I’m a Singapore citizen, will I be able to enter Myanmar? It’s visa free for my passport but I heard they are having some civil issues at the moment, so want to be sure that I can actually visit and that this tour will take me inside Myanmar if I book. Let me know, thanks.? Sartaj - 1 year ago

Unfortunately, the tour described is not available anymore. It is currently not possible to enter Myanmar.
Regarding the long-tailed boat to Dao Sao village, it is also not available.
After formalities, crossing the Sai River into Tha Chilek Town, a Myanmar border town, and witnessing local Burmese life in a nearby village is not possible either.
The motor-tricycle ride to explore Tha Chilek with its Shan-style temple, city sightseeing through lanes and side streets, and visiting the local market famous for products from Southern China, Laos, and Myanmar is no longer available and cannot be done.
