The RV River Kwai is a newly built ship based on designs used by the original Irrawaddy Flotilla Company, which was founded in Burma in 1865 and operated the largest private fleet of ships in the world in the 1920s.
It combines the grandest luxuries of the colonial era in a small and intimate vessel with ten deluxe air-conditioned cabins, all of which are wood-lined with a window looking out over the river and private bathrooms with showers. There is an open-sided restaurant and sundeck above.
The boat offers a unique way to see Thailand.
