Having travelled to Myanmar several times for both work and pleasure, I am happy to recommend Thein Than Aung as a good choice of guide for any new, or returning visitor.

He is a true gentleman, unfailingly polite and respectful, and his demeanour is calm and unassuming. This is a big positive for me as I like tour guides that are informative and engaging, but don't try to dominate and control the experience too much.

Aung is of course very knowledgeable about Myanmar; he enjoys discussing the issues that face his nation, and is able to talk about them in a sensitive but unguarded way. I have known Aung for over three years, and have seen that he is very capable and helpful when it comes to arranging transport and accommodation logistics. He is always reliable, punctual, and will have no problem explaining how much things cost, and helping tourists to get the right price for the services that they need.

I would not hesitate to recommend Aung to any of my family or friends, because he is capable of making any trip to Myanmar easier to organize, and he is also just great company!
