Trip Overview


GeoEx has done it again! This trip to Myanmar was one of the top trips I’ve ever taken. You put together an amazing slice of life in that country. With each part of the trip there was something new—each day it was like opening a box and finding something marvelous inside. Myanmar is the perfect place for Americans to travel: the people were so welcoming, the cuisine was scrumptious, and the accommodations were luxurious, with stellar service everywhere.
