Bagan's ancient temples was fascinating. We appreciated the early morning start for Bagan sunrise. It's so impressive. Aung was our guide in Bagan and we realy loved him. He was knowledgeable, caring & dedicated to his jobs. For each site we visited, he told us an interesting story. We also visited some families where we could talk and understand about their cultures. The country was not stable and we could not visite some sites we wanted. But we were all very happy to explore this very mysterious country. Highly recommend Soe Soe for all things she had done for us.read less
