CAPITAL OF TANINTHARYI REGION

Dawei, the capital of the Tanintharyi region in southern Myanmar, was once known as Tavoy during the colonial era. You can reach Dawei by air from Yangon, with a flight time of about one and a half hours, or by bus, which takes approximately 14 hours.

Dawei is an intriguing town to explore, offering a blend of historical heritage, stunning natural surroundings, and beautiful beaches. We’ll also visit idyllic beaches like Maungmagan, Nyaung Pyin, and Nabule. From Dawei, you can drive to the remote town of Htee Kee, a four to five-hour overland journey. Htee Kee serves as the Myanmar border town where you can cross into Phunaron (Phu Nam Ron), the nearest small border town, which is close to the bustling city of Kanchanaburi in Thailand.
