RV TONLE PANDAW

Originally named the Pandaw III, the RV Tonle first sailed in Burma in 2003. It then journeyed to the lower Mekong river, where it's been a Saigon - Kampong Cham staple. Crafted with beautiful Burmese teak, it features a stunning upper deck saloon and dining area. A 2013 renovation added a spa and library, while a 2025 update transformed eight cabins into four spacious upper deck suites, reusing the original teak. Despite its size, the Tonle's shallow draft allows it to navigate low-water regions others can't.
