What travelers are saying

Mount Kyaiktiyo (Kyite Htee Yoe), famous for the huge golden rock perched at its summit, is one of the three most sacred religious sites in Myanmar, along with the Shwedagon Pagoda and the Mahamuni Temple.

Our guide, U Khin (pronounced as "Ooo Khin") is a great fellow who speaks very good English and the cost of our day trip was USD160 (for two of us) You can contact U Khin at (+95) 9 44222 1160.
