Hi David

Thank you for the itinerary which we have now looked at.

It looks good but maybe a bit too much moving around. Can we not go to Mandalay and have an extra day or two in Bagan or Inle?

We are interested in staying maybe at more upmarket hotels – realising this will be more expensive but we  our preference would be for interesting  boutique type hotels not state run.

Thank you

Look forward to hearing from you
