About this activity
Your private tour begins with a pickup from your hotel in Mandalay by your personal guide and driver. You will be driven to the boat jetty to embark on a 1-hour boat ride on the Irrawaddy River.
Journey upriver to Ancient Mingun, an archaeological site that is elevated on the western bank of the Irrawaddy River. Upon your arrival, start with a visit to the Mingun Bell, an impressive 90-ton (81,000-kg) bronze bell that was commissioned by King Bodawpaya in 1808. After admiring the world's largest intact bell, continue to the Hsinbyume Paya to see the striking sight of the Mingun Paya, a huge, unfinished stupa (religious structure). Had it been completed, it would have been the world's largest temple.
After your guided visit, continue the scenic river cruise downstream along the Irrawaddy River back to Mandalay, passing picturesque villages along the way. Your half-day tour ends with drop-off at your hotel in Mandalay.
