“I am thrilled to invite you to join me on our brand new Photo Tour, “Myanmar Discovery” scheduled for October 2018.
Taking in all of Myanmar’s recognisable and well known photographic gems, we will also get off the beaten track for unique adventures away from the main tourist route. Utilising the services of a renowned local guide and photograher Khun Phyo (who’s images appear in this brochure), we have put together a fantastic itinerary which I can’t wait to share with you.
From the fishermen of Inle Lake, U Bien bridge and the temples of Bagan, through to the long neck ladies of Padaung, the rice paddies of Kyaing Tong and the monks of Sagaing, plus much more…
With village visits, historic and cultural sights, local meals and organised photo shoots at special locations, this tour will offer a wide range of photo opportunities and memorable experiences you won’t easily forget”.
Cheers, Chris
