River Stops
All trips ashore are escorted by a member of the ship's crew. But
passengers who wish to make their own explorations are welcome to.
In each place we stop for a minimum of one and a half hours. There
is additional accommodation on board for licensed guides accompanying
passengers that should be booked in advance.
Pakokku - is a typical Upper Burmese market town. We visit
the large and bustling market, a cigar factory and hand weaving
workshops.
Yandabo - this is a rarely visited small village with no
road access to the world. Dependant on the riverine economy this
village is famous for the production of terracotta pottery made
from river bank mud. We see the pottery making process at various
stages. We are invited into people's homes and visit the local monastery.
The Past Pandaw passengers have generously donated funds to build
a new and modern school for the village and we are currently involved
in other projects to support this community who have always welcomed
us so warmly. Yandabo is famous in Burmese history as the place
where the Treaty of Yandabo was signed in 1855 between the Burmese
king and the British. it is now a centre of pot production.
Sameikkon is another rarely visited typical village with
its old colonial houses, monastery and teak bridge
