CANAL & RIVER CRUISING

Orient-Express offer two unique and very diverse cruising experiences.

The Road To Mandalay river cruiser sails the mighty Ayeyarwady River in Myanmar between Mandalay and Bagan and to Bhamo, near the Chinese border. Marvel at the golden roofs of a thousand pagodas, the opulence of ancient palaces and the traditions of riverside settlements.        

Afloat in France operates five luxury Péniches, travelling through areas including Bordeaux, Burgundy and Provence. Carrying between six and twelve passengers, they are unusually spacious and perfect to hold a house party on board.
