designed by phuket-based architect pascal trahan, the boat includes two sleeping cabins each with the unique local charm of the region. this 135-foot-long ship is strikingly roomy. its interior designer jiraparnn tokeeree merged contemporary and traditional finishes for an effective result that belongs to no specific place or time. it was constructed of local hardwoods and topped with a traditional thatched roof. for three days and nights you can float away into a mystical and exciting world along the mekong river.
