Detailed itinerary

Start your evening of fun with a convenient hotel pick-up service. In the lobby of your accommodation, your driver will be waiting to meet you. Once you have hopped aboard your private vehicle and settled in, your driver will take you on a short, scenic drive to the Bagan Viewing Tower - officially known as Nann Myint. The 196-foot-tall (60-meter) structure, the name of which translates to 'high palace,' is a popular platform from which to gaze over the archeological wonders of Old Bagan, offering spectacular panoramic views unique to this area.

Once you have arrived at the Viewing Tower, the staff will offer you a warm welcome before taking you to your seat in the dining room outdoors. Once you are settled in, you have the choice of four types of mouthwatering three-course meals. You can choose from a menu of Myanmar, Chinese, Thai, or European cuisine. As your delicious food is served to you, you can watch the sun slip past the horizon and spread its light over the distant Ayeryarwady river. You'll have 360-degree views of temples dating back centuries from this vantage point. Your 3-hour experience concludes with a return transfer to your hotel.
