If you've always wanted to see some of the great
temples and cultures of the world like Angkor Wat in Cambodia, the
Shwedagon in Burma (Myanmar), the "plain of temples" in Bagan, or the
famous "one-legged rowers" of Inle Lake but have been putting it off,
there are some good reasons not to.
First and foremost, tourism is beginning to explode
in both countries. It is increasing by 20% per year to Cambodia and 50%
per year to Myanmar. While that is a boon for their economies it is
making it harder to get the kind of "off the beaten path" experience
each year and for Myanmar in particular the limited infrastructure is
beginning to show the strain.
Second, prices are climbing steadily. We start
organizing our trips nearly two years in advance to get you the best
rates we can but the tourist boom and declining dollar mean that each
year costs only go up. So it will never be less expensive than it is now
to visit.
We're heading back to Cambodia & Burma again in
December and still have a couple openings for lucky travelers who want
to join us on our world class itinerary. After that our next trip will
be December, 2014.
Maybe you wish you'd visited Thailand or China 20
years ago before they became tourist meccas. Avoid making the same
mistake and join us for a unique, personalized experience of the local
areas and cultures in these wonderful countries...
