Myanmar Burma travel agent
I need to make a 5 day tour for a group of approximately 10 twenty year olds who will be on a cruise ship that docks in Yagon in late February. They would want a private tour guide that would take them to a few areas and speaks excellent english and can relate well to 21 year olds. They do have a small budget…4 star hotels would be fine.
Can anyone recommend a travel company/ tour company/ tour guide?
Thank you.

You might want to do some research to see how realistic this plan is. 4 star hotels are not cheap in Myanmar, and to get to the best sites, the group will need to fly to either Bagan or Lake Inle.
There are lots of reputable agents in Yangon. I'd get ideas from at least two agents. Myanmar Shalom and Shan Yoma are two others that have been well reviewed.
Also, note that all will need a visa arranged in advance. It is least expensive to get the visa in your own country before departure, but it is possible to get a pre-arranged visa (which the agencies refer to as a visa on arrival) from any travel agency.

As far as I know, it is surely impossible to get the 4 star hotels with only a small budget. Remember that the hotels in Burma are expensive. I used Burma Senses for my trip last month and their services were excellent and professional. Maybe they can help you with.

We used One Stop Mynamar and arranged everything with Kyaw. We were a group of 5 20 year olds. He was amazing…got great hotels, transfers to airport, perfect bike tour in Bagan and sunset cruise in Bagan. I highly recommend this company and they are very reasonably priced.
Kyaw also arranged an entire tour for my friends who were a group of 10 ...Yangon, Bagan and Inle Lake. He arranged everything from tour guides, hotels, flights, transfers etc. Amazing.
A real gem. http://onestop-myanmar.com
