What to expect
Discover a hidden gem in Sankar Village with this guided one day tour that shows you unique cultures, as well as stunning floating farms and villages! The tour begins with a pick up at your hotel in Nyaung Shwe City, followed by a scenic boat ride across Inle Lake. Gaze at the lake's serene waters and lush bamboo forests while you make your way to Sankar, the farthest village in the area, where you'll be greeted by a fantastic view of ruined stupas set against the dense vegetation behind it. Once you get off the boat, you'll explore the village with your English-speaking tour guide - meet the friendly villagers as you watch them collect lotus flowers from the lake and see students make their way from school. Visit Thar Kaung, the only temple in the village, before you take a quick lunch break at your own expense and head back to your hotel in Nyaung Shwe.

A nice experience to see a small village and how they live... not so much tourism (it’s better like that). We walk a little beet inside Village and we saw even a little farm (small little pigs) :-).. we buy Honey from local producer. We saw also how they produce rice alcool where we can try it .. and we also buy a small jar. It’s a 3 hours trip but it worth’s to see the landscape also!!!!
