Get around in Mandalay by Taxi

See the locations on Mandalay Myanmar Google Map

From the Airport to the hotel: This takes around an hour. The company Sein Myanmar offers a shared taxi service for 4000 Kyat for one person. Just go to their desk on the way out of the arrival hall. The normal taxi fare is 15000 Kyat for one person, also avaiable at the desk. Some drivers try to lure you to their cars after you have clamed your baggage. Better go to the desk, pay there and get your receipt.

From Mandalay to Inwa and Amapura: Some drivers offers half day tours for 20 US Dollars according to reports of travellers. Others drive for 35000 Kyat.

We recommend the Taxi Service by Mr. Thi Ha, phone 09-43011581. He's an experienced English speaking guide.
