Mekong River Cruises

Explore

The Mekong Delta is situated in Cambodia and South Vietnam, where the Mekong River reaches the South China Sea. A cruise on the Mekong River is a wonderful choice for a holiday – transporting you serenely to another world.

As your Mekong cruise takes you along wide stretches of water and through narrow channels surrounded by jungle travelling through Vietnam and Cambodia, you’ll have the rare privilege of experiencing a remarkable ecosystem. It’s one of the richest areas of biodiversity in the world – with otters, fishing cats, turtles, crocodiles, a huge variety of birdlife and an estimated 850 freshwater fish species.

  • Our selection of Mekong River cruises lasts for 15 or 16 days, meaning that you can spend time immersing yourself in a beautiful part of the world. Both of our trips start in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Depending on which package you go with, highlights of your Mekong River cruise could include:
  • Visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels in Saigon, a complex network of tunnels used by the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War.
  • Visiting Cái Bè’s beautiful waterfront and floating market.
  • Seeing the colourful Cao Dai temple.
  • Exploring Tiger Island. Here you will visit a colourful Buddhist pagoda dedicated to the tiger that legend says once inhabited the island.
  • Traveling to the heart of Cambodia to visit Angkor Ban, where you can witness rural, traditional life.
  • Seeing the beautiful sights of Angkor’s incredible temples, including Angkor Wat and Bayon Temple.

These highlights just give you some idea of the wonderful experiences you can have on one of our Mekong River cruises. Learn more about our highly-rated Mekong cruises below.
