Burma – discover the undiscovered

Burma – a place like no otherSurely nowhere else in the world can be so far removed from the western world as Burma. Whilst we travel in high-speed trains and cars, many of the people of Burma still use a horse and cart to get around. Mobile phones? Leave them on board – they won’t work here. Discover a place where Holy Men are ‘the celebrities’ and clothing is both traditional and verging on surreal to you or I – the reality is that much of the country has changed very little since British colonial times. Now is your chance to escape the daily hustle and bustle of our daily lives and experience somewhere completely, incomprehensibly different.

Keep your camera at the readyBurma conjures up images of the archetypal Asian jungle. Picture steaming green forests, prowled by leopards, orangutans and all manor of spectacular creatures. Alive with the trumpeting of elephants, the rainforests include such a multiplicity of species that new discoveries are being found almost daily! The scenery is almost as diverse as the flora and fauna itself

– the snow-capped Himalayan Mountains crown the north, whilst aquamarine coastal waters and coral reefs kiss the white sand beaches of the south.

Time is running outNow is undoubtedly the time to visit Burma. Though much of the unspoilt natural beauty and traditional values remain, things are changing (quickly) and it is only a matter of time before the west ‘discovers’ and starts to erode the undoubted natural bounty that the country boasts. So discover undiscovered Burma, it may be now or never.

Discover the undiscovered, prepare to be unprepared – Burma (or the Republic of the Union of Myanmar as it’s officially known) is unlike anywhere else on planet Earth. Bordered by China, Thailand, India, Laos and Bangladesh, it is one of the last great undiscovered natural treasures in the world and now is the time to discover this remarkable region, before it is too late.

“This is Burma”, said Rudyard Kipling. “It is quite unlike any place you know about.” He hit the nail on the head.

Believe us when we say that there is no better way to experience this than from the deck of a cruise ship. The region of Burma defies belief – virgin jungles, ancient temples and wildlife found nowhere else on the planet – it really does have to be seen to be believed.
