Charaidew II

The Charaidew II is a testament to luxury river cruising in India, blending modern comfort with traditional Assamese charm. Her extra-shallow draught and low profile allow for navigation to less-traveled areas of the Brahmaputra River—a holy body of water whose banks are home to incredible wildlife as well as small, rarely visited communities—making her the quintessential home base to explore one of India's most captivating regions.

Just 146 feet long with three decks, and tastefully adorned with traditional Assamese décor, the Charaidew II provides an intimate atmosphere to explore this rich yet seldom-visited region.

French balconies are standard across all cabins, and the sumptuous Category 3 cabins feature an additional private balcony plus floor-to-ceiling windows in the ensuite bathrooms for sweeping river views.

Soothing massages and spa treatments are offered in the ship’s spa, and guests can observe wildlife and rural village life from the gym.

A combination of Western and traditional Indian cuisines, as well as traditional Assam teas, are served on board. Guests can also enjoy a wide selection of wines, spirits and beer.
