As seen in the press...
Cycling specialist Saddle Skedaddle offers a cycling tour which provides deep insights into the culture. A 14-day Myanmar Cycling expedition meanders through the patchwork rice fields and swaying bamboo forests of Shan, the incense-scented cityscapes of both Yangon and Mandalay, and the goosebump-inducing temples of Bagan. But what will stick with you longest is the warm and profoundly spiritual people you’ll encounter along the way.
