The Victoria Mekong

All aboard: Victoria Mekong

Launched in December 2019, the 4 star Victoria Mekong is a fresh, contemporary river vessel with four spacious passenger decks, offering a peaceful, premium small-ship experience between Vietnam and Cambodia.

YOUR STATEROOM

The Victoria Mekong boasts some of the most spacious cabins on the Mekong Delta, all outward-facing with private balconies. Her 33 en-suite staterooms, each 269ft2, are spread across the River and Panorama decks, along with two aft-facing VIP suites (484ft2) at the rear of the Panorama deck. Cabins can be booked as twin or double beds, and feature rain showers, hair dryers, individually controlled AC and French windows onto the balcony.

FACILITIES ON BOARD

The Victoria Mekong was designed with relaxation in mind. Guests are invited to soak up the sun in the outdoor infinity pool, try their hand on the mini-golf green, watch films or documentaries in the on-board cinema, enjoy a treatment at the Green Lotus Spa, or enjoy the daily activities held in the Lounge Bar. For those who simply wish to relax, sun loungers and parasols are available on the Sky Deck, while books and games are available to borrow from the library. Where possible, the Captain is pleased to invite guests to visit the bridge.

WINE & DINE

The Claypot Restaurant, located on the Panorama deck, is an airy, spacious venue with large bay windows offering 180-degree river views, along with a terrace for al fresco dining. All meals are included; cuisine varies in theme each night, with set menus available at dinner. Asian hospitality is widely regarded as some of the best in the world, and the Victoria Mekong is no exception. House wine is complimentary with dinner, along with a daily sunset cocktail and free-flow soft drinks and beer. Additional snacks and spirits are available from the Lounge Bar.

YOUR JOURNEY

The Mekong is the seventh longest river in all of Asia, and the twelfth longest in the world. Stretching 2,700 miles from China across the Tibetan Plateau and through Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam, it empties into the South China Sea south of Saigon. It is the lifeblood of Southeast Asia, and many centuries of cultural, economic and political history have played out on its banks. The Victoria Mekong sails weekly between the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh and the Vietnamese town of Can Tho in the Mekong Delta. Her three-night downstream itinerary sails from Sisowath Quay in Phnom Penh and calls at Tan Chau, Long Xuyen and Tan Loc Island, with excursions to historic houses, a plum wine distillery, the ethnology museum and a floating market. Those joining the four-night upstream sailings from Can Tho will call at Long Xuyen, Tan Chau and Tiger Island for excursions to a silk village, floating market, the museum and local pagoda. Guests on both itineraries will enjoy nightly evening entertainment on board, ranging from Cambodian Apsara performances to traditional Mekong folk music and even a mischievous lion dance on the sun deck. Onboard activities range from mini-golf to cocktail-making competitions, destination presentations and film nights. SKY DECK
