February Overview
Things continue to improve as you enter February with the coming two months arguably the best time of the year to visit Burma. The downside to the great weather is of course the higher visitor numbers and, whilst these are anything but excessive, the limited choice of hotels in some key destinations means that it’s important to book early to avoid disappointment.
With no rain expected throughout the month and the chilly winter feel in the highlands now a thing of the past (early mornings still have a bit of a chill in places), you can expect premium travelling conditions across the country.
