Sailing the Mekong is one of the most magical journeys in Southeast Asia, offering a glimpse into a world filled with ancient cultures and awe-inspiring sights. Stretching over 2,700 miles, the Mekong flows through some of the most beautiful and exotic landscapes in the world, from the bamboo jungles of Thailand to the vast open rice paddies of Cambodia. From floating villages to lush green jungles, there’s something for everyone.
Start your journey in Vietnam – here you can explore bustling cities such as Ho Chi Minh City or take part in traditional food tours and cooking classes. Once you’ve had your fill, head north towards Cambodia – an area known for its breath-taking temples, enchanting markets and vibrant nightlife.
Further upstream lies Thailand – a country steeped in rich culture and natural beauty. Spend some time exploring Bangkok before sailing down to Chiang Rai – an area home to crystal clear lakes, Buddhist monasteries and traditional hill tribes. Make sure to stop off at one of the many national parks while on your journey too - perfect for trekking and wildlife spotting.
With a sleek and comfortable river cruise, each day brings new adventures. Whether it is exploring a remote temple, bargaining for souvenirs at a bustling market or simply soaking up the stunning scenery.
From historic monuments to untouched nature - a trip along the Great Mekong River is a bucket worthy trip.
