The Mekong River Cruise is a luxury cruise through the life and culture of the inhabitants of the Mekong River in Vietnam for 2 days, 1 night.
Tour Overview
Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam has always been an intriguing destination for our travellers. The Mekong River
tributaries dissect the area into myriad islands, one separated from the others. Daily life of local inhabitants mostly takes place on the water and this helps to shape up and maintain the traditional culture here like no others. Exotic life style, fresh natural scenery, exuberant orchards with sensational fruits have always been the draw card of the Mekong Delta in Vietnam.
There are so many canals, creeks and small tributaries that once made some areas of the Mekong Delta inaccessible to travellers. Thanks to the introduction of cruise boats, the travellers have the opportunities to explore the heart of the Mekong Delta thoroughly while still pampered with impeccable luxury service on board...
