This half day tour discovering Mandalay by bike gives you a great chance to explore the beauty of Myanmar’s nature and people. Joining in this tour, you can see the way of the simple daily life of the local people, interact and make friend with them as well as admire these magnificent sceneries that you have never expected before.

You will be picked up at your hotel with your bikes and, after adjusting your bikes and helmets, it is high time to start pedaling covering about 20-30 kilometers (depending on starting point and optional uphill climb)
Next, you will set off this morning for an amazing ride through the eastern outskirts of Mandalay.

On the first 4-6 kilometers, you will get out of the city, leaving behind the concrete buildings and moving on to a tranquil road which is surrounded by green paddy fields and dotted with small villages.

Then, you can make your first stop at a morning market where you can find a wide variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, local snacks and other items for sale. Here, you can have a great chance to walk around, take impressive photos as well as interact and make friend with the hospitable vendors.

Next, you will continue your trip toward the east to get access to the base of Yankin Hill, a popular pilgrimage spot for the locals where you can see many carved figures of fishes and turn south to visit many monasteries and temples on the sides.

Then, you can proceed to the Yeh Dagon Hill, where you can enjoy meditation retreats. If you are strong enough, take in a short 6km loop to go up the hilly switchbacks to admire these magnificent views.

Then, from here you will turn back toward town on another road and ride through more fields of sugarcane, sunflowers, beans and sometimes rice. You should not forget to make a stop at a small village to know how to make traditional paper fans before making your way back to the city.

Finally, you will reach your hotel at midday and say goodbye to your guide
