IN · Published Jul 7, 2026
Pandaw Cruises has introduced new three- and four-night river cruise itineraries on the Hooghly Ganges River, starting and ending in Kolkata.
These shorter cruises are designed to cater to travelers who wish to explore Bengal without committing to a week-long journey.

Impact & Risks

The new itineraries are expected to attract both domestic and international tourists, particularly those seeking flexible and diverse travel experiences in India. This initiative could boost tourism in Bengal and support local economies along the river. However, there may be challenges in managing increased tourist traffic and ensuring sustainable practices to protect the river's ecosystem and cultural sites.
