I was wondering what the distance/time is from the cruise ship port for Yangon, Myanmar, to the city center. We are there for 3days/2nights on the Oceania Riviera in January 2024. I asked my TA for suggested tours and the company she deals with has us staying in the city at the Lotte Hotel and Resort (which looks very nice indeed) and doing tours of the city from the hotel. I am asking this question because I was wondering if it is worth the cost of a hotel instead of going back to the ship e
Yes, I did check with the US State Department and they are also recommending what you say. Backpackers are a different breed from me and I admire what they do. But sometimes they can get themselves killed for being stupid, like crossing into Afghanistan or someplace like that.
I will reach out to you if Oceania makes a decision. I copied and pasted your earlier post to our roll call just as an FYI. Not sure if anyone else looks at this particular board.
Thanks and s
