Irrawaddy River Tour Selection Trips
- A number of river cruise lines now operate on the Irrawaddy, including Viking River Cruises, Pandaw River Expeditions, CroisiEurope, Belmond, Uniworld, Avalon, and AmaWaterways.
- Irrawaddy River cruises may take anywhere from four days to two weeks, depending on the itinerary.
- Many cruise packages include sightseeing in Bagan, Yangon and Mandalay, increasing length to a week or more.
- You can choose one-way or roundtrip cruises.
- Usual embarkation or disembarkation points are Yangon in the south and Bagan and Mandalay to the north, but some cruises start or end farther north in Burma.
- You can also add on cruises along Burma’s Chindwin River, the Irrawaddy’s largest tributary and home to more jungles, gorges, and rural villages.
- Be sure to pack modest clothing that covers the shoulders and legs to enter Buddhist temples. In general, pack loose-fitting long pants and/or skirts for women, instead of shorts. Pick thin fabrics to stay cool.
- When it’s winter in North America and Europe, it’s monsoon season in Burma. That means rain, but also somewhat cooler temperatures and fewer crowds.
- Dry season brings more heat, more visitors, and higher water levels (from snow melt in the Himalayas) that may result in longer portions of navigable river.
