For the past 60 years, travel to this undiscovered land has been heavily restricted. Recognizing the need for change, the political landscape has thankfully eased considerably and Myanmar's doors and gateways have recently been opened, allowing generations of stories to be told and heard. Largely uninfluenced by modernization, the country formally known as Burma still exudes its now fading British colonial heritage as it complements its predominantly Buddhist culture. Here, expect locals to greet you with warmth, grace and curiosity, as they wish to know exactly what you make of their unknown world. Gone are the sanctions of yesteryear as travellers are not just welcomed but now openly encouraged to explore. For the lovers of food, watch as the majestic flavours of China and India merge together to create cuisine unlike anything you've ever tasted before. As age-old temples, stupas, monuments and pagodas glow fiercely bright against the backdrops of rolling lush forestry, enjoy the relaxed pace of life and culture here in this unharmed haven. Home to some of the most wondrous sights imaginable, there's simply no better time and way to experience the magic of South-East Asia of twenty years ago, than on a boutique river cruise with APT. Taking you in complete style, comfort and safety along the Irrawaddy River, APT's new river ship, the RV SamaTha, is the most luxurious vessel to grace the waters of this mighty river. Accommodating a maximum of 60 guests, you'll want for nothing on this in-depth discover guaranteed to captivate you. Join us for an unforgettable adventure through this once-forgotten land, before the rest of the world catches on... Warm Regards, Geoff McGeary OAM APT Company Owner Rob, Geoff and Lou McGeary
