At Orient-Express we are genuinely passionate about the countries we visit. It only seems fair that we give something back in return for the privilege of working in these exceptional locations.
Schools
Our work in Myanmar started in 1997, when Orient-Express founder James B Sherwood and Dr Shirley Sherwood established a nursery in the small village of Shwe Kyet Yet. Since then, we have helped to build a playschool and a middle school for 50 children in the same village, as well as 10 other schools in ports along the Ayeyarwady. We have also provided books, furniture and first-aid supplies.
The Environment
Wherever we travel we always respect the local environment. We have developed recycling programmes to ensure that our river cruisers have a minimal impact on Myanmar. | | |
