If you need help organising domestic flight tickets and hotel bookings within Myanmar, I can recommend Radiant Tours – they did a great job of helping me when I visited Burma
A friend recently asked me if I had any tips for reliable travel agents in Myanmar (formerly Burma), so I thought it would be good to post the info here too. When I went to Myanmar back in March 2007, I was there for just a week to see Bagan, with a couple of days in Yangon too. I had a fantastic time and definitely plan to return to explore more of this fascinating country. (You can see my posts on Mount Popa: Temple In The Sky and The Giant Reclining Buddha of Yangon as well as How To Get A Myanmar Visa in Bangkok).
The Myanmar Travel agent I would recommend is Radiant Tours – I found them through several word of mouth recommendations on the Lonely Planet Thorn Tree discussion board and they were extremely helpful and reliable. English is still widely spoken in Burma so there were no written communication difficulties either. They have a decent website at www.radianttours.com and respond rapidly to email – their address is info@radiant.com.mm – you can also go to their offices within Yangon to collect tickets etc – I’m not sure if they do delivery outside of Myanmar, but you can always ask.
