Hi

As you are the traveller, it will be best for you that you give me one final itinerary. This is because the Myanmar tourism is booming and it is extremely difficult for my Myanmar staff to give various prices for various options as they have "too much" business in this time. Various options will lead to differently quotations and in the end much confusion. Pl spend some time thinking where you want to go and plan one itinerary for the quotation. Pl let me know as soon as possible.

Hi David,

Could you also please give another option of:

- not doing golden rock, 

- extending 2 nights in bagan , 

- 2 nights inle and on 

- 31 Dec, we take domestic flight Mandalay-Yangon. Do city tour half a day and head to airport for flight back to Singapore?

Will also consider any other options you offer. 

Thanks.
