Top Local Tips for Yangon

Welcoming country This country is very welcoming and we can sense it at the aiport: police and customs are very polite and smiling (not like in Paris airports)...

Vaccinations We spent two weeks in Myanmar/Burma in late Jan.-Feb. 2008. Afterwards we spent a few days in Siem Reap, Cambodia. My husband came down with typhoid during the end of the trip. This can be contracted through unclean food or beverages. We recommend that plans for a trip to these countries include updating your typhoid vaccination. Also, in lower areas of Myanmar malaria is a possibility so check with your doctor prior to a visit.

Bring New $$ Bills Only internationally owned or partnered hotels or businesses in Myanmar accept credit cards. Highly used, torn, written upon or degraded bills will not be accepted. Well in advance of your trip to Myanmar, arrange for your bank to provide you with NEW bills in $1, $5 and $10 denominations.
