The Pandaw IV will launch for its annual cruise on the Chindwin River and the northern tributaries of the Irrawaddy River this September. Guests will fly to Kalemyo and board the Pandaw IV to the town of Homalin, the gateway to the Naga homeland. The cruise then continues back down the Chindwin to the river port town of Bagan (and its many stupas) and onward up the northern Irrawaddy.

Guests may board the Pandaw for just the Chindwin portion of the cruise (10 days) or both the Chindwin and Irrawaddy portions (20 days).

Seeing Bagan from the air via a hot air balloon is a perennial favorite of ours (and many of our customers). What many don’t realize is that a bird’s eye view is also available for visits around Angkor Wat. We are excited to announce that we are able to provide helicopter tours around Angkor through a partnership with Sokha Helicopters.

Not only are these helicopters available for sightseeing around Angkor, they can be used to transfer your clients in style throughout Cambodia. Instead of booking flights to Siem Reap, a chartered helicopter transfer makes that incentive much more special and exciting.
