Pandaw
Luxury Pandaw cruising is different from other forms of cruising. The atmosphere on board is informal and relaxed. A Pandaw river cruise is a deeply tranquil vacation experience.
Pandaw staterooms are 168sq feet (12 sq meters) which makes them amongst the roomiest afloat. They are full of character and comfort. Colonial style promenade and observation decks, saloon bar / lecture theatre and single sitting dining room make these ships amongst the smartest and most stylish of small ships.
They began twelve years ago as essentially an adventure experience, and whilst accommodation and service now is of a top standard, Pandaw refuse to compromise the tradition of respecting passengers' independence and individuality.
There is a very high level of care on board a Pandaw with impeccable service. They have a ratio of one staff member for every two guests. Pandaw do not offer special treatment to the many celebrities, everyone who buys a Pandaw ticket is a VIP and receives the same level of service and care on the river.
Pandaw river cruises are essentially an outdoor experience. Whilst the staterooms are very comfortable and roomy, passengers prefer to spend their time sitting outside, on the promenade decks or on the vast observation deck above. Exploratory shore excursions are led by expert local guides.
