Our cooking school has been hosting food-loving visitors since March 2013, when we first opened our doors to visitors from all over the world. We believe the most delicious dishes are born out quality ingredients and we hope you will taste them with us.

It is always great to find somewhere on holiday where you can try your hand at creating some if the local dishes. It's even better when you know that you are supporting a very important community project as you enjoy the experience. The Bamboo Delight Cooking School provides a high quality service for tourists wanting to do something a bit different on their visit to Inle Lake and also provides a library and summer school for local children, using some of the income from the visitors to support this work. Well done Suu for your vision and commitment to the community you serve....and for helping us to cook delicious food.

We actually didn’t do the cooking classes, however, friends who had previously visited recommended contacting Min as he offers a lot of other activities around Inle. He organised everything from kayaking, biking, hiking, visiting the local floating village markets, meeting local families for the most amazing traditional lunch, meeting REAL fisherman (not just the fake ones you see in the insta photos). His wife cooked us lunch one of the days also beside the cookery school- which was amazing. He even arranged our airport transfers. He is a local man and his passion for the local area really comes across. More importantly though, his understanding of the fragility of the lake and the environmental impacts climate change is having is really inspiring. I wish him and his wife every success for their business in the future!

This place and the ladies working here are amazing! Not only you get to have an unforgettable massage, well done, but you also get to have one for little money and a lot of time. In my 5 day stay at Inle lake, I went there 3 or 4 times, also bringing friends with me at times. While they said the massage is for 1h and the price for as little as 7k kyats (this was in Sep 2019), they actually massage you for much longer than that, sometimes almost 1.5h - no extra charge! They just really care to make the customer feel great! Also they are great hosts: when you arrive at their place, they sit you down, offer you snacks and tea, and do the same at the end of the massage. Lastly, the massage they offer is at times therapeutic, other times pure relaxation. It all depends on what you tell them or how they "read" the needs of your body with their hands - they are this talented and intuitive! By the way, the products they used are done inhouse, 100% natural and vegan, they use pure coconut oil. This way, they actually support local practices and products. It is one of the best massage places I have been in my life!

We will adventure through the beautiful mountainous ranges and the diverse forestry that Inle Lake surroundings has to offer. Passing through small rural villages, local farming/ agriculture, river crossings, ancient caves, temples and many more, also joining rural villages to enjoy some local cuisine made and prepared by me. Embark on a truly local experience which you will never forget.

We spent our last 3 out of 12 days of holidays on Inle Lake and it was the best part of the whole trip. Here you can really see the beauty of Myanmar. Inle Lake area as well as Samkar Lake area are not only very beautiful but a lot is happening there. You must have a guide to rake you to all these places. We were lucky to find on TripAdvisor contact to Naing Moe (+95 942837 2125) who made sure that each minute of our time was filled in and we were very well taken care of. Special thanks to his friend Pie who was with us the first 2 days. Upon arrival in Heho we were picked up and drove to Pindaya cave with 8,000 Buddha statues, and drove around villages. The second day we went 50k by boat to Samkar, saw a complex of old stupas, floating stupas, pottery making and rice whisky workshops, walked through a village and saw many floating villages. The third day we cruised on Inle Lake, saw fishermen and their village, went up the river to see amazing 16th century stupa ruins, attended lotus and silk weaving and cigar making workshops. It was all super interesting and the views everywhere are breathtaking. People at Inle are the nicest ever. We stayed at Aureum Palace Hotel and Resort. We loved it. Beautiful, large rooms, very cosy restaurant with perfect menu. The avocado salad was great. And the spa is definitely worth a visit too. Excellent value for the money spent.

Small but well-taken care of, this is a beautiful wood make monastery. The nearby Paya with different sizes of statues, glass works and volunteer-contributed restauration is worth a visit.
