Sightseeing in Hpa An

Tuk tuk, private car, motorbike are available for sightseeing.

Motorbike is not a recommended option, just for the adventure travelers. Please be aware that there is no good enough insurance in Myanmar. And we do not know rental motorbikes are legally registered or not. If nothing happens, nothing happens. 

In the dry and cold seasons, tuk tuk is a good option for new explorers but in raining season, Hpa An is having very heavy rain. Especially if you are going to the rough road for caves and mountains, it’s not a good option. 

Most of the time private car is more comfortable and safe for going to rough roads and downtown, even for caves and mountains. If somebody hires a private car from Yangon, additional sightseeing cost is already included.

That’s one of the reasons travelers use private cars for this sector.
