By Boat – Riding a boat is the easiest and most fun means of transportation around Inle Lake. If you are staying in the main town, Nyaungshwe, most tour boats start from there but even if you are staying at one of the lakeside hotels, the hotel can arrange for a water taxi or a boat tour.
By Bicycle – Many places in Nyaungshwe have bicycles for rent. However, for many of the attractions around the lake, bicycles are not the most comfortable means of transportation since we are talking about long distances.
By Taxi – If you are staying at a hotel, ask them to arrange a taxi for you but it’s usually much less convenient unless it’s for a nearby destination.
I love how you manage to capture culture so elegantly in your post!
Thank you so much Sarah, We’re so glad that you love it!
Loved all your captures, its so gorgeous especially stups

Thank you so much, Mayuri. The stupas in Indein really took us by surprise, they were breathtaking!
I can see why you loved it so much! What a beautiful part of the world. Myanmar is definitely on my list now!
Emma you should go there! It such a beautiful and unique place.
I’m so gutted I didn’t make it to Inle when I was in Myanmar- I got sick and had to go back home 🙁 I love your photos and I will definitely have to make it back there one day.
Oh man, to get that sick in the middle of a trip is such a bummer. Now you have an excuse to go back there!
Myanmar is still on our bucket list so Inle Lake has been added to the must visit list when we get there. Your photos are amazing too. Love how you capture people.
Thank you so much, Lisa. Yes, we love photographing people – it’s challenging but rewarding. Hope you’ll get to Inle and Myanmar soon!
Thank you for this post. I will be in Inle in November for two whole weeks! Your information will come in very handy. I also really admire your beautiful photos.
Thanks so much, Laureen. So happy you’ve found our post just in time. Have fun!
Wow what an intriguing read. Fascinating place with all its culture and authentic life. I loved it and it really appeals to me. Thanks for sharing. kx
Thanks so much, Karen. Inle Lake is truly stunning! We hope you’ll get to see it for yourself soon.

Thank so much Phoebe, we do our best 🙂 See you on Instagram!
What a thorough post! Myanmar is on my list but I didn’t know about this place. Now I’ve added it to my bucket list. 🙂
Merry, we’re so glad we were the ones to introduce you to Inle Lake! It’s a must-visit destination in Myanmar so make sure to spend at least 3 days there!
Your photos are magical! The water, the boats, and the fisherman — Inle Lake is beautiful!
Thanks so much, Sharon 🙂 Our pictures tell the story better than we can. We’re so happy we managed to show the magic of this place!
Wow those floating gardens look fab. I went to the floating villages in Cambodia, and there’s something special about sightseeing from the river. We met so many people while we were traveling around Cambodia and Vietnam, who recommended Myanmar … we’re going to have to make a special trip there soon.
We were only in Siem Reap and we loved it. We are planning on going back there! You should definitely visit Myanmar ASAP, it’s a stunning country!
Oh how beautiful, fairytale beautiful! 😀
Thanks, Ann – it is!
I had the pleasure of going to Inle Lake about 5 years ago. Loved every moment on the lake and the surrounding areas, It was the best part of our trip to Myanmar. Your photos are gorgeous!
Thank you so much, Kristina, we feel the same way about Inle Lake. We’ll gladly go back there any time 🙂
