches (if not all) were included; they were a-la-carte meals, a culinary delight, offering an incredible selection of authentic local dishes that pleased even our pickiest eater while becoming a highlight for our more adventurous friends. The curation was exceptional. Our hotels were great, with the Sukhothai Heritage Resort and Saii Phi Phi Village being a true slice of paradise.
Their excellence was truly proven when a flight was abruptly cancelled. Our tour contact, Kea, proactively presented solutions immediately, turning a potential disaster into a minor hiccup.
Note: We decided to take the Siem Reap part on our own, as my husband had already been there. This was not an issue, and Indochina Tour was very helpful arranging the flights to and from. In short, this trip was a perfect harmony of meticulous planning and flexible freedom. We felt completely cared for while exploring some of the world's most beautiful places. An unparalleled experience we cannot recommend highly enough.

Good times in Burma
My wife and I were in Burma November 15-19 and we travelled around the city of Yangon to see the fabulous Schwedagon Pagoda and the old colonial buildings. We flew from Yangon to Mandalay the next morning to catch a glimpse of the many pagodas that dotted this former capital.
Our very gracious tour guides Winthu and Sithu were just an example of how to be a good host.they made sure to provide everything that we need.and they both know their country’s History and culture as well.local food is delicious.places that we’ve been through are safe.thank you Indochine Tours for arranging our tour in Burma.

An excellent 23 days touring the cultural highlights of Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and North Thailand
Our trip was faultless. Every aeroplane, train and boat were on time as were all our guides and drivers.The standard of hotels and vehicles were very good and the drivers excellent. Our guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Our trip included lots of cultural experiences as well as the expected visits to the usual tourist sites. We enjoyed watching traditional dancing,boat trips, a massage, kayaking, karaoke, circus skills, puppet shows as well as several dinners with a show.
The food was excellent and Kea and Amara planned us an excellent itinerary. We had almost instant responses from them to any queries before our trip, and they ensured we knew of any changes of arrangements promptly. (One hotel had flooding &we were given an excellent replacement hotel with no stress for us at all) Our guides were sensitive to ensuring our visits to Temples etc were as crowd-free as was possible but allowed us plenty of time to absorb our surroundings/ museum exhibits and info etc.
We cannot praise Indochina Tours enough and were very impressed with Kea and Amara's inputs.

Rock Star Quality Experience!
We are two woman whose husbands want the security of us traveling with a competent driver and guide! And we felt like rock stars scooped up from the airport and they ensured every day would be the best experience for us. Kea put so much careful work in to our itinerary, but it was the driver and guide who pivoted the schedule to make the most of our time.
Somehow we dodged two big storms because of their conscientious attention to detail. Our guide saw many hikers slipped in the mud, so he rerouted us. He wanted us to see the Golden Hand Bridge in good weather so adjusted that schedule too. Every hotel was gorgeous and we felt like they were happy to see us. The guides spoke great English and really added so much knowledge and laughter to our tour. We felt so cared for and privileged to do this tour!

Private 5 star tour of Laos and Cambodia
From start to finish this was an excellent experience. First time with a private and will certainly consider doing another. Everything thing was first class and as regular small group Travellers we can highly recommend Pheakdey and Kea and Indochina tours.

Great company who tries to accommodate all the needs of its clients
Indochina Tour designed our trip of 20 days to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. Some days we had private tour guides ((they were the best and their English was very good) or we joined another tour for a day with a group of tourists. The guides and the drivers that took us to the airports, train station , cruise ship etc.. were always on time and very polite.
Our different advisors in the Head Quarters in Siem Reap and other locations, always answered our questions and solved any issues (e.g flooding in Hoi An as we needed to change the hotel). Indochina tour has done its outmost to let us experience the culture and enjoyment of the place of visit. We rode Tuk Tuk, a train, a cruise ship, trekked in rice fields and by villages. This outfit was concerned about our safety and provided good to excellent hotels in good locations, for our comfort. Thank you Indochina Tour.

Amazing service from Indochina Tour
Sreyprov from Indochina Tour arranged a magnificent private 18 day tour to Thailand & Vietnam. Everything from the moment we arrived to our last day was excellent! The tour schedule & each of the 6 tour guides were very professional, knowledgeable, respectful & friendly. The service we received from Sreyprov & also the operations manager Kea was exceptional, nothing was too much trouble almost an immediate response to any question raised by email or WhatsApp, both before and during the tour, I felt confident that we were always in capable hands.
Anyone considering to use the services of Indochina Tour, especially Sreyprov & Kea, I would highly recommend them & would have no hesitation to make a reservation. Personally, I am already considering my next Asian adventure with them!

The Best of 3 Counties!!
We had the most amazing tour!! We were very late in planning this trip and Sreypov, our Travel Consultant help with the initial planning, tailoring the trip to exactly what we want. Once we made the decision, we had Kea to help us every step of the way. I texted A LOT and I always got a quick response and all the answers I needed. The guides were wonderful, gave great insight to what we were seeing and I felt like we learned so much from them. We enjoyed all the places we visited.
Please do not hesitate to book a trip with Indochina Tours!! Sreypov and Kea are wonderful and will help to ensure you have the best time.

FAQs about Planning a Myanmar Trip
Is It Safe to Visit Myanmar Now? What Parts of Myanmar are Safe? 
Travel to Myanmar is open, and visitors continue to enjoy the rich culture and pristine nature of the country. The tourist centers with the main attractions in Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake are great places to visit that are safe for tourists.
Visitors to the country are warmly welcomed by local people. You'll find everyone happy to share their culture with visitors. Maintaining a safe environment for tourism is important for Myanmar, and people will do their best to ensure your stay is trouble-free.
It is still best to exercise caution. Stay up to date on the most recent information and follow recommended travel advisories. It's best to avoid travel in rural areas, and the northern and northwestern provinces.
Is It Easy to Get into Myanmar? How Do I Get to Myanmar?
The easiest way to get to Myanmar is to fly into Yangon. Direct flights are available from major transportation hubs such as Dubai, Seoul, Beijing, Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur. Connections from regional capitals like Hanoi, Bangkok, Vientiane, and Phnom Penh are also available.
A limited number of international routes are available to Mandalay. Flights can be booked from Kunming and Bangkok. Domestic flights between Yangon and Mandalay are available daily.
Do I Need a Visa to Visit Myanmar?
Tourist visas are required for international travelers visiting Myanmar. Travelers are recommended to apply through Myanmar's eVisa program. Visas are typically issued within three business days and are valid for a single-entry stay of up to 28 days.
To apply for the E-visa, go to the official government website, and upload a scan of your passport information page and photo. Provide proof of a return ticket and hotel reservation and pay the 50 USD fee. The visa will be emailed to you when completed, and you can show the electronic copy upon arrival at the airport.
What is the Best Time to Visit Myanmar?
Myanmar has a tropical climate with three seasons. From November to February, the weather is cooler and dry. Average temperatures in Mandalay are between 23°C and 26°C, with almost no rain at all. Planning outdoor activities is easy, and conditions are ideal for hiking or exploring the cities.
Some travelers prefer the shoulder season when fewer tourists are visiting. Dry conditions continue through March and April, but it starts to get hot. Yangon sees temperatures in the high 30s. October is still relatively cool, averaging 28°C, but there is some lingering rain from the monsoon season.
How Many Days Are Enough for a Myanmar Tour?
Plan on 6 to 12 days for a tour of Myanmar. The best highlights to see are in Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay, and Inle Lake, so you'll need a couple of days in each place.
Start in Yangon with sites like Shwedagon Pagoda and a trip to Kandawgyi Nature Park. Then, fly to Bagan to see the city's Buddhist ruins and beautiful lacquerware in the rural village of Phwasaw and Minanthu.
Mandalay needs in-depth exploration. Visit Atumashi Monastery and U Bein Bridge and see the traditional bronze casting and woodcarving workshops. From Mandalay, you can make the journey to Inle Lake and bask in the pristine environment and tranquil pagodas.
Is Myanmar Cheap to Visit Now? How Much Does a Trip Cost?
Currently, traveling to Myanmar is more affordable than it has been in the past, due to a decrease in tourism resulting from the ongoing civil conflict.
I believe this is the best time to visit Myanmar, as the reduced number of tourists offers a unique opportunity to experience the country in a more intimate and authentic way.
However, it’s important to travel with a local travel agency, like ours, to ensure a safe and well-organized experience.
Budget around 30-50 USD per day for an average trip in Myanmar. Food, transportation, and tourist attractions are very affordable in Myanmar, but hotel prices can raise the total cost.
Comfortable hotels can be found between 25 and 60 USD per night. The quality can vary a lot, so check online reviews before booking.
Street food and dining in local restaurants cost around 1-5 USD per person. The average taxi fare around Yangon is usually 2-3 USD.
How Much is $100 in Myanmar Currency? Can I Use US Dollars?
Myanmar's currency is the Kyat (MMK). At recent exchange rates, 100 USD can be exchanged for 209,865 MMK. Some establishments in tourist areas will accept USD, but it is recommended to use local currency.
Exchange rates given at restaurants and hotels are not always favorable. It is better to find the best rate at a bank or exchange counter.
How to Keep Safe when Visiting Myanmar?
Myanmar's tourist centers are safe places.
Crime is minimal, limited to opportunistic pottery crimes like pickpocketing and bag snatching. Keep an eye on your belongings, and exercise a general level of caution.
The ongoing troubles in the country are unpredictable but mostly affecting rural areas. Tourist attractions remain open and safe to visit. Like anywhere else, avoid isolated or unlit areas at night.
It's best to fly between different cities rather than traveling overland. Staying up to date with the local situation can keep you informed on places to avoid, but flying will better ensure you remain in safe areas.
What to Wear when visiting Myanmar?
Local culture is conservative. You won't see many people in shorts or sleeveless tops, and it's best to follow along. The longyi is preferred by both men and women. It's a single piece of cloth wrapped around the lower body like a skirt. Perfectly adapted for the climate, it will keep you cool.
Modest clothing is essential when visiting temples and religious sites. Clothing must cover your knees and shoulders. Hats, shoes, and socks must be removed before entering.
Dos and Dont's When Visiting Myanmar
Do smile and say hello, learn some basic phrases in the local language for greeting and thanking people.
Do be respectful of local traditions, people in Myanmar are proud of their traditional practices.
Do ask for permission before taking people's photos, and don't interrupt anyone engaged in meditation or prayer.
Do support local small businesses like restaurants, spas, and taxis.
Don't ask people about the current political situation.

Can I Travel to Myanmar Independently? Or Should I Travel with a Local Agency?
Independent travel is allowed in Myanmar. Do your research first and plan a clear itinerary, but once you're there, you should have little trouble making arrangements. Taxis and motorcycles can take you around in the cities, and flying between different destinations is straightforward.
Booking travel through a local agency is recommended, however. The situation in Myanmar is complex, and a local guide will be up to date on the latest travel conditions. Local expertise also helps for a smoother, and more immersive experience. Guides can show you the hidden gems and provide insight, background, and history of the places you visit.
