Daily Program: Guided

Day 1: Arrive Yangon (and fly to Inle Lake)
Today we meet at the Yangon Airport for our flight to the Shan State. We then take a late morning flight to Heho and a short drive onto Nyang Shwe, the main Inle Lake town. We will be staying on the dry land next to the lake rather than on it. This gives you freedom to explore the area by bike in the afternoon. Tonight we have our first meal together. Meals: D 
Overnight at Inle Lake. 

Day 2: Boat & Bike Inle Lake (15 miles/25km) 
In the morning we take a ride around the area to learn a little about the local culture and the farming habits of the people here. We then cycle along the western bank of the lake, before taking a boat trip on the lake itself. Here we will see leg rowing fishermen, silk weaving, silversmiths and whole communities that exist in stilt houses on the lake. Everything from schools, shops, even basketball courts can be found out here, all within a short boat ride of each other. Meals: BL 
Overnight at Inle Lake. 

Day 3: Inle Lake (15 miles/25km)
In the morning we continue to explore the Inle area by bike. We encounter various groups of people farming their land and drawing a living from the huge lake. We find flower gardens as well as small fish markets on our way. After lunch we take a drive up into the eastern hills to visit the capital of the Shan State, Tuanggyi. Meals: BLD 

Day 4: Kalaw (9 miles/15 km)
We take a morning drive up into the western hills today and after a couple of hours in the car, we arrive into Kalaw, a former British Hill Station and home to an astounding mix of people, from descendents of Gurkha soldiers, to Bangladeshi immigrants, ethnic Pao O and Burmese. All share this picturesque setting with a small but fascinating market at its center. We explore the market on foot and then take to the bikes for a pedal around the town to see some of the remaining British influenced buildings. A hearty Nepalese meal is a good way to celebrate the diversity of Kalaw and enjoy some different food flavours. Meals: BLD 
Overnight in Kalaw.  

Day 5: Pindaya (15 miles/25km)
Today we start with a drive through a patchwork valley, surrounded by rolling hills. Local people in colourful costumes punctuate the greens, reds and yellows of the fields as we roll into the Pindaya area. We take to the bikes again and explore the villages here. A distinct change in terrain from the lakeside brings with it a different approach to farming and also to the building methods. Houses here are built from earth and need to withstand harsher weather.

As we roll into Pindaya town, we see the lake that this lovely little town is centered around. We then visit the Golden Cave, the town's most famous attraction. The cave features thousands of gold leaf Buddha images and is home to a tale of princesses and distress, rescued by a handsome prince from a giant spider. All the ingredients of a great story. Meals: BLD 
Overnight in Pindaya. 

Day 6: Mandalay 
Mandalay was the last royal capital of Myanmar and was the first city to be ransacked by the advancing British forces. The former Royal complex was destroyed in a fire during World War II, but you can still see the impressive walls and moat. The city of Mandalay is now a bustling commercial centre with fascinating local markets. We touch down in the late morning and then have the afternoon to wander on foot and explore town. Meals: B 
Overnight in Mandalay. 

Day 7: Mandalay (15 miles/25km) 
We take a bike ride beyond the bustle of the city to see the villages that exist around the periphery. Here we find a peaceful way of life, centered around the cycle of the farming seasons and traditional life. In the dry season while the land lays fallow, the villagers dedicate their time to traditional crafts such as making robes for monks, snacks to sell in market or other skills that have been passed down to them. Time permitting we take in the wooden monastery and Mandalay Hill before returning to the hotel. Meals: BLD 
Overnight in Mandalay. 

Day 8: U-bein Bridge & Mingun (15 miles/25km)
We first take a pleasant ride to the U-Bein Teak Bridge, the longest in the world, made from recycled wood at the time of the last royal capital relocation. We then continue on to a huge bell in Mingun before driving over the Irrawaddy to reach Monywa, a pleasant rural center where produce is traded and goods arrive from India. Meals: BLD
Overnight in Monywa.  

Day 9: Bagan (15 miles/25 km)
This morning we set out by crossing the Chidwin River on a small ferry. We then find ourselves on the more remote western bank of the river. Here we encounter fewer vehicles and many more surprised faces as we pedal down the quiet trails and roads to the Phwintaung Caves. These sandstone caves are a real treat. There are around 900 individual caves and while we won't have time to explore them all, we'll visit some of the most richly decorated. We then continue on our merry way and after visiting a small village, typical of this area, we drive to Pakokou where we board a boat to complete our journey to Bagan. We arrive as the sun dips low in the sky, spotlighting the pagodas of the Bagan Plain, turning them a rich orange color. Meals: BLD 
Overnight in Bagan. 

Day 10: Pagodas Day Ride in Bagan (15 miles/25km) 
The pagodas of the Bagan Plain are best visited early in the morning as the sandy landscape heats up by the middle of the day. We make good use of an early start and focus our visit on the temples that were built between 14th and 19th centuries, Shwezigon, the Sulamani, the Htilominlo, the Dhammayazika. In the late morning we find a shady tree to enjoy lunch under and then have an afternoon of free time before we find a spot to enjoy a peaceful sunset overlooking the temples. Meals: BL 
Overnight in Bagan. 

Day 11: Drive to Mount Popa 
Today we find some hills, but we'll be driving, so we can enjoy the view without the physical exertion. We climb up to the volcanic Mount Popa, home of the 37 Nat. Our destination is Mount Popa Resort with a clear, fresh pool and a view of the hill-top temple. In the afternoon, those wanting to get up close and personal with the tales of the Nat spirits can join your tour leader for a visit to Taung Kalat. Meals: BLD 
Overnight at Mount Popa.  

Day 12: Drive to Mandalay 
This morning we take a walk up the hill to see the lush green forest and to enjoy the views. We then drive to Mandalay via Kyaukpadan. We arrive into town around 5pm and then enjoy our last meal as a group. Meals: BLD 

Day 13: End of tour
The tour concludes today, you can leave any time that suits. The hotel can arrange airport transport as required. Meals: B
