Hi,
We are thinking to have a tour to Mynmar, Yangon, during 2013 Chinese New Year period. Preferrable from 8/2 until 13/2. We have not confirm the number of people. May be from 5 to 10 persons. Could you quote me your best price including air tickets (from Singapore to Yangon), accomodation, transports, and any other feature that is necessary. 4 to 5 days tour.
Regards,
Florence

Dec 19, 2012

Hi
I thank you for your email. I need specific information from you to give you a correct quote. This includes:
1. Dates of reaching and leaving Yangon
2. No. of people in the group
3. How many rooms?
4. Twin beds, single beds?
5. 3-star hotels or others
6. Places you want to visit. Refer to
www.designtravelpl.com for various packages and submit your own after discussion with your group travellers.
7. English-speaking guide or no guide?

In this way, there will be no delays in quotation. Hotel accommodation is difficult to get due to an increase in tourism this year and the managers don't give various quotations on one tour when these requirements keep changing (e.g. no. of persons in the group keeps changing), since they have more customers than before. Therefore prospective travellers have to decide what they want to do to save time.

Pl understand from the overworked Myanmar manager's point of view and let me have your specific requirments as soon as possible. Best wishes.

EMAIL REPLY FROM DESIGN TRAVEL
Dec 12, 2012

Hello

I am David Sing from Design Travel. I can quote and book the Jan 1-14 2013 trip but you have to decide how many days you want to stay in a place or beach. This will save time as what I propose is usually not what the prospect wants. Some prefer 3 nights at Nagpali beach (sun, sea) or 4 nights at Inle Lake as it is quite a romantic area, others prefer 3 nights at Bagan which is a historical area. Some wants trekking at Inle Lake + Kalaw. Others don't want.

Pl let me know your requirements. Best wishes.

I am David from Design Travel. We spoke. As my Myanmar travel agent partner is not so good in English, due to the history of discouraging the learning of English language from 1962, please state correctly your proposed itinerary e.g.

the dates, times, your reach Yangon and when you want to go to Mandalay. Also let us know double room, twin beds, single bed and the names of the 2 hotels you want to stay. In this way, it is much easier to quote.

Best wishes.

138. Myanmar's domestic flights - Air Mandalay



Hi
PURCHASE OF DOMESTIC FLIGHT TICKETS

I am clarifying with my Myanmar travel agent to get the air tickets and make sure they are confirmed as Myanmar's domestic air booking is not as advanced as in developing countries where e-tickets are issued promptly. She has replied the following:


20 Feb, Yangon- Mandalay 6T 807 11:45 - 13:10     3 pax ( confrimed)
21 Feb, Mandalay - Bagan 6T 502 15:50 - 16:20     3 pax ( confirmed)
23 Feb, Bagan - Heho        6T 451 12:00  - 13:00     3 pax ( confirmed)
25 Feb, Heho - Yangon       YJ 892  09:20 - 10:30     3 pax ( confirmed)

Tickets from Air Mandalay purchased and posted to Singapore office. Air Bagan has put us on the waiting list but Air Mandalay can confirm. Therefore, it is best to get confirmed tickets so that his friends in the US can make travel arrangements and visa early as well.

Hi

Thank you for your email.
Please let me know if the following itinerary is OK with you before I get the financial quotations for you. 4-star hotels are not available now as Dec is the peak tourist season and there is a shortage of 4-star hotels built due to the past years when the US sanctions were in place.  3-star hotels are the ones available now and usually they are clean and suitable for tourists. However I will try to get the 4-star hotel for you if possible. The itinerary is as follows:

One person. 4-star hotel if possible

I am David Sing from Design Travel.

Thank you for your email. Pl provide me your budget, no. of rooms and the quality of hotel (3 or 4-star) you would like. This is because travel is customised and costs more than packaged tours. As time is short, it will be more efficient to know your budget.

Dec 26   Yangon
Dec 27   Domestic flight from Yangon to Inle Lake in the morning.
Dec 28   Inle Lake and surrounding towns. Trekking at Kalaw.
Dec 29   Domestic flight from Inle to Mandalay
Dec 30   Mandalay
Dec 31   Mandalay by car to Pyin Oo Lwin, British military colonial hill resort
Dec 31   Pywin Oo Lwin & trekking

Hi Grace

Hotels are full in this December peak tourist season and the 4-star hotels are fully booked. I can't confirm which 3-star hotel will be booked as a booking fee of 50% is needed before the hotel will reserve the rooms. As prospects cancel at the last minute (I have two such cases now), I don't book in anticipation of a closed deal since I will have to pay the cancellation fees. Hotels will be booked once full payment is made.

 During the US sanctions of the past years, very few 4- or 5-star hotels were built and now, there is a great shortage of such class in Myanmar. 3-star hotels do not have the gym and pool but they are usually decent and clean.

The following is the quotation.

26 Dec, Arrival Yangon
27 Dec, Yangon- Heho- Inle ( Flight)
28 Dec, Inle - Kalaw ( trekking)
29 Dec, Kalaw - Heho- Mandalay
30 Dec,Mandalay sightseeing
31 Dec,Mandalay - Pyin Oo Lwin - Mandalay
1 Jan,Mandalay - Bagan ( flight)
2 Jan,Bagan sightseeing
3 Jan,Bagan - Yangon ( flight)
4 Jan, Departure

The tour price will be 1578 USD/pax ( based on 4 pax)

Hotel used
3 star hotel use( due to tight occupancy we are not sure which hotel to get and we will try any of the available same class hotel at each destination)

Inclusion
  
   -    All hotel accommodation with breakfast.
   -    All transfer and sightseeing with private A/C Car.
   -    Domestic flight fare
   -    Entrance fee and Zone fee.
   -    English Station Guide.

   -    Trekking fee in Kalaw
