Living Irrawaddy Dolphin Boat & Tents
Our tours include roundtrip transport (departing from Mandalay) on the Living Irrawaddy Dolphin Boat. The boat is a two-storey, traditional wooden ship with three simple bamboo cabins, a shared bathroom, and simple lounge with couch and hammock on the bottom floor. The top deck is great for taking in the scenes of the Ayeyawaddy River, dolphin watching, and enjoying the sunset and sunrise. Guests may choose to stay in the boat cabins or in our deluxe tents (for a small extra fee), which are prepared next to the river bank by one of the communities.
