Clothing
Packable Rain Jacket
Monsoon season means sudden downpours — this packs down to nothing.

Hotel
River Queen Boutique Hotel, Mandalay
Great riverside location, walking distance to the pier where our cruise departed from.

Sunset Cruise Deck Chairs
Book a cabin on the upper deck if you can — the sunset views over the Irrawaddy are worth it.

Would you book this again?
Absolutely — the river cruise portion was the highlight of our whole Myanmar trip.
What would you do differently?
Pack lighter — we brought way too many clothes for a boat trip with laundry service.
What surprised you most?
How friendly and curious the local villages we stopped at were — completely off the tourist trail.
