The RV River Kwai, the first inland cruise ship in Thailand, is a newly built colonial style river cruiser based on designs used by the original Irrawaddy Flotilla which was founded in Burma in 1865 and by the 1920s was the largest privately owned fleet of ships in the world. RV River Kwai cruising on the River Kwai. It's the perfect way to see parts of Thailand that are otherwise inaccessible. Plenty of comfort and a "cruisy" schedule too.

Dubbed “The Orient Express of the River”, this vessel is a 20-meter-long rice barge that has been carefully restored and lavishly converted into an ultra-deluxe river cruiser. Designed for up to four couples, Manohra Song explores Thailand’s famous Menam Chao Phraya, in unmatched luxury and comfort. Built upon the original 100-year-old, solid teak hull, Manohra Song features four air-conditioned staterooms with queen-size beds, ensuite bathrooms, and an expansive saloon living and dining area with bar, plus an ample forward sun-deck lounging area, with private crew quarters and kitchen in the aft section

Elaborate detail meticulously crafted by hand into the teakwood is used throughout the vessel and is reminiscent of a traditional Thai dwelling in days gone by. Custom-designed furniture and muted soft natural fabrics with splashes of color for contrast are set against the rich teak finishes. Many silks are used for the furnishings and wall hangings and artifacts from around the country are incorporated in the interior design with inspiration drawn from images of life during the reign of King Rama V.

After an extensive re-furbishing program, the barge 'Montha' is one of the latest, and undoubtedly, most luxurious vessel to re-enter the river trade. Catering to travellers and business persons alike, 'Montha' plies the Chao Phraya and its tributaries, providing accommodation and facilities in a luxurious yet traditional style.
