Top 5 Best Myanmar Cycling Routes

I still remember vividly about my first day dropping myself on a bike and exploring Myanmar, my beloved country from the popular attractions to its remotest ones. And it was truly a big motivation for me to become a travel specialist like I am now. Honestly, not all the routes are pleasant, both you and I know clearly that our biking adventure can never be easy like when we travel on a car. It’s a journey for intrepid people as you will sweat a lot! But why Myanmar cycling tours are still an experience that you should try at least once in your lifetime? That’s because the bike will take you to any paths of Myanmar, the country which has been isolated to the outside world for decades.  Myanmar is where you can expect to discover more than you ever think of! From seeing the untouched landscape, listen to the wind swaying, to go deep to the tranquil village when you will have a chance to meet and make friend with the friendly locals, and many more. That’s the reason why I recommend you, my dear customers, to have such a meaningful moment like I did. Please spend your time to get a glimpse at top 5 of the best cycling routes in Myanmar that you should put into your itinerary to have a memorable Myanmar cycling tour.
