Yes, it is very safe! You will be picked up from the hotel where you stay very early in the morning before 5 probably, but it is worth it!

Dear Ms. Anantalia, After pagodas are not permitted to climb, watching sunset and sunrise on the boat in the Ayeyarwaddy river is getting popularity among the travelers. Besides, you can do watching sunrise and sunset on the hill in the old Bagan area near the Minnanthu village. It is beautiful and lovely to do it and take photos. Ballooning over Bagan will be available from 15 October. You can buy it via our travel agent with reasonable price.

You can easily rent an E-bike from a hotel, but not recommended if u have a kid with you! Taking a ride in Tuk tuk is an amazing experience too! The hote will surely help you out!

From the Philippines you have to fly to Yangon first than to Nyaung U Airport which is 10km from Old Bagan.

Hi there, Nyaung U Airport is 10km from Old Bagan. Depends how many historical place you plan to visit but between 2 to 3 days to see the major ones. Regards, Gilles

I recommend that you do not travel by train. It is not comfortable and can take 20 hours. We came back from Bagan to Yangon by air conditioned bus an it took 10 hours. If I had to do it again I would fly.

We just came back from Bagan last month, I had horse cart tour for half day, start about 3 pm, saw many temples and seeing the Sunset, then back to hotel, we stay at Bagan Lodge, a full day with a car and tour guide, start about 8:30 am break for lunch in the afternoon, continue to Sunset, then back to hotel, at night there are no light at the temples, you have to walk on dirt roads, it's difficult to walk near temples at night, I think you have to shoot all your pictures before the Sunset, you probably can find someone willing to take you wherever you want to go, it's not expensive, half day horse cart was $18 dollar, half day for a car about $ 40 U.S. dollar, your hotel can arrange all that for you.

There are guides available - we were taken to 2 different observation sites on different nights to see the sunset. One is a large man made tower, go to the open deck on floor 3 - not as packed as top and. I dirty windows to shoot through. The other is a large diet mound with great views of the temples at sunset.

Somewhat true....you can climb some, but not all. The locals know which ones you can climb for the best sunrise/sunset views, just ask.

You should visit Bagan right now.Because there will increase more tourists and be expected to crowd.Earth quake renovation is working now and is going to continue few years.But some places is beginning to preserve to enter because of bad tourists.
