SINGAPORE, 17 January 2025: Pandaw, Asia\u2019s specialist river cruise operator, has announced an exciting new expedition on the Hooghly River that connects Kolkata with the Ganges, starting October 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 18-stateroom Kalaw Pandaw<\/a> will sail from Kolkata to Baranagar and back on India\u2019s most sacred rivers. The adventure captures the essence of the real India: enchanting countryside, magnificent palaces, mystical temples and artisanal villages, not to mention very friendly folk and riverside communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The itinerary also includes two nights in Kolkata, allowing passengers to spend two full days sightseeing in the former capital of the Indian Raj. The city has a huge museum, 18th-century churches, temples, mosques, and architectural splendours that reflect the Raj’s glory days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late check-out on the 10th day enables passengers to stay on board, with full board catering, as most international flights from India depart at night. As Indian hotels compete with London or Paris in costliness, a 10-day itinerary such offers travellers real value as the cruise itinerary becomes a stand-alone Pandaw India trip, meaning that pre and post-cruise hotel bookings in Kolkata are not required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prices start from USD2,950 per person sharing, excluding international flights. There are no single supplements on all first-season departures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
