undeveloped for most aspects of tourism.
Although Myanmar Elite will endeavor to
obtain the best available accommodations,
transport and facilities for guests, we
would ask their understanding for any
practical aspects which do not come up to
expectations, and for delays or changes in
itinerary. It is not recommended to travel
this region during Monsoon season
(June-mid-October), as heavy floods are
common.

our programs mentioned as close as
possible, however we reserve the
rights to alter them without notice
in case of unexpected changing or
canceling of scheduled flights. |
