It is Min Soe. I have been working as a freelance tour guide in Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) since 2011. Exploring Myanmar is quite unlike any other places you know before. Over 80% of Myanmar is Buddhist. The hospitality and generosity are dominating traits of Myanmar character. Myanmar people are very contented and cheerful even in the face of adversities. This is a nation with a great diversity in landscape, sights, ethnic races and boasts colorful festivals round the year. So please don't hesitate to visit the extraordinary land, scattered with gilded pagodas. That is the reason why I enjoy being a tour guide. I am proud to show you everything that make Myanmar so amazing and unique. I am qualified and eager to inform you the wonders of my country. I am young, active and healthy. My smart appearance, pleasant manner, pleasant voice and positive outlook are some of the qualities that make me a good guide. You will never regret if you travel with me! I can promise you that you will bring home pleasant memories of your holidays from this golden land, Myanmar. You are always safe with me and warmly welcomed to Myanmar. I have successfully completed Tour Guide Training course which was conducted by Tourism Training School under the auspices of the Myanmar Ministry of Hotels and Tourism in 2011. Moreover, I specialized Myanmar Cultural, History, Literature and Art in the Yangon University. I conducted a Liaison Officer Training Course which was conducted by the Ministry of Sport. I am not a driver. I will accompany you in the vehicle. I can arrange transportation, car with a driver for the tour needed it.

Yangon is the biggest and commercial hub of Myanmar with 5 million populations. Walking around the city center is the best way to see realistic lifestyle and 100 years old colonial buildings, colorful Churches, Glittering Pagodas and Independent monuments put up in the center at Mahabandular Park. According to plan, Montgonmery Road, Fraser Road, Strand Road and Dalhousie Road are formed. They built City Hall, High Court, Department stores, Victoria Park, and Train Station, etc. around Rangoon. At that time Yangon City was the most beautiful and cleanest city in Asia. Come join me in this tour and be in awe with Yangon like never before.
After a week of work in Yangon Region, and before returning home, we just had a few hours to 'discover' Yangon... The program prepared for us was perfect... Mr Min Soe was very flexible in adjusting the rpogramaccording to our needs. And his suggestions were always spot on !!! His comments and explanations during the visit were really interesting. We can really recommend his service.
Min Sou was an excellent guide. He told us a lot about the local population and their way of life. In the market in Yangon he talked about the market products, buildings and population. The train journey was also such a highlight of the day. At nightfall we visited the Shwedagon Pagoda. He talked about the Buddhism, the architecture and meaning of all buildings and statues. The next day we had a day trip to Bago. Here he also provided us with details about all the temples and pagoda that he showed us.
Min Soe is an excellent and pleasant guide,. He adapts what he reveals to you according to want you want to do and see. Either he will take you to the main attractions or to the "off beat" places (that noone goes to) to get a feel for the pulse of the city, and in between to some execllent coffee and food places (particulary enjoyed breakfast in the park). Highly recommended
We had two great days, seeing all the important sites. Min Zoe also showed us many localities that gave a great feeling for how the local people conduct their everyday lives. Highly recommended!!!
We had a great 2 days exploring outside of Yangon as we had already been there before. The first day we were in Bago where we saw the pagoda, the palace, the reclining Buddha and the 4 sided Buddha. We had a very nice lunch in a local restaurant. Day 2 we took a ferry to Dalai Island where we took a trishaw ride around the island. Min Soe was a fantastic guide with excellent English and great concern for our comfort and safety. We would highly recommend him!
Min is a lovely man who takes pride in showing his country to visitors. He was flexible as we continually changed the agreed upon itinerary due to the extreme heat the day we toured. We were so grateful the tour included an air conditioned car to transport us from each site.
