Sukapha

The tour operator and cruise provider Phoenix Reisen was founded in 1973 and specialises in high-quality river and ocean cruises. The portfolio includes not only classic river cruises, e.g. on the Danube, the Rhine and the Volga, but also exotic itineraries such as cruises in South America, the Orient or the South Seas. Due to the small ship sizes with capacities from 150 to 1200 passengers, there is a family atmosphere on board. During the cruise you enjoy high-quality dishes from the maritime fish buffet and grilled specialities to desserts and cakes. Phoenix Reisen also offers special arrangements for wedding couples, birthday children or other anniversaries and celebrations.

MS Sukapha was built in 2006 especially for travelling on the rivers of eastern India and offers space for a maximum of 24 passengers. On board the ship you will find comfortable cabins, a restaurant, a salon with bar, a spa area as well as a viewing and sun deck with loungers and shaded areas. In a family atmosphere, the ship takes you on the Brahmaputra through the tea region of Assam to numerous unique places in the region. MS Sukapha impresses with art objects and handlooms made by local artists and craftsmen.

On board the Sukapha, a quiet, intimate and comfortable atmosphere awaits you, allowing you to relax away from the stresses of everyday life. You can reflect on the day with a cool drink in the bar or take an evening stroll ashore during an overnight stop. The ship usually drops anchor in a natural, idyllic spot. During the day, make yourself comfortable on one of the many loungers on the sun deck and enjoy the view.

A rich breakfast buffet and multi-course lunches and dinners await you on board. In the restaurant, which is already included in the price, you will be served local dishes and specialties at a common table time. In addition to the restaurant, the Sukapha also has a salon with bar (not included).

Linger on the sun deck with its numerous loungers and enjoy the view of the passing landscape or let yourself be pampered in the spa area. A selection of board games as well as an assortment of books in the library is usually at your disposal. Please note, however, that only a very limited entertainment programme can be offered on this small river ship. A variety of shore excursions give you the opportunity to get to know the country and its people along the route.

If you want to travel in comfort and in a family atmosphere and discover unspoilt, remote places in East India, then you are in the right place on board the Sukapha.
