It is the gem capital of Myanmar and was recently opened to foreign travelers. Desna Safaris is offering a 14 days /13 nights Private Luxury Gem Tour, Myanmar’s Hidden Treasures, featuring Mogok as one of the highlights.

"Myanmar is truly an extraordinary land where the traditional ways have endured and remain undiscovered by tourists and unspoiled by development."

“Mogok is a fascinating place with people of different ethnic backgrounds, deep history and expansive natural resources that provide travelers an experience unlike any other,” says Armand Bachaspatimayum, Desna Safaris founder and CEO. “This area is considered to be one of the most scenic areas in Myanmar. For centuries, gems such as rubies and sapphires have been easily found in abundance in Mogok. The tour takes travelers through stunning landscapes of river, valleys, jungles, Buddhist temples and villages in Myanmar.”

“Myanmar is truly an extraordinary land where the traditional ways have endured and remain undiscovered by tourists and unspoiled by development,” adds Bachaspatimayum. “Our private luxury tour allows visitors to immerse themselves in this culturally varied and vibrant indigenous society. The people of Myanmar are very friendly and welcoming to visitors.”
