Float Over Myanmar’s Majestic Ancient Templates In A Hot Air Balloon… Like Indiana Jones!

Home / Bucket List / Float Over Myanmar’s Majestic Ancient Templates In A Hot Air Balloon… Like Indiana Jones!

Want a bird’s eye view of ancient times? Up, up and away!

Myanmar’s ancient city of Bagan was the capital of the Pagan Kingdom from the 9th to 13th centuries with over 2000 temples and pagodas spread across the Bagan plain making one of Asia’s richest archaeological sites. Who wouldn’t want to Indian Jones through each one of those temples?! Am I right?

While that would actually take you forever, there’s another even better option where you can see it ALL in one day!

The coolest thing to do in Bagan is take a hot air balloon ride over this majestic site. The view from the bottom and the top is truly breathtaking! Just look at this…

A float over this incredible city costs around US$315 to US$460 per person depending on what season you’re planning to visit. It may sound pricey for bird’s eye view of this historical city, but trust us… it’s worth it! You get free pick up from your hotel and back, free breakfast and other perks, including a certificate for flying, in-flight photos and videos, and exclusive memorabilia, depending on what company you book with.

Still thinking about it? Why don’t you have a look at these while you do.
