I’d love to make this as an actual activity on my next trip to this lovely country. They’ve really got the authentic Asian smell from their soil which really brings my senses up and makes me smile. Thanks for the tips!

This really does sound like a magical three days. Your photos are stunning and the people sound incredible – including your guide. I’ve yet to make it to Myanmar but I am bookmarking this for when I eventually get there. Thanks!

The scenery is so varied and beautiful! I’d like to visit Myanmar soon and will consider your recommendations. It reminds me a bit of a trek I did in the mountains of northern Thailand a few years ago. It is so nice that you got to interact with locals as well!

I’d love to visit Myanmar and get out to explore the countryside. The authenticity really strikes a cord. How was the terrain overall? Was the hiking moderate, strenuous, etc?

Agree – this is a massive highlight in the country. Inle Lake left us in two minds. On the one hand a completely tourist trap, but on the other, still so unique and worth visiting – it was the way they parading the long necked women which made it feel like a zoo/circus 🙁

I loved Bagan and it really blew my mind but unfortunately did not get to Kalaw. I wanted to but just did not have enough time! Looks truly beautiful
