Itinerary

Day 1 - Siem Reap, Cambodia
Board your ship and set sail on the Mekong.
Begin your journey in Siem Reap, where ancient temples and modern elegance intertwine. Travel by motorcoach to Kampong Cham and board your luxurious ship before sharing a welcome dinner as you meet fellow travelers and your cruise team.

Day 2 - Angkor Ban, Cambodia
Explore Angkor Ban, a rare Cambodian village untouched by the Khmer Rouge, with stilted wooden houses and lush banana trees. Later, sail to Silk Island, where centuries-old weaving traditions flourish. Visit a local school and witness artisans crafting silk by hand, then moor in the village as the Mekong’s gentle current carries you forward.

Day 3 - Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Phnom Penh unfolds along the river with elegance and reflection. Stroll along tree-lined avenues and vibrant streets, feeling the city’s rhythms and resilience. In the afternoon, serene spaces and solemn landscapes invite contemplation, while the evening comes alive with the rich movement and music of Khmer folk traditions.

Day 4 - Oudong, Cambodia
Ascend to Oudong, Cambodia’s former royal capital, where a Buddhist Blessing Ceremony offers a serene start to your day. Take in sweeping views of the plains, then return to Phnom Penh for a tuk tuk tour through its French Colonial streets, tree-lined boulevards, and iconic landmarks such as Wat Phnom.

Day 5 - Tan Chau, Vietnam
Drift peacefully along the Mekong as you cross from Cambodia into Vietnam, watching the lush riverside landscapes change and the rhythm of river life unfold around you.

Day 6 - Tan Chau, Vietnam
Discover Tan Chau, a charming Mekong River town where local life remains unspoiled. Explore via trishaw, visit silk and rattan workshops, or take an active walking tour. Alternatively, glide through Tra Su Forest by traditional sampan, surrounded by lotus flowers, cajuput trees, and rare birds in a serene delta paradise.

Day 7 - Sa Déc, Vietnam
Step ashore in Sa Déc, where French writer Marguerite Duras once lived. Visit the vibrant market, Cao Dai Temple, or the historic Huynh Thuy Le House. In the afternoon, tour candy and rice paper workshops or explore Kiet Old House on foot. Conclude the day with a festive farewell dinner aboard the ship.

Day 8 - My Tho, Vietnam
Disembark and begin your journey home
