Tours Itinerary

Day 1: Yangon Arrival – Sunset at Myanmar’s Most Sacred Pagoda

  • Upon arrival in Yangon, you will be warmly welcomed by our local tour guide and transferred to your hotel for check-in. Enjoy some time at leisure to relax after your journey.
  • Later, begin a private city tour through downtown Yangon, discovering its fascinating blend of colonial architecture and local life. Pass by the historic Yangon General Post Office, the elegant Strand Hotel, Mahabandoola Garden, and the Independence Monument, reflecting Myanmar’s rich history.
  • Continue to Chauk Htat Gyi Pagoda, home to an impressive 70-meter-long reclining Buddha, where intricately carved symbols on the soles attract many local worshippers.
  • Stop for photos at the iconic Karaweik Hall before heading to the magnificent Shwedagon Pagoda. Observe pilgrims and monks offering prayers as you enjoy a breathtaking sunset over the glittering golden stupa—an unforgettable introduction to Myanmar.

Day 2: Yangon – Golden Rock (B)

  • Upon arrival, be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views and a truly spiritual atmosphere.

Tour of Vietnam

Impress travel were amazing. Did my bookings with Daniel for our tour of Vietnam and I must say Daniel was very professional and prompt with his services. All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!

The tour was fantastic

I booked with Impress Travel in July. My contact person was Tommy Thang. He is an amazing person. He was very helpful. He changed my program twice for me. Very accommodating!
We started our holiday in the north (Sapa)of Vietnam and travelled down to HCMC.
The tour was fantastic, Tommy's arrangements were to the"T".
I will always use them if I have to visit the area again and recommend them to one and all.
Thank you once again Mr.Tommy and the Impress Team.
