Cruising on the River Kwai

from 1189

Four days including twin cabin accommodation, transfers, meals, activities

Cruise past lush landscapes and temples

The RV River Kwai is Thailand's first river cruise ship, built in colonial style. The ship offers simple accommodation for 20 passengers in 10 teak cabins and sails year-round on a 4-day schedule on the Kwai Noi, both upstream and downstream. The Kwai Noi is one of the two rivers that make up the River Kwai.

The River Kwai is famous for the events during World War II and the 415 km Burma Railway, also known as the Death Railway. But the banks of the river have more to offer than history. On this river cruise, you'll be treated to green, lush landscapes and impressive temples.
