NEW - Launching November 2025 - The Tonle Pandaw is the most exclusive all-suite ship sailing between Saigon & Siem Reap on the iconic Mekong river. The Tonle Pandaw features just 14 expansive suites, each 40m², complete with a private balcony and personal butler service.
Modelled on the iconic Pandaw II and originally named Pandaw III, the ship first served in Burma in 2003 before being transported to the Mekong, where she has now been transformed into a luxurious river cruiser. Her rich Burmah teak finishes in the upper deck saloon, observation decks, and formal dining room create a warm and elegant atmosphere.
Following an extensive refit in 2025, the 14 elegant Tonle Suites were crafted from the original 28 cabins, with the distinctive Burmah teak panelling thoughtfully repurposed. A professional spa and library now grace the lower deck. Despite her considerable size, the Tonle Pandaw’s ultra-shallow draft of just over a metre allows her to navigate upriver into low-water areas where other vessels are unable to reach, offering guests exclusive access to hidden landscapes along the lower Mekong.
