Thanks to all concerned at Mysterious Myanmar Tours. We had a rollicking good time experiencing the delights of this under-developed country. Or so we thought. Actually most of the hotels we stayed in were more than acceptable, particularly those in the big cities. We rode by bike on many good roads, including long downhill runs and a few gruelling uphill rides, overseen by Myintswe and his staff guiding us from their bikes. After these tiring rides we had welcome stops for long lunches drinking the local Myanmar beer – cheap as! Most of the local food was awesome. Try the street food especially the Burmese snack/dessert called “Khout Mote” literally meaning folded snack. You can also indulge in your favorite cocktails. You can buy the locally made spirits for less than US$2 a 500ml bottle. Myintswe made several different cocktails for us using rum, whisky and gin together with local fruits. Go to Myanmar. You won’t regret it. I thoroughly recommend Mysterious Myanmar Tours if you want a well organised, guided tour.
