Myo was our guide and tried to give us an insight into Yangon life - it was great, the train winding through the suburbs and urban area, markets and residential area of Yangon - Myo explained so much that you could never have found out otherwise and he had such enthusiasm.

Mio was really great - fun and personable. His English knowledge is excellent and very fluent. My one suggestion - and it is a minor one - is that he slow down a tad and ennunciate a bit. My older ears sometimes had trouble keeping up.

Myo was a great guide, friendly and very knowledgeable about the history and customs of the country. The food recommendations were also really good. I found I learnt more then I would have if I had just travelled the circle line with just a lonely planet. There were a couple of times when he was hard to understand but that wasn't often.

a nice and interresting trip, full of impressions

Mr. Gerhard M., Yangon, 21 Jan 2016

I had a fantastic time! A fast paced walking tour right through the heart of the city, down side streets I never would have otherwise visited. It was a great orientation to the city. Our guide, Myo, was wonderful and informative, giving us information not just about the immediate area and sights, but about Yangon and Myanmar culture in general. He also recognised a few days later when we were waiting at the airport. Such incredibly friendly service! Very happy with the tour – definitely exceeded my expectations.

Book it!! This was a brilliant beginning to our trip to Myanmar. I highly recommend it. We got right in there and it was so much fun, so much to see and so much hustle and bustle! It gave us a lot more confidence getting around town too. I am definitely booking another urban adventure in a new country that I visit to give me the same confidence and insight into the city/culture.

"Let Yangon take you for a ride" was a fantastic way to get a glimpse of the different aspects of life in Yangon, from the hustle and bustle of downtown, the nuances of suburbia, the serenity of rural life and the frenetic experience that was the vegetable market at Danyingon. Our local guide Myo ensured that it was not just a day sitting on a train, by providing insight into life in Yangon, navigating monsoon showers and keeping us well watered and fed. The most charming surprise was an email several days later complete with photos of our day - thank you so much!

Having only arrived 7 hours before my "Let Yangon Take You For A Ride" tour was set to start, I was a bit nervous that my jet lag would get the best of me. But it turned out to be the perfect experience for my first day in Myanmar. Although culturally intensive, the lazy train ride through urban then suburban landscapes, villages and agricultural areas was beautiful. Thura was early and eager to get going. As the only one on the tour, I was privileged to get his full attention and get a chance to ask all my burning questions. He's passionate and proud of his country, open and honest, fluent and well-spoken. It was a real pleasure to spend the day with him - like hanging out with a local friend. This tour is the ultimate local experience. I didn't see a single tourist during the whole trip and I loved taking on local transit, being thrown into the middle of an abundant, lively vegetable market, and getting to have my first taste of delicious Burmese food. This tour really inspired the theme for my Intrepid trip, which started that evening - to paraphrase Henry Miller, "Burma is not a place, but a new way of seeing things".

Ms. Sarah B., Yangon, 28 May 2015

My partner and I did the Let Yangon Take You For a Ride day tour, our guide was Thura Lwin, we was a great guide, who had clearly dedicated a lot of time to learning English and taught us a lot about the local culture and language and it was great talking to him the whole tour. The train ride itself was different in a good way, a whole other side to Yangon, we both had a great time and I recommend it to anyone.

Mr. James P., Yangon, 31 Jan 2015

An amazing adventure - immersed amongst the locals on train, bus and trishaw, visits to a colourful local market, tea shop and temple. Win is an excellent guide - learnt a lot. The only slight problem was that the phone number for re-confirmation doesn't work but this was sorted out via e-mail.
