The RV Kalaw is able to accommodate up to 36 passengers, making it a medium-sized vessel compared to the rest of Pandaw’s fleet. On board you’ll find ample space in which to socialize with fellow guests and relax whilst taking in the wonderful views, and you may observe passing teak barges, small fishing boats and unforgettable night skies.
Your time ashore will allow you to see the highlights of Myanmar’s central plains up close and with the expertise of Pandaw’s guides, who have explored the region for many years and can answer any questions you may have about your surroundings.
Pandaw also supports some local charity projects, so by traveling on board their vessels you’ll be helping the communities that line your route.
Cabins
The boat has 18 stateroom cabins across the upper and main decks, all with air conditioning, an en suite bathroom and 18 square meters of space. Guests can gaze through their cabin's panoramic French window at the passing scenery.
