Take this cruise through Myanmar, and a pal goes for half-price
Myanmar, formerly Burma, was closed to Westerners for decades until the country started opening to tourists in 2011. One way to explore it is to take a cruise on the Ayeyarwady River. For a limited time, you can book a cabin and receive half off the price of a companion ticket.
The deal: Prices on this cruise offered by Adventure Life start at $8,800 per person, based on double occupancy. With this deal, you save big-time — $4,400 — on a ticket for your second passenger.
The Jewels of the Ayeyarwady sails from Yangon to Bagan aboard the luxury ship Orcaella, which carries just 50 people.
When: The deal is good for departures Jan. 13, Feb. 15 and March 15. You must book by Dec. 31.
Details: Highlights include the Twante Canal built in 1883, the Shwesandaw Pagoda, the ancient city of Sri Ksetra and a 10-story sitting Buddha in Pyay. The price includes meals, beverages (wine and beer too), flights within the country and sightseeing activities. International airfare is extra.
