The Road To Mandalay is a de-luxe river cruiser which sails along the Ayeyarwady River in ancient Burma, now known as Myanmar.  Your guests will be able to see the glittering jewel of Burma hidden away from foreign eyes for most of the 20th Century, whilst enjoying luxurious on board comfort.  

From early morning, when Buddhist monks board the ship in a traditional ritual, to evening, when a when a glimmering swathe of candles is floated on the Ayeyarwady River - a voyage aboard the Road To Mandalay is an occasion unlike any other. Special events held on board will live forever in the memory. Small wonder that many groups of guests charter the entire ship and create their own itinerary.
