RV Kanee Pandaw Cruise

Pandaw are delighted to announce the construction of a new fourteen cabin RV Kanee Pandaw K-class ship for Burma, now renamed Myanmar. Pandaw have seventeen beautifully crafted Pandaw ships in Operation that they built themselves. These ultra-shallow twin decked K class vessels can go where other ships cannot and are perfect for Pandaw’s style of soft adventure river expeditions. These much-loved, safari-style vessels offer outdoor or indoor dining, run-round promenades and ample indoor and outdoor living space. The cabins are slightly smaller than on Pandaw’s larger ships but cleverly designed and very comfortable with roomy bathrooms. The K-class dated back to the 1880s and were comprised of stern wheelers designed to reduce draft, their boilers placed in the bow to improve trim. Smaller than the great line steamers of the age, the K-class ships were used on the Chindwin and upper reaches of the Irrawaddy. Where possible we have reused the old IFC names and many of these original K-class ships had fascinating histories, through times of war and peace. For more information … https://www.pandaw.com
