Excellent activities, food, and crew!

My spouse and I have taken numerous cruises in the past; we both enjoy sailing and Asia. This cruise is simply the ideal fusion of the two. The boat is brand new and has great amenities; the movie theater and swimming pool were our favorites! Bravo to the crew for making our trip truly unforgettable! The food and service aboard the ship were very soothing. For a little extra relaxation, we do suggest spending a few days at Victoria Can Tho first. It is a lovely colonial-style hotel run by the same company. We appreciate you having us, and we hope to visit the Mekong Delta with our parents the following year.

Excellent

The Victoria Mekong river trip is an excellent opportunity to experience life on the Mekong. Very intriguing side trips. Best Price Travel's Zoe assisted us in booking a river cruise that accommodated four couples and provided excellent dining. The Victoria Mekong is a fantastic ship, and the crew is all extremely helpful and pleasant. We had a great day witnessing life along the Mekong.
