This 15 day trip proceeds at a more contemplative pace offering more time for in-depth exploration the the great sites included and more time and opportunity for cross-cultural interaction. Your trip will feature our own fluent English speaking JOURNEYS Burmese guide. He or she will lead you to encounters with local places and people from all walks of life. You will feel the strong Buddhist character and tradition through participation in active pilgrimages and observation of temples or festivals. Your trip will reveal friendly people emerging from a history of totalitarian domination that has not affected their hospitality toward foreigners or their delight in making friends.
