What travellers say
The transaction went very smoothly. I just showed the QR code to the person at the booth, no unnecessary questions. Put in the sim on my extra phone and was good to go. I was able to give the 2nd sim for my brother in law in case we would have different itineraries during our trip. Got a big discount for purchasing it online through Pelago.
The Singapore SIM card was an excellent option. Really easy to use with none of the issues I have suffered with e-sims. Simply plug in and go! Great speed, reliable service and perfect coverage. The pick up process at the airport was well organised and efficient. Thank you
Loved the Phillip Island 3 Park Pass from Pelago! The Penguin Parade was the absolute highlight. I upgraded to the Discovery Experience, which gave access to the Plus viewing area - definitely worth it! The closer vantage point made a huge difference in our penguin-watching experience. While the general viewing is ok, I highly recommend upgrading for an unforgettable encounter. The pass offers great value, covering multiple attractions on the island. A must-do for wildlife enthusiasts and families with kids!

Frequently asked questions
About Mandalay
Mandalay is located in the central region of Myanmar and is known for its rich history and cultural heritage. The currency used in Mandalay is the Burmese Kyat. The city is famous for its ancient temples, monasteries, and pagodas, including the iconic Mandalay Hill. Visitors can also explore the Royal Palace and the U Bein Bridge, the longest teak bridge in the world.
When to visit
The best time to visit Mandalay is during the dry season from November to February when the weather is cool and pleasant. Avoid visiting during the hot season from March to May when temperatures can soar above 40 degrees Celsius. The rainy season from June to October can also bring heavy downpours and flooding.
Getting around
Getting around Mandalay is easy with options like taxis, motorbike taxis, and trishaws. Renting a bicycle or a scooter is also a popular choice for exploring the city and its surroundings. Public buses and shared pickups known as 'songthaews' are affordable modes of transportation for budget travelers.
Traveller tips
When visiting Mandalay, remember to dress modestly when visiting religious sites and remove your shoes before entering temples. Bargaining is common in markets, so don't be afraid to negotiate prices. Be cautious of scams and only exchange money at authorized currency exchange counters. Stay hydrated and carry a reusable water bottle to reduce plastic waste. Lastly, try the local street food for an authentic culinary experience.
