The deal is available on three of the line’s “most popular” itineraries: The Classic Mekong between Cambodia and Vietnam, The Mandalay Pagan Packet on the Irrawaddy and The Chindwin in Burma, with departures available in July, August, September and October 2018.

The offer applies to up to two children aged five to 18 years, when travelling with two full-paying adults.

Paul Strachan, Pandaw founder and chief executive said: “A river cruise in Asia provides an enlightening experience for children.  It takes them a world away from their daily lives, broadens their minds and nurtures a sense of adventure.

“By offering a second cabin, free of charge, for children during the school holidays, we’re making it accessible for families to explore Asia in the safety and comfort of a Pandaw ship.

“The cruise includes daily excursions, full board, local drinks, cultural performances, movie nights and free mountain bikes to explore rural villages, temples and countryside.”
