Aqua Mekong journeys between Cambodia and Vietnam on the Mekong River. Guest can either opt to spend 3, 4 or 7 nights on board and choose which direction they want to go in. During low water season, cruises are 3 nights from Cambodia to Vietnam or 4 nights from Vietnam to Cambodia.
The full 7 night itinerary in high water season starts in Saigon and takes you through My Tho, Cai Be, Chau Doc, Phnom Penh, Kampong Channang and finishes at Siem Reap or vice versa. Should you chose one of the shorter trips you will be able to enjoy specific parts of the route.
This is a great way to explore the Mekong River, the intriguing culture you find along the way and to observe the varied scenery of flooded emerald forests, bamboo silt villages, beautiful sunsets and luscious countryside. The boat itself is in keeping with the natural surroundings as it has been made from local sustainable materials and the Mekong's culture is evident in the décor and furnishings.
The boat very much resembles a luxury hotel, there is ample space on this 62.4 metre vessel and the suites are spacious and very comfortable with modern amenities. The staff to guest ratio is 1:1 meaning that the service is impeccable and all your preferences are catered for. There are many common areas where you can relax and watch the river life pass you by such as the outdoor lounge, observation deck and outdoor pool.
A journey on board the Aqua Mekong is the ideal way to take in the local life on the river and appreciate beautiful scenery whilst enjoying some creature comforts.
When to visit
The 60-minute foot reflexology in the spa was one of the best treatments I have ever had!
