The cruise was brilliant! I did a Tripadvisor review praising them and you - thank you for everything. The Angkor Wat day went OK, but it was so hot that David felt quite bad, but that’s not your fault. Best wishes, Frances

I contacted BestPrice Travel early this year as I was planning a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia and wanted to cruise the Mekong River.
Rosie from BestPrice reached out to me and made several recommendations based on my requirements and dates. She recommended the Jahan, Heritage Line, from Saigon to Siem Reap (8 days and 7 nights). Rosie highly recommended Heritage, and the boat, people, food, excursions, service, and guides were exemplary.
Great overall experience.

The Jahan

We had a 7-day cruise on the Jahan Heritage Line.
Despite a few mix-ups with my original booking, she was always very helpful and answered any correspondence quickly.
The meals were amazing with excellent choices and presentation. All the staff were courteous and respectful, and we had a good rapport with a lot of them.
