Activity itinerary

Chaukhtatgyi Buddha
  • 45m
Your tour begins with a visit to Chaukhtatgyi Pagoda, home to Yangon’s most impressive reclining Buddha. Stretching over 65 meters long, this colossal figure rests in serene splendor, its calm expression symbolizing peace and enlightenment. Your guide will explain the symbolism of the statue’s intricate details — from the soles of the Buddha’s feet covered in sacred markings to the colorful murals surrounding the hall. As you explore, you’ll witness local devotees offering flowers, incense, and prayers, giving you a genuine glimpse into Myanmar’s living Buddhist traditions. This stop sets the tone for the day, combining awe-inspiring scale with spiritual depth.
Kandawgyi Park
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
After exploring the reclining Buddha, you’ll enjoy a refreshing pause at Kandawgyi Lake & Park, one of Yangon’s most scenic escapes. Stroll along charming wooden boardwalks and tree-lined paths that circle the lake, where the calm waters often reflect the golden spire of Shwedagon Pagoda in the distance. Admire the striking Karaweik Palace, a golden barge-shaped pavilion that floats gracefully on the lake, and capture unforgettable photos of its ornate design. Your guide will share stories about the lake’s history and its role as a beloved gathering place for locals — a spot where families picnic, couples stroll, and children play. This stop offers a perfect balance of nature, culture, and relaxation before continuing deeper into Yangon’s heart.
Sule Pagoda
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
In the heart of downtown Yangon, Sule Pagoda rises like a golden beacon amid the bustle of city life. Believed to be over 2,000 years old, this shimmering stupa is more than a religious site — it has served as a spiritual center and a gathering place throughout Myanmar’s history. As you circle the pagoda with your guide, you’ll admire intricate shrines, carvings, and Buddha images, while learning about its role in the city’s cultural and political life. The contrast here is striking: ancient devotion inside the pagoda grounds, and the hum of traffic, markets, and colonial-era buildings just outside. It’s the perfect stop to experience how Yangon’s past and present come together in one unforgettable landmark.
Bogyoke Aung San Market
  • 1h
Step into Yangon’s storied past as you stroll through the colonial quarter, where grand buildings like City Hall, the High Court, and heritage churches line bustling streets. Your guide will share captivating stories about the city’s history as you admire intricate facades and capture striking photos of colonial architecture set against the vibrant rhythm of modern life. Just a short walk away, you’ll dive into the lively atmosphere of Bogyoke Aung San Market (closed Mondays & public holidays). Here, rows of stalls overflow with treasures — from glittering gemstones and handwoven textiles to traditional lacquerware and one-of-a-kind handicrafts. As you explore, you’ll have time to shop for meaningful souvenirs, interact with friendly vendors, and soak in the colorful spirit of one of Yangon’s most famous marketplaces.
Shwedagon Pagoda
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Your day concludes at the magnificent Shwedagon Pagoda, the most sacred site in Myanmar and a true icon of Yangon. Rising nearly 100 meters and covered in shimmering gold leaf, the stupa dominates the city skyline and has inspired devotion for over 2,500 years. With your guide, you’ll explore the sprawling complex of shrines, prayer halls, and statues adorned with jewels and offerings, while learning the legends that make Shwedagon the spiritual heart of the nation. As the sun begins to set, the stupa glows in warm golden light, candles are lit, and the sound of monks chanting fills the air — creating a magical and unforgettable atmosphere. Ending your tour here ensures your Yangon journey closes with a moment of awe, serenity, and beauty that will stay with you long after your visit.
