Inclusions: 

 

  • Tour package includes all lodging, meals* and access fees to reserves, parks and other birding sites. 

  • Premier Bird Guide: All of our tours use the services of an excellent bird guide, often a well-recognized expert on birding in this area. 

  • Top-Rated Preparation Services: We support your preparation for the trip. We provide information on the birds you will see and all the travel details, including all logistic details (arrival plans, trip itinerary, lodging details and more), information on entry into Myanmar and information on travel health issues, packing information and more. Most of our clients comment that our Trip Participation Guide is the best they have ever seen. 

  • Transport and Airport Transfers: 

    • Local ground transport is included. 

    • We also have a driver or guide pick you up at the airport upon arrival, and we arrange for a transfer back to the airport at the end of the trip.  

  • Acre for Bird Conservation: As part of our efforts to support bird conservation, we purchase in the name of customers (for each booking) at least one acre (but averaging between three and four acres) of wilderness to support bird conservation. As our trip prices are often 20% (and often even a better deal) less than our competition, this does not really cost you more and it is a great way to support bird conservation around the world.

  • Small Group Pricing: All the prices mentioned above are for tour groups of six participants. We are happy to provide pricing for private groups with fewer than six participants (including couples). We will offer a reasonable small group supplement to make tours "go" at three, four and five participants.

 

Possible Additions to Basic Trip Pricing:

 

  • none for this tour. 

 

*Pricing Notes and More Details:

 

  • US dollar Pricing:  The US dollar is accepted in Myanmar by lodges and other tour service providers. The tour price is fixed in US dollars. We do not expect price changes for either of these currencies in 2020.

  • Pricing in British Pounds: The GBP price indicated above is based on the April 10, 2019 exchange rate of 0.775 GBP per US Dollar (and this includes and estimated 1.5% for bank fees). The trip price is fixed in US Dollars, and the final charges for the trip will be based upon the actual exchange rates we pay. 

  • Bank Fees: We do not charge bank fees for wire transfers for clients paying into our accounts in the United States, the United Kingdom and/or Canada; however, we do take into account currency exchange transaction fees (often about 1.5%).

  • Note on Meal Inclusion: Meals include three meals per day during any full day of the trip. No meals are included on the arrival day, as most flights get in after 9 PM. The departure day includes breakfast with the last evening in Myanmar.

  • Note on Beverage Inclusion: Most of our meals are provided by the lodges, and we follow their practices in providing beverages at meal time. Most beverages are your choice and are an additional expense which you pay to the restaurant directly. We provide water at the table for supper. We also provide bottled water during the birding day. 

  • Group Size: Prices are based upon six participants. If the group books at 3, 4 or 5 participants, we will offer a reasonable small group supplement. We are happy to price small custom tours (groups of 2 to 8), as well.

Single Room Supplement: The single supplement for this trip is $460USD (or £330 GBP). Single supplement for extension is $120 USD (or £85 GBP). This is the price we charge for the additional cost of anyone not sharing a room with another birder (and/or a spouse). If you want a single room, please let us know. We are often able to find a roommate for those wanting to share a room with a person of the same sex.

We do present to you clear tipping recommendations if you want to do the tipping yourself. Most of our clients prefer to do the tipping themselves.
