Off course, Myanmar Border Cross Tour is a division of Panoramic Myanmar Travels & Tours Company Limited which is legally and officially government registered company , founded in 2003 .

It is safe to drive in Myanmar but driving in Myanmar is a challenging and undertaking compared to driving in well developed country like Europe . Local driving standards are poor because many drivers in countryside are not trained and do not adhere to normal road rules. Local vehicles are not well maintained, may have bald tyre and many would not be roadworthy by the standards of your own country. Roads in some remote areas of country often are potholed, broken up or are only gravel and dirt.

Drivers must be a minimum of 21 years of age. We expect you to be a confident and competent driver, with plenty of driving experience. You should normally have held your driver’s license for a minimum of two years. Please also note that all of our expeditions may include sections of gravel or dirt roads .We never travel off road; it is simply that there may be some sections where the road is not paved.
