Travel not only allows us to discover new destinations, people and cultures, but also ourselves. Belmond, a global collection of hotel and luxury travel experiences, announced two mindfulness river cruises in Myanmar.
In partnership with wellness retreat curator Mindfulness Journeys, Belmond will take passengers on explorations of self-discovery along the Ayeyarwady River on two different journeys.
Guests can choose from a seven-night, round-trip sailing, departing Bagan Oct. 7, or a three-night cruise departing Mandalay Oct. 11. During each cruise, the ship’s peaceful indoor Observation Lounge will provide a sense space for evening meditation, and the open-air deck will allow for inspiring, sunrise morning sessions. Select meditation sessions will take place on land in rural pagodas, botanical gardens and under mango trees in Ava.
The ship, dedicated to wellbeing, also offers spa treatment rooms, state-of-the-art fitness equipment, and Tibetan yoga sessions with professional teachers. During the cruise, guests will dine on freshly prepared healthy cuisine, including a mix of pan-Asian and Western dishes.
In addition to the wellness offerings, cultural highlights include a visit to the impressive ancient pagoda, Ananda Temple, in Bagan; a horse-drawn cart tour of Old Bagan’s archaeological zone; a monastery visit to participate in a traditional almsgiving donation to the monks; and an arts and crafts tour of Mandalay.
Rates begin at $2,656 per person for the three-night cruise and $4,632 per person for the seven-night cruise — both based on double occupancy and fully inclusive of mindfulness sessions, meals, house wines and local beers as well as all additional excursions on the itinerary.
