Myanmar Balloon Safari
During the dark damp winter months leading up to Christmas why not treat yourself to a once in a lifetime journey and take a balloon safari over Myanmar? In late November and in the weeks leading up to Christmas set off on an air born trip across the Shan state and the stunning plains of Bagan for a birds eye view of this stunning country. Staying in the finest hotels with transfers by either boat or the Asia Elephant coach let us spoil and treat you to the charms of this country. Floating over the mesmerising Inle lake, the caves of Pindaya or the pagodas of Bagan is the only way to spend the gloomy November months this coming winter with a final few days relaxing on the stunning untouched beach at Ngaplali on the coast of the bay of Bengal.

Myanmar introduces Visa On Arrival
As of 1 May 2010 the Myanmar government has introduced a new visa on arrival system for all foreign nationals. With proof of US$300 on your person, or a confirmed itinerary and or a hotel booking in Yangon you will be able to secure yourself a visa on arrival at the airport in Yangon, unless you are on the government black list in which case you will be denied. We would still advise, where possible, clients secure a visa before travelling to Myanmar, but as a last minute option this is great news for the country.

New Spa Resort in Lake Inle
Pristine Lotus Spa Resort has opened on Inle lake and is ready for business now with a special opening promotion. The hotel has a total of 53 suites and is situated on the north east shore of the lake. The bungalows are spacious and nicely laid out but the hotel itself is not directly on the banks of the lake. A good alternative if our preferred rooms at the Inle Princess are not available. It also promises to have a fantastic spa with therapists from Bali.
