Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are the most common and recommended option. Inside the arrival hall, there is a taxi counter with fixed, official prices. You pay at the counter based on your destination zone (e.g., Nyaung U, Old Bagan, New Bagan) and receive a ticket to give to your driver. This system is straightforward and prevents overcharging. The ride to most hotels takes 15-30 minutes.

Rental Cars

Self-drive car rentals are not generally available for tourists at Bagan Airport. The standard practice is to hire a private car with a driver for a half-day or full-day. This can be arranged with the taxi drivers at the airport upon arrival or booked in advance through your hotel or a local tour operator. For getting around Bagan independently, renting an e-bike (electric scooter) from your hotel or a town shop is the most popular choice after you have checked in.

Public Transportation

There is no public bus or train service that directly connects Bagan Airport to the main tourist areas. The primary mode of transport is the pre-paid taxi. Some hotels may offer shuttle services for their guests, but these must be arranged in advance and are not part of a public system. While horse carts are a classic Bagan experience, they are typically hired for tours rather than as a practical airport transfer.
