Pandaw launching new India river cruise itinerary
Asia river cruise specialist Pandaw has unveiled details of a new expedition cruise on the Hooghly River that connects Kolkata with the Ganges in India.
Commencing October 2025, the 18-stateroom Kalaw Pandaw will sail from Kolkata to Baranagar and back on India’s sacred rivers.
The India river cruise explores the real India: the countryside, palaces, temples and artisanal villages and riverside communities.
The nine-night 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 more.
On the final day, guests enjoy a late disembarkation with full board catering as most international flights from India depart in the evening.
Fred. Holidays, Pandaw’s appointed GSA in the UK, has packaged up this itinerary with regular departures between October 2025 and February 2026, and September 2026 and March 2027.
There is no single supplement for the first season.
