Overview

Our walking tour of Yangon teases out the stories and secrets of a city with a turbulent history. As well as visiting the Secretariat and the principal colonial buildings in downtown Yangon, our guide will take you to lesser known and lesser frequented locations which nonetheless have stories to tell.

This walking tour looks at the growth of Yangon from a small Mon village to a multicultural hub. This tour will dive into how visitors from the east and the west have contributed to Yangon's rich tapestry. We will enter teashops and temples, shake hands with the city's residents and think about what the future has in store for this remarkable metropolis.
