River Kwai Cruise + Golf

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.
The RV River Kwai carries a maximum of 20 passengers in 10 teakwood cabins (single deck) and operates on a 4 days/3 nights year round program every Monday-Thursday and Thursday-Sunday on both Upstream and Downstream programs alternately.

The RV River Kwai opens up an entirely new area for golf-enthusiasts and river tourism in Kanchanaburi province west of Bangkok.
In the early mornings, we offer the tee-off golfs at the selected golf courses, and the afternoon at leisure on the boat or with the land excursions to visit attractions along the river including historic sites, waterfalls, war cemeteries, hot springs, the bridge on the River Kwai, and local attractions.
