Cultural Tours of Burma by The Mountain Company

Schwedagon pagoda in Burma

The Mountain Company has been operating in Burma, also known as Myanmar, since 2005. Our Managing Director, Roland Hunter, has set up our tours based on his knowledge of the country. He has inspected a large number of hotels and selected the best ones for our tour itineraries.

With our Cultural Tours of Burma you have time to explore the most fabled sights including the temples and pagodas of Bagan; the former capital of Mandalay and watch the sunset at U-Bein Bridge. At Inle Lake, you take a boat to the hotel and along the way you should see the famous leg-rowing fishermen and the floating gardens. In Yangon, you will see the glittering Shwedagon Pagoda and also the colonial buildings
