 Luxury
river expedition company, Pandaw has announced its new eight-day Brahmaputra
River programme in partnership with MV Mahabaahu. The itineraries will commence
in March 2015, offering Pandaw guests an off-the-beaten track, luxury
exploration of the Assam region in the north-east of India.
Guest onboard the Pandaw-led sailing will visit the largest river island in the
world and meet the Mishing people that inhabit the region. Pandaw guests will
head into the Assam province's rich, green hills, plains and forests to learn
more about the aromatic tea that it is known for.
Travel by boat, jeep and elephant and get up close to single horned rhinos,
buffaloes, Indian tigers and river dolphins, as well as experiencing the
untouched scenery of the Kaziranga National Park.
Pandaw guests will enjoy a 'yacht-like' feel onboard the 23-suite MV Mahabaahu
as well as five-star luxury service and a crew to passenger ratio of 2:1.
The Brahmaputra River is the only navigable river in the world from which the
6,500 metre high, snow covered Himalaya Mountains can be seen. It is also the
only river, apart from the Zambezi River in Africa where elephant, jeep and boat
safaris are found together. Guests will experience the rich living culture of
the Assam region with visits to temples, tribal villages, monasteries, ancient
palaces and tea estates.
In addition to the cruise, Pandaw also offers pre and post stays in luxury
five-star hotels in Delhi and Kolkata, including domestic connecting flights. |
