INTRODUCING THE PANDAW EXPERIENCE The Pandaw experience is all about exploring remote and often hard-to-navigate rivers in specially-designed luxury small ships. Each ship, hand-crafted in brass and teak, is an object of beauty in itself. A Pandaw adventure is very different from that offered on an oceangoing cruise. The ships are small scale, and the atmosphere is informal and very friendly. While the craft may be small, Pandaw has the highest passenger-to-deck- space ratio of any cruise ship afloat. There are plenty of quiet spots to be discovered where you can read a book, write your travel journal, or simply meditate on the spectacular passing landscape or chat with like-minded travellers friends old and new. Pandaw designs its ships with 360-degree promenade decks that allow its passengers the freedom to interact as much, or as little, as they like. It all adds to the famous ‘Pandaw spirit’ that brings so many guests back onboard time and time again. Many passengers have described life on board a Pandaw cruise as more like being a guest on a private motor yacht, than a passenger on a conventional cruise ship. For a start, their itineraries and quest for the most spectacular sights and experiences are far more intrepid than conventional cruises. And when passengers return to the ship after experiencing the wonders of life onshore, they are coming back to a floating oasis of low-key luxury, caring service and all the good things of life.
