Traveler Reviews

Egal, wo ich bin, buche ich einen Kochkurs. Dies ist nicht mur ein Kochkurs, sondern ein lehrreicher tag über Bambus. Bambus wird genutzt zum kochen, musizieren, jagen, arbeiten usw. Es war sehr informativ und das Tollste war, dass ich ganz alleine da war.. Die Herzlichkeit der People war überragend. Kann ich wirklich nur empfehlen... kop djai lailal

Such warm and wonderful people. The owner is fantastic, speaks perfect English. The guides are his god children, perfecting their English in this job. The setting is amazing, I learned so much about Bamboo and Lao culture. It is a very interactive experience for all ages. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. I could not believe that I was the only one there. ??

We weren't expecting too much from this trip, but OMG were we wrong!! We were picked up in perfect timing by our guide Somsay (ask for him!) with excellent English and from there on in, we couldn't fault the experience Professional, friendly, informative, clean... So much fun preparing lunch, learning about bamboo, playing crossbow and my personal highlight, being taught to weave bamboo by a 69 year old Master bamboo weaver, who is also an ex Monk!!! It's a slightly slow start, but once you're in the day, you'll wonder where the time went. All the team at Bamboo Experience were awesome. Good work guys - thanks for some incredible memories that will last a lifetime ????
