River & Sea Cruises – Timeless Journeys on Water
Overview
Water is the oldest highway—civilisations rose on its banks, myths sailed upon its tides, and today you can glide those same routes in slow-luxury style. Our craft are intimate (10–30 guests), chef-driven, and positioned for postcard sunrises. Days unfold as gentle rhythms: dawn tai-chi, a guided temple ramble, lazy deck lunch, then perfume-soft breezes at dusk while the chef grills the day’s catch.
