Pandaw Cruises
River and Local Conditions

Every river expedition we run can be a pioneering experience.  Every cruise may promise a first with an unexpected adventure.  We are subject to ever changing river conditions varying from flood waters to treacherous shallows.  We work in “transitional countries” and in some cases the government is non-democratic, Communist and in other places non-existent.  We can be at the mercy of unscrupulous local officials and delayed by extortionist bureaucracy.  Passengers should have read and understood our standard terms and conditions of carriage in which we emphasize the expeditionary nature of these cruises. 

Please note that itineraries are indicative and for general guidance purposes only.  Changes to itinerary or schedule are quite normal on a Pandaw river expedition.  We do make sure that if we miss anything we’ll make up for it.  Passengers who are unble to adapt to the suspense and excitements of such a river journey should not book a Pandaw cruise.  Real travellers, who truly relish the unexpected and find such experiences enriching, are very much wanted!
