Bagan

Culture & history

Benefit from morning pickup from your hotel by air-conditioned vehicle, and then take a stroll around the colorful local market. Continue to the most significant temples and pagodas, such as the 11th-century Shwezigon Pagoda built by King Anawratha. Marvel at the oldest original paintings in Bagan at the Gubyaukgyi Temple, and look at the four Buddha statues of the Ananda Temple. Break for lunch at a local restaurant or your hotel, and then visit the traditional lacquerware village of Myinkaba. Visit the Mon-style Manuha Temple, and gaze in wonder at the unique sandstone Nanpaya Temple. End with a panoramic view of the sunset at the Bupaya Pagoda on the banks of the Irrawaddy River before getting dropped off at your hotel.

Ensure a stress-free vacation from start to finish and book your Mandalay to Bagan transfer in advance. After getting picked up from your hotel in Mandalay in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, sit back and relax on the 4-hour ride to Bagan. Soak up views of the scenery along the way, including Tada-U and Myothar City. After around 2.5 hours, take a break in Myingyan before continuing onto your final destination. Upon arrival in Bagan, a UNESCO listed location, get dropped off directly at your new hotel.
