There can be no river in the world as sacred as the Ganges and an expedition on the Lower Ganges or Hooghly is one of the world’s prettiest river journeys imaginable. The river winds its way through the lush countryside of West Bengal with its culturally significant towns crammed with temples and palaces. A rich and vibrant rural life abounds and there is never a dull moment as you sedately ply this pleasant waterway.

A decade ago, for the first time since colonial times, Pandaw pioneered river expeditions in India. Since then they have depended on modern style and often impractically designed partnerships. They are now able to offer an original Pandaw ship, vastly more suited to river expeditions in the tropics and far more comfortable too.

There can be no better vessels to explore this rich tapestry than on a stately Pandaw vessel. Currently the Pandaw fleet, having served passengers in four countries, offers stateroom with personal verandah space and indoor dining.
