Dok Keow was constructed and designed by Captain Jason Deshay a 15 year veteran of the private mega yacht industry around the world. Working with a Lao team we have built what we consider to be the premiere private riverboat here in Luang Prabang. It is fully furnished with all modern safety equipment and facilities; cabins, individual bathroom, shower, kitchen area, living room area and modern life jackets.Using modern materials and building techniques, we have created a luxury charter boat built for the Mekong that satisfies western requirements yet retains an authentic Lao feel. This combination ensures our guests experience - The Mother of Rivers" in style and comfort.
