Tour Code: YDT_6

Discover Yangon Outskirt Dala

Details

WHAT TO EXPECT ~

Pick up from your hotel and drive to Pansodan Jetty. Cross Yangon River by local ferry (approximately 10 minutes). Upon arrival on the other side, trishaw drivers will take you on country roads through local villages to a monastic school. Here you can meet the children and talk to the teachers (with help of your guide). The head monk does all he can with very limited funds to create a good life for the children, and if you care to make a donation while you are here it will be welcomed for the purchase of school books, blankets, rice, clothing etc. The children are delighted to meet foreigners, and these encounters can be very rewarding for visitors.

Next visit is to Chu Chu Workshop; you will see how the plastic bags from the garbage are turned into useful products. Chu Chu members gather plastic bags from the dumping sites and markets in Yangon and work to develop new designs that meet the local and international market demand. On your way back to the ferry, enjoy the views of real local rural life – nothing like the busy streets of Yangon on the other side of the river. The tour ends with a safe trip back to your hotel.
