Mekong River Cruises

From its source high up in the Tibetan Plateau the powerful Mekong River courses for over 3,000 miles through China, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam, providing a lifeline for millions of people. In Vietnam, cruise the massive Mekong Delta, a picturesque area dotted with rice paddies, fish farms, fruit orchards and more. The rice produced in the delta accounts for over half of Vietnam’s rice production. In Cambodia, explore French-influenced Phnom Penh, the spectacular Silver Pagoda, and learn about the sobering Khmer Rouge regime. North of the city, cruise on the Tonle River, which connects the main Mekong with Tonle Sap or 'Great Lake'. This is one of the most picturesque parts of your journey as the river narrows and passes amongst villages and woodlands.
