Yangon Sule Pagoda

About this activity

See Yangon's highlights in one private morning. Four hours is enough to see what makes Yangon special, as long as the route is well planned. This private half day tour links the city's main landmarks with your own guide and driver, starting from your hotel in the morning.

First comes Sule Pagoda, said to be more than 2,000 years old and busy with pilgrims and monks throughout the day. Around it stand City Hall, the High Court and the Independence Monument in Maha Bandula Park. A short drive leads to Bogyoke Market, also called Scott's Market, where bargaining over handicrafts is part of the fun.

Next, pass Kandawgyi Lake and stop to photograph Karaweik Hall, a replica of a royal Burmese barge. The tour ends with an extended visit to Shwedagon Pagoda, almost 98 metres tall, covered in gold plates and topped with 5,448 diamonds.

Your driver takes you back to your hotel around midday. Book this private tour for a complete first look at Yangon.
