Myanmar driver and guide

i have used Kyaw Naing as my personal driver and guide in Myanmar. Many of you are often looking for a driver/guide and I would highly suggest that you contact him.

His English is excellent and he really knows all the ins and outs of his country. His van is very comfortable, way more comfortable than the very old Toyota he used in the early tourist days when we first used him.

His website is: www.myanmar-travelguide.asia

That's great, Bob - thank you. We'll be going back to Myanmar soon and will reach out to him to see if he's available.

Bob, isn't this the guy you used more than a decade ago when you went to Yangon? Does he drive/guide outside of Yangon?

Bob- you are not getting off that easy. Many on this forum come to expect a trip report indeed some cannot do without them! Now lets not have any more of this talk and get back to the trip reports!

Bob, I'd love to hear more too.
We'll be in Burma for 6 days in July, probably just Yangon, somewhere in Inle, and Bagan if we can fit it in.

Where did Kyaw Naing take you in Yangon?
