Myanmar is a safe destination to travel, although some usual precautions are worth noting. Since the minor street crime has risen in the cities in reecent years, we sugguest you take taxi at night in stead of walking. You should negotiate fares beforehand with driver. Don’t forget to show driver your hotel’s card if you wish a fair fare.
We advise that you should keep photocopies of important travel documents such passport, air tickets, credit cards in safe place apart from the originals.
We strongly recommend you wear inexpensive jewelry while walking on sidewalk or sightseeing. Your valuables should be in your hotels’ safe boxes if provided.
