I just wanted to let you know that we had a very enjoyable experience in Myanmar. Thank you for all the arrangements you made.
Sincerely,
Dr Pieter
Ms. Olin & Ms. Nelson
Our guide, Kenneth was well informed and had the ability to show us beautiful places at the perfect time of day and away from the general crowds of people one so often comes in contact with at special sites. He was well organized and listened to our special requests. His ability to work with the hotel as well as other service people was very impressive. We look forward to visiting Myanmar again and using Exotissimo.Guide: Mr. KennethMs. Olin & Ms. Nelson

Just a quick email to thank you for all your help in making my experience and trip to Myanmar a most incredible and wonderful journey! From the start of dealing with you until the very end of good-byes with Toe, our glimpse and experience in the wonderful hospitality, beautiful views of the landscapes, and your people were nothing short of stupendous! It truly was and is one of the most captivating countries that has touched my heart and soul up to this point in my life. We couldn't have asked for a better guide, mum and introduction to Burmese people and culture as was our experience with Toe, our first and last guide. She is a most wonderful person and the beauty that radiates from your country can certainly be found within her. Naing Tun in Bagan made our trip so extra special, that we are both still speaking about the experience today, between ourselves and with all our friends and family. He managed to take the simplest of experiences and make it so extra special that we will never be able to forget the most soulful part of our trip. Sai in Innle Lake was like a professor, explaining the minutest of details in such perfect comprehension. He was a quiet beacon that was well tuned into our preferences. You are truly blessed with a most amazing country and people and I am really glad that I was able to be a part of it, although for a short while. Perhaps one day in the not so distant future I will return. Many thanks for all your assistance once again. Melissa

I am back from Myanmar. We had a really great trip and enjoyed it a lot. Compliments for a perfect organisation, (most of the time) good and friendly drivers and especially the Thazin Garden Hotel in Bagan was an excellent choice! A beautiful setting, nice rooms and service, good restaurant...Hopefully there will be another possibility to see more of the country.Tuyet, thanks again and a lot for your assistance, see youChristiane

We all felt that Kyaw went beyond what we would consider excellent service. We have had many guides in many countries and he is among the best. We will use/recommend both EXOTISSIMO and Kyaw Moe Thun again.Guide: Mr. Kyaw Moe ThunDavid Neenan & friends

The trip exceeded our expectations. Myanmar is a hidden gem. Ohnmar is a pleasure to be with. Her English is excellent; she is very knowledgeable and made us feel that she really enjoyed being our guide.Guide: Ms. Ohnmar IIMr & Mrs June

We left Myanmar yesterday and are now back in Hong Kong and we wanted to say to you that we had a wonderful trip to Myanmar. Everything went extremely well and we enjoyed the four guides very much as well as the drivers! The hotels and excursions were all excellent and the people we met were some of the nicest that we have ever met across the world.
Thank you for arranging this for us.
We wish the people of Myanmar a happy future.
Regards
Suzanne and Brian

Mr. RICHTER
Shine has given us an amazing taste of Myanmar. His knowledge and explanations have been wonderful. He has accommodated our needs in every way with a smile. He is a polite, educated member of your team who should be valued. We have experienced Exotissimo in Vietnam + Cambodia and honestly have to say that Shine has been the best guide we ever had. The country here is wonderful + full of interesting history.Guide: Mr. ShineMr. RICHTER & family

We wish to thank the people at Exotissimo who helped make our trip to Myanmar such an enjoyable one. Tin was our most capable and excellent guide, but we also recognise that people in the office provided the framework and shaped our tour. We welcomed the opportunity to meet Burmese people and learn a little about the cultural life of Myanmar.

Wir sind seit vorgestern wieder da - und es war einfach super!
Alles hat bestens geklappt, Exitissimo hat alles profihaft durchorganisiert!
Es wurde auch an viele Kleinigkeiten gedacht, wie z.B. Reinigungstücher im Auto (wegen der diversen Barfuß-besichtigungen), Postkarten mit Briefmarken als "Erstausstattung" etc. , sodaß wir uns wirklich um nichts kümmern mußten!
Sehr gut gefallen hat uns auch, daß uns ein Mitarbeiter von Exotissimo erwartet hat (obwohl wir an diesem Tag keine Reiseleitung hatten), der in 5 Minuten Paßkontrolle u. Visum für uns erledigt hatte! In Frankfurt bei Thai Airways u. in Bangkok konnte man mit dem Visum on arrival nichts anfangen u. wir hatten etliches Kopfzerbrechen bzw. Telefonanrufe etc. verursacht!
Die Hotels u. angefahrenen Restaurants waren alle in Ordnung bzw. schön, einzig das Mandalay Swan war eine etwas düstere, veraltete Anlage. Dafür waren Essen u. Silvesterfeier ok.
Fazit: wir sind rundum zufrieden! Und Burma ist ein einzigartiges Ziel!
Viele Grüße und ein Erinnerungsphoto der phantastischen Ballonfahrt über Bagan

I just wanted to let you know that the trip was wonderful. We failed to return your evaluation forms, but I will write you more fully in a few days when our guests have left. In the meantime, I just wanted you to know that each guide was excellent, the hotels were excellent -- everything was excellent -- and that we were charmed by your country.More later.Thank you.susan

Now that we're back at work, I would like to express my sincere thanks for all your hard work. Our trip was absolutely smooth, and there were no problems at all!All our guides were brilliant, and we would recommend them to anyone coming to Myanmar, and we would definitely request them again if we returned. We would definitely like to come back to Myanmar sometime, and see some more of your beautiful country. We were constantly amazed by how clean everything was, and how friendly everyone was. The food was delicious, and the hotels were fantastic. I have travelled a lot, and can say the Myanmar has to be one of my favourite destinations now.Thank you again for your help.Rebecca Hewitt.

Dear Kay Zin Tar, You made a wonderful Burma trip for me in Dec.-Jan. with my friends the Lanyons....I will never forget how you were able to get us into Bagan hotel on the river for New Year's, which was very magical.Now I was wondering if you could find out some information about the meditation-yoga program that is being offered at that wonderful hotel on the hill at Mt. Popa. We spoke with the owner who happened to be there when we had lunch and he said he was planning something like that for summer, perhaps August?? I am hoping the dates will be available now. Thank you.
Stephen G.
We are all home now after a wonderful 17 days traveling throughout your part of the world.
I just want to thank you for putting together a most memorable trip. We are thrilled that we got to see Myanmar and hope that the political situation is soon straightened out for the good of the people. We also loved Vietnam and Cambodia. The planes were right on time and your guides met us at each airport and were most knowledgeable and responsive to our every need.
We hope you are feely better and are sorry we did not have a chance to thank you in person.
Happy New Year.
Stephen G.

I had meant to write to you much earlier but had hit the ground running - and kept on running - ever since our return to New York. I just wanted to say that we all very much enjoyed our trip to Myanmar! What a beautiful country and gracious people! Should any future prospective clients request a referral from your former client's, you should feel free to send them my email address.Thanks again for your assistance in putting together such a great trip for us.All best regards,Luke G. Gardner

Today is the first working day but most of the time I tell my colleagues about our vacation in Myanmar!
Thank you very much for the excellent and beautiful trip, unforgettable impressions and festive moods!
Best wishes - Julia
Ravneet & Jey
Yes we are back and we enjoyed ourselves so much that we wished we had planned a longer stay in Myanmar. Thank you for organising the tour. It was very well planned. We saw and experienced a lot and especially liked the fact that it was so flexible.The tour guides and the drivers both in Yangon and Bagan were all very pleasant and polite and we enjoyed their company. Nyein Nyein was especially wonderful and we felt more like her guests than her clients. Please let her know that we already miss her.Ce zu bah,Ravneet & Jey
