RIVER CRUISE ON THE AYEYARWADDY RIVER BETWEEN MANDALAY & BHAMO:

This expedition combines scenic interest with a study of local life and culture. We visit the main historic and cultural centres as well as many remoter places well off the beaten track. Such small towns and villages are part of a rich river economy and thriving with local industry and activity. Irrawaddy valley civilization has changed little in hundreds of years and wherever we go the people are warm, friendly and very hospitable.

The river varies enormously: it is vast with endless winding channels just above Mandalay and then dark and narrow through the 3rd Defile. It is a constantly changing landscape with a stunning back drop of mountains.

With the RV Pandaw 1947:

The RV Pandaw 1947 was built in Scotland in 1947 for the shallow conditions of the Ayeyarwaddy. The Pandaw is a ship laden with charm, atmosphere and character. With fine cuisine and high standards of service a cruise on the RV Pandaw 1947 is a unique travel experience. Click here to see a complete Deck Plan of the RV Pandaw 1947.
