About this activity
Bypass the hotel breakfast and we'll take you to the downtown spots where locals kick start their day with mohinga or soft peas scooped up with freshly baked nan breads and spiced potato pastries. Strolling down historical streets we'll negotiate our way through two very different market places while dropping in at an old-school tea-shop to try locally grown tea and snacks. Take in all the sights and tastes as we tuck into all the must try local dishes surrounding Sule Pagoda, beautiful Bogalayzay St. and beyond.
Get your day started the local way and explore the city's stunning neighborhoods brimming with local vendors and fuel yourself for the rest of your day's sightseeing.
Some Tour Highlights
•
Traditional tea shop which stood through decades of military rule and still serving British style teacakes and pastries with a Myanmar twist

Two bustling street markets with all sorts of exotic fruits, veg, fish mongers and butchers plus market snacks to taste along the way. Here we can also show you the raw ingredients that make the dishes we taste on the tour
•
No other country in the world makes salads like Myanmar! Pickled tea leaf with crunchy fried beans and seeds, ginger and nutty tomato salads are among those you simply must try
•
The architecture of St Mary's Cathedral, The Secretariat and the colonial side-streets we stroll along are a feast for the eyes
•
Stop in at a vintage Burmese restaurant filled with antiques, old photos and art work

I enjoyed this tour very much! Mimi was a wonderful guide who took me to several great breakfast places and was a lot of fun to talk to. The food was delicious (and plenty!). Absolutely recommended!
