✈️ Getting there

RGNYangon International Airport
📍 15 km⏱ 35 min🚕 Taxi🚌 Grab🚌 Bus

The cheapest option is the airport shuttle bus to Sule Square (MMK 500 / under €0.25, ~60 min); taxis and Grab cost around $5–7 USD and take 20–35 minutes depending on traffic.

Yangon International is a mid-sized regional hub serving Thai Airways, Singapore Airlines, AirAsia, and Bangkok Airways, with a single main terminal that handles both domestic and international flights — expect it to feel busy but manageable.

Don't Miss

Hidden gems and local experiences in Yangon — beyond the tourist trail.

🕌Shwedagon Pagoda at dawn — the gates open at 4am and the first hour before sunrise belongs almost entirely to local worshippers. The golden stupa changes colour from deep amber to blazing gold as the sun rises; arrive by 5am and you'll have the inner terrace largely to yourself.
🚂Ride the Yangon Circular Railway for a full loop — it costs under $1, takes three hours, and passes through rural townships, morning markets, and suburban stations that no tourist itinerary covers. Board at Yangon Central Station and bring snacks to share with locals.
🍜Eat mohinga (rice noodle fish soup) for breakfast at any street stall in Chinatown around 7am — this is Myanmar's national dish and the best bowls cost almost nothing. Then walk 19th Street in the evening when barbecue smoke fills the air and plastic tables take over the road.
🏛️Join a free colonial architecture walking tour of downtown — the stretch between Sule Pagoda and Strand Hotel contains hundreds of decaying British-era buildings. The Secretariat building (where Aung San was assassinated in 1947) is now open to visitors and genuinely unmissable.
🛶Take the small ferry across to Dala township for $0.25 — the far bank is a world away from the city, with bicycle rickshaws, village markets, and almost no tourists. Go on a weekday morning and rent a bicycle on the other side.
