Additional details
The short answer is, yes, Myanmar (Burma) is a safe destination for foreign travelers. Not only that, but after nearly 50 years of invisibility from the rest of the world, Myanmar is eager to share its culture, history, cuisine and traditions with guests.
Here’s what to keep in mind to stay safe during your tour to Myanmar:
If you’d like to avoid the monsoon season in Myanmar, travel between November and March. The summer monsoon months are responsible for about 80 percent of the region’s rainfall - and while vitally important to the people and crops of the area, can be less than pleasant for tourists.
Located in a monsoon climate, Myanmar has three seasons - the hot period, the monsoon itself and then the cool, dry winter (when it’s most optimal to visit).
If you do travel to Burma during the monsoon season, your experience will depend on where in the country you travel. The most rain will fall on the coastal zones and beaches. If the Myanmar monsoon season doesn’t put you off, just be flexible, bring appropriate rain gear and waterproof footwear and be prepared for a lot of rain, though not necessarily every day and not all day.
The official language of Burma (Myanmar) is Burmese, although there are about 100 hundred languages spoken throughout the country. Six language families exist in Myanmar, including Sino-Tibetan, Austro-Asiatic, Tai-Kadai, Indo-European, Austronesian and Hmong-Mien.
While Myanmar itself can make an incredible and insightful tour opportunity, if you have the time and the means, consider an extended Southeast Asia vacation. Look for group tours that combine Myanmar with neighboring India, the southern region of China, Vietnam, Laos and Thailand.
