Best Time to Visit

Discover Myanmar's diverse seasons and their unique travel charms.

If you enjoy cooler weather, the cool and dry season (November to February) is the best time to visit Myanmar. During this period, the skies are clear with cool breeze in the air, perfect for outdoor activities. It is the best time to visit ancient temples and other sightseeing places. Though the dry season is ideal time to visit, it is peak season and overcrowded. So, make your plans accordingly.

On the other hand, if you don't mind occasional showers, rainy season (June to October) is worth visiting. This period is when the landscapes are lush green with fewer travellers. It is the perfect time to immerse yourself in tranquility of mother nature.  

The summer (March to May) is the perfect time to experience the mountainous regions. Since the temperatures are high, it is the best time to explore the peaks like Shan Hills. If you can tolerate the heat, then there is nothing more relaxing than spending some beautiful moments on the beach. Myanmar is home to some stunning beaches with pristine white sands and crystal clear waters. While on the beach you can also enjoy water sports and indulge in some mouthwatering local dishes.

Working with Allan is absolutely a dream. He is one of the most responsive people I’ve had the pleasure of working with and his attention to detail is unmatched. I truly wish I could just use him for every single trip I need to book.Liz Poore

Kimberly Brown from Goway Travel made my trip to Australia & New Zealand a very memorable and remarkable experience. Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David Klein

We had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy

Elise created a fantastic trip to South Africa. Our experience could not have been better. Thank You so Much!!Dave McVay

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

We have used Goway Travel for previous trips and have been very happy with their excellent service. Our last trip to New Zealand and Australia was no exception. Our agent, Lori Mazzono, got tuned into the sort of trip we were hoping to have immediately. The various booking she provided were, without exception, exceptional and exactly what we envisioned, We really don't think we would have changed anything. tBruce Belshaw
