Burma

Myanmar is a country of history, culture, and incredibly beautiful landscapes, and we are delighted - finally - to be offering holidays there. After much discussion in recent years about the morality of sending people to a country ruled by a brutal military junta, dissident leader Aung San Suu Kyi announced that tourism might actually help draw attention to her country's plight. Now we have been, seen and loved the country and are delighted to introduce one of South East Asia's finest destinations.

We offer three different ways to see the best of what Burma has to offer: one, a tailormade tour of the best bits from Yangon to Bagan and Lake Inle; secondly a set departure cruise along the famous Irrawaddy River from Bagan to Mandalay; and finally, an amazing new balloon safari across the country, staying each night in charming villages. We can even combine all three into one super-itinerary, but which ever way you choose to see this magical country, you will never forget the eye-catching pagodas in Yangon, the village life around Inle Lake and the sheer charm of the local inhabitants, who are guaranteed to be grateful you came.
