Since Kyaiktiyo appears in the book "500 Sacred Places of the World", we couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit the day before our regular Myanmar tour.
Our driver picked us up promptly at our hotel at 6 a.m. accompanied by our guide Maggie in our own private vehicle. Along the way we stopped for a delicious breakfast at a roadside establishment and the traditional mohinga was perfect.
We enjoyed passing local towns and their morning markets in full swing.
The Golden Rock is certainly a sight to see and the bumpy truck ride up the hill was lots of fun sharing with the locals and laughing children.
On the return trip, Maggie catered to my wife's special request to see elephants at the Winga Baw Conservation Camp....what a beautiful surprise!
Lunch at another roadside place was fantastic with a nice farm fresh spread. We even stopped at a fruit stand to taste some of those incredible pomelos.
We surely appreciated the special care and personal attention that was given to us on this adventure which was well worth it.
Thanks Maggie for a memorable day!

Nang et son chauffeur sont venus nous cherchés à notre appartement. Très ponctuels, ils nous ont amenés prendre un petit déjeuner typiques Birman, délicieux ! Ensuite visite du cimetière militaire (seconde guerre). Puis en route pour le rocher d'or. Une visite sympathique rendu magique par l'accompagnement de Nang et de ses explications. Notre guide nous a permis de mieux comprendre la culture birmane et a répondu à nos nombreuses questions avec enthousiasme. Le déjeuner traditionnel proposé était vraiment excellent ! Une petite pause avec une dégustation de pomelos sucrés et juteux et nous avons repris la route pour le retour à Yagoon. Le véhicule est très confortable et notre chauffeur, très serviable également, a toujours eu une conduite prudente et agréable. Nous ne pouvons que recommander cette excursion qui aurait été, je pense, bien plus terne sans l'accompagnement de Nang et de son chauffeur. Merci beaucoup !
