Myanmar Damsel is since 2008 our favorite travel agency. Nwe Nwe Khine and her team organized every year our trips in different areas of the country.
Nwe Nwe coordinated and organized every year our tailor made private tours to our satisfaction and fulfills all our wishes. When we had an unforeseen incidents which can happens (such as to loose money and passport etc.🙂) the agency was every time on hand to deal with help and solutions.
In December 2019 I had the wish to attend the Nat festival on Mount Kalat (Poppa).
After I stayed in Yangon and at Ngapaly Beach went my trip to Bagan. A guide and a driver picked me up and we went for three days to Popa Garden Resort, Mt. Poppa.
A beautiful resort. Thanks to the guide I was able to attend Nat ceremonies in a village. I was the only tourist, that was very special.
After the Nat days, I visited two days Salay. The hotel Salay River View is located directly on the Irawaddy and is definitly worth seeing.
After overnight in Bagan I flew back to Yangon. In Yangon I have the possibility to get to know and to appreciate the culinary diversity of street cuisine. Nwe Nwe and Zaw Win Moe led me through the various quarters with the food stalls. Thanks again.
I’m looking forward to the next trip after Covid-19.

Myanmar Damsel Travels & Tours is already for a long time our favourite travel agency. The General Manager Mrs. Nwe Nwe Khine and her team have planed, organized and realized all our 18 Myanmartrips. Important for the agency is very closed contact to its custumers (by email, call, messenger). So they can organize "tayler made" trips arround Myanmar. We tell them our ideas and financial frame, they answer what is possible and safely to do. The agency can organize all: hotel booking, transportation (by plan, bus, train, privat car), boat cruises, good guides (several languages), permits for remote areas. Besides they cooperate with reliable suppliers in all regions off the country. The agency offers high quality tours with good prices. Myanmar Damsel have a great and long time experience in tourism. Thecontact to clients is very friendly, attentive and they take care for every custumer.

Nwe Nwe organized a great trip for us, a family of five with three young kids. We booked 10 nights, some guided tours and transportation in Myanmar. Absolutely everything worked perfectly well and made our trip a fantastic vacation. Communication with Nwe Nwe was always prompt and pleasant. And: It turned out that she got better prices than we would have gotten, so it was not too expensive for us. We would always travel with her support again - a strong recommendation!!

This has been one of the most fantastic trips I have over years. The country has many religious and historical sites and people here are super nice. If you want to experience some very different culture and learn about southeast countries. Myanmar is a destination you shall not miss.
Our tour company, Myanmar Damsel, provided great service. All the staff are very professional and kind. They would go extra effort to make sure they meet all guests' needs and have a great experience. I heard the company from a friend, who also had a very pleasant experience with them. Very easy to work with and they know the best to plan it all for you. Thumps up!

8 nights in Myanmar visiting Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake.
All the guides and drivers were amazing and knowledgeable.
Even with the current situation I never felt unsafe and we did two long car trips during my stay.
They treated me in an extremely friendly way, highly recommend them.

We have made use of the services of Myanmar Damsel this past winter break. I've booked with them even though their quotes were more expensive than most of the other tour operators. After we paid them I had difficulty hearing back from them in s prompt manner and found that it was more of a rigid impersonal business vs someone that is interested in meeting your needs. Although they booked our flights and hot air balloon to our satisfaction we were VERY disapponted that they charged us for an English speaking driver when in both cases the driver could hardly speak any English! Traveling the 7 hours over land from Inle Lake to Bagan was frustrating not being able to ask the driver simple questions. Although he stop a few times for us to take pictures there was no other communication possible. We got the feeling that this company out source their hobs and the client ends up getting the short end of the stick.

Dear Mrs. Annari,
Greeting from Myanmar Damsel Travels & Tours!
First of all, thanks for travelled with us!
And also, thanks for your feedback on your recent experience with our services. We are glad that you are satisfied with premium flight and domestic flight with us however unmet expectations for other services.

You have booked below services with us:
Premium flight with Oriental Balloon: USD 310 per person

Private car from Bagan to Mandalay + Mt Popa visit for 4 persons: USD 155 (USD 38 per person)
Private car from Bagan to Nyaung Shwe to Bagan for 4 persons: USD 185 (USD 46 per person)

We 3 people had a very nice tour in Myanmar organized by Nwe Nwe, the Damsel manager. Our program was very extensive, because we had small time and wanted to see a lot. We were not sure we will see everything but Nwe Nwe planned it in a very correct way and we visited all the places we planned and even more. All the communication by e-mail was very smooth and we always got detailed answers .
Nwe Nwe organized us the tour to the Kayaw and Kayan villages near Loikaw, two days boat trip on Inle lake, trekking near Kalaw, beautiful boat trip from Hpa-An to Mawlamyine and all the needed drivings. The drivings were not easy but we always felt safe because she provided very professional drivers , especially we want to thank to driver Mr. Zayar. She also booked us the flight tickets on domestic flights, some of the hotels and hot-air ballooning over Bagan that was perfect.
We are happy that we choose the Damsel travel agency for our tip and we would like to recommend them for the very professional service

We booked a personalised 12 day family group tour (4* accommodation (with breakfast) including all entrance fees & transport (including 3 internal flights) within Myanmar) for our family of 6 through this Myanmar based travel agency.
They were extremely professional from beginning to end. We organised the tour through a very experienced, responsive and well-spoken Myanmar travel agent, Nwe Nwe, who also followed up with us via email and phone while we were actually on the tour.
Myanmar Damsel were also significantly cheaper than NZ based agencies we could have booked through (the differences varied but one NZ based agency cost twice the price per person!). Good value for money is obviously important since we were paying for 6 people to go on holiday.
We had station tour guides (Saw, Sunshine, Myo & Zaw) at each destination we visited who also spoke excellent English and were very knowledgeable about the areas visited. In addition, they offered great advice on where to eat and where and what to buy in order that what we bought was of both good quality and value.
The drivers supplied by Myanmar Damsel were also excellent. They all drove Toyota Hi-Ace vans with full seat belts provided for everyone along with free bottles of water every day and free wet wipes (to wipe one’s dusty feet after visiting the temples (as you always need to take your shoes off)).
Myanmar Damsel and other Myanmar based travel agencies seem to all have Thai bank accounts because so many countries’ banks (NZ included) will not allow direct payments into Myanmar bank accounts. We nevertheless did initially experience some difficulty paying the deposit for the tour as no NZ bank would let us pay funds to a receiver of the money who had a Myanmar address (even if the account was a Thai bank account)! Nwe Nwe then provided us with the address of one of her Thai-based business associates. This meant we could now pay her the tour deposit and later also the balance of the tour (so we paid in full for the tour before leaving NZ).
I will write more about what a wonderful place the ‘golden land’- Myanmar- is in a later post but will finish here by briefly saying that Myanmar is a fascinating place to visit with its 135 different ethnic groups, each with its own history, culture, language and religious practices. One can see why Myanmar (‘Burma’) was the prize jewel of the British Empire with its incredibly rich resources (jade, gold, silver, ruby, copper and sapphire mines, its fertile soil and riven with rivers).
It is also a very safe place. We never saw any police or soldiers (apart from spotting a few within the Mandalay Palace compound as their barracks take up part of this compound).
The people of Myanmar are friendly, hardworking, tolerant, kind and respectful. We were amazed by the skill and resourcefulness of the Myanmar people. Their craftwork and the diverse ways in which they used their natural resources and products (for example, they did an unbelievable number of things with bamboo) just blew us away.
Myanmar really is a special and fascinating place to visit and we don’t hesitate to strongly recommend it. Myanmar Damsel provided a fantastic way of seeing this country in a cost-effective and thoroughly professional and safe way.
