2 Days (1 Night) Downriver from Mandalay to Bagan
starting from $330
Board the RV Paukan and experience unforgettable moments on the Ayeyarwady. A river cruise on the Ayeyarwady is the journey of a lifetime. You will be amazed by the treasures – hidden from the world for so long – that you’ll see from this river, which flows through the whole of Myanmar. You will stop at Yandabo, a village specialising in pottery, and reach Bagan the next morning. Thousands of pagodas tower majestically in a timeless, preserved landscape and bear witness to the former glory of the first Burmese kingdom.
