Antara Cruises recommenced its India-Bangladesh river cruise programme whilst relaunching its flagship Ganga Vilas following a major enhancement programme.
The vessel now features the first open-air sun deck pool on the Ganges.
The announcement represents Antara's latest investment in India's growing luxury river cruise sector, combining enhanced onboard amenities with the return of cross-border river journeys.
"The addition of an open-air pool on Ganga Vilas is another step towards redefining luxury river cruising in India and reinforcing our commitment to providing world-class facilities and exceptional hospitality," stated Raj Singh, founder & chairman of Antara Cruises.
The recommencement of these sailings opens access to an itinerary linking two countries through historic waterways, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, wildlife habitats and riverside communities. Bookings are now open for Varanasi-Kolkata sailings in late 2026, with India-Bangladesh departures available for 2027.
Originally inaugurated by India's prime minister in January 2023, the vessel comprises elegantly appointed suites, automated panoramic bay windows, gourmet dining and personalised service.
