Luxury river cruise in Burma

QUESTION: I watched a BBC TV programme about a luxury river cruise past temples in Burma, but did not get the contact details. Could you find me some information about this? - Jennifer Katz

ANSWER: The cruise you are looking for is called the Road To Mandalay, which travels the Ayeyarwady River in Myanmar (Burma) between Bagan to Mandalay. Operated by the Orient-Express group, the cruises range from three to seven nights. Accommodation is in luxury cabins, and the ship is fitted with a bar and lounge, observation deck, beauty salon and a boutique. The price for a double cabin on a three-night cruise ranges from around 1600 to 2000 US dollars. For bookings, check out www.orient-express.com or a travel agent.
