This 6-day tour starts in Yangon, a charming colonial city that holds an architectural gem: Shwedagon Pagoda. Then you head towards the north-east of the country and see the fascinating brick temples of Bagan, formerly Pagan. Enjoy a bicycle and carriage wander through its natural archaeological park. To end your tour through Myanmar, the Intha and Shan ethnic groups welcome you to Inle Lake and share their way of life, their heritage and their unique crafts.
