Pandaw’s story began with a single restored Clyde-built steamer and a vision to bring the golden age of river cruising back to Asia. What started as a passion project soon became a pioneering movement—opening up remote waterways and introducing travelers to the rich cultures along the rivers of Southeast Asia and beyond. Join us as we look back on 30 years of milestones, voyages, and unforgettable moments in our latest video below.
Journey back to the very beginning of Pandaw’s river adventures. From the first charter of the Irrawaddy Princess in 1995 to the arrival of MV Myat Thanda in 1996, these early milestones paved the way for a new era of exploration. Relive the excitement of those early voyages and witness the creation of Pandaw I: the vessel that started the fleet as we know it today.
