Myanmar Charity Cycling/Burma Charity Challenge
Since 1999, we have been operating many charity cycling tours in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Myanmar for over 50 charity organizers in U.K, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong and other part of Europe. We carefully design the cycling and trekking routes to be safe and 70 to 80% of our cycling routes are off roads and back roads. We follow our philisophy to take peole to see REAL countries. We offer competitive price and our professional team work hard to ensure the charity event is one of the best in Southeast Asia. We have the best knowledge of the region and wherever we take our charity challenge to, we maintain our good standard of operation starting from the landing procedure, bike fitting, the quality of the bikes, the border crossing, the food, the accommodation.
