Taking your Game to Myanmar
8 Days Golf Tour to the Golden Land
(Yangon - Bagan - Mandalay - Maymyo - Mandalay - Yangon)


DAY 1 - TOSS THE CELLULAR PHONE!:
YANGONAt the golf courts in myanmar

The beginning of an exiting 8 days golf journey in the land of golden pagodas and golden dreams starts with a tour in the amazingly green city of Yangon.

Welcome dinner at the Sedona Hotel.


DAY 2 - COLONIAL GOLF...:
YANGON
After breakfast on this morning you have plenty of time for some shopping, such as visiting a glass factory producing exquisite hand-blown glasses or wandering around the sprawling Bogyoke Market with its fascinating neighborhood. Wide streets, orderly town planning and neglected public buildings revive visions of a century of British rule, while busy street scenes and shimmering pagodas, bursting through a leafy canopy, hint at the rich local culture. Skyscrapers and glaring neon billboards have yet to overtake the city. Before your golf activities you will pay a visit to the most famous pagoda, the Shwedagon, praying for weird and wonderful shots...After lunch time you start your first Myanma 18 holes in one of the first Burmese golf clubs. Founded by the British in 1909 with G. Balance as the very first captain, this golf course is still the best throughout the country. In those days the Burmese could enter the club only by being caddies…Don't blame it on your "jet-lag" or the caddy, if you are not satisfied with your swing in a tropical country! Dinner at the Green Elephant House, offering delicate Myanmar cuisine.

DAY 3 - READY, SET, PLAY: YANGON - BAGAN
This is the day for early morning birds. By Yangon Air you will arrive at the most extensive archeological site in Asia – Bagan with its 2,000 temples. No need to worry – you will only explore two of the most beautiful temples before you get your body ready to play golf at the Bagan Nyaung Oo Golf Club in the afternoon. Please note, that there will be 3 strokes penalty for hitting one of the pagodas on the 18 holes course, built in 1997 ! In the relaxing garden next to two 11th century-pagodas and the Ayeyarwaddy River stretching out beyond, you may reflect on the result of your handicap...



Golf on the fairways of MyanmarDAY 4 - THE SWING OF THINGS IN THE ARCHEOLOGICAL ZONE:
BAGAN
For the ones who did not get up to now into the "Swing of Things", let's have another try after breakfast. Instead of visiting the remaining 1,998 temples and pagodas, a horse cart will bring you to some villages, visiting small home industries of lacquerware, pottery and cotton weaving. Taking a short cruise to one of the river sand banks with a "sandbank bar" is a surreal experience, to say the least. Surprise dinner at the Thiripyitsaya Sakura Hotel.

DAY 5 - FIGURING OUT THE THREE ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS:
BAGAN - MANDALAY
Before 9 a.m. you will arrive to the city of the last Myanmar kings by Yangon Air.
Don't miss the revered Mahamuni Buddha image and the climb of 1,729 steps to the Mandalay Hill, which will be your physical trainings program for your next round of golf. The sky view will not only show you the 729 stone slabs of the Kuthodaw Pagoda with the entirety of the Buddhist scriptures, but also the Mandalay Yadana Bon Golf Course - latest now you may start training your mental skills. The 36 holes flat course will challenge your talent of enjoying this sport. Don't moan, the dinner will be at the Sedona Hotel.

DAY 6 - DANCING WITH THE TREES: MANDALAY - MAYMYO - MANDALAY
A winding, circuitous route up through the hills will bring you to Maymyo, a former British Hill Station, the only place where the colonial civil servants did not suffer from tropical temperatures. Located in lush green woods, the Maymyo Golf Club, founded in 1941, provides you with a challenging 18 hole course.

Every fairway will teach you "different strokes for different folks"… Try to take dead aim at any tree which is in your way and knock it over with the ball! The award of this exiting day will be a dinner in Mandalay.


DAY 7 - THERE IS ALWAYS THE NEXT HOLE…:
MANDALAY - YANGON
In the morning Yangon Air will bring you back to the modern city of Yangon, leaving tranquility and peace behind you. In the afternoon you will chase your golf ball around the Ngwe Thaw Dar Golf Course, also known as YCDC, where, among other tournaments, the PGA Tournament has taken place.

After this eventful day you deserve a sunset drink at the famous Yangon Sailing Club, which is proud owner of a brass bell donated by Sir Mountbatten.

DAY 8:
YANGON/Departure Day
We hope you enjoyed this golf journey in one of the remote parts of South East Asia. Even though climate, culture and facilites might be different from your home town, at the end of the day, in golf, we all speak the same language - utterances of the insane! MINGALA BAR!
