A journey of culture, colour and contrast on the Mekong
Vietnam, Cambodia
Cruising the Mekong feels like stopping into another world.
This mighty river pulses through Cambodia and Vietnam, offering a rich blend of traditional life and vibrant culture.
You’ll float past stilt houses and floating markets, visit golden temples and meet locals who still fish, farm and trade just as they have for generations.
It’s immersive, intimate and packed with pinch-me moments, especially if you pair it with time in Ho Chi Minh City or the temples of Angkor.
Turn your travel dreams into a reality, and start planning a trip to Vietnam or Cambodia. Explore our latest holiday or cruise deals here, or speak to your local House of Travel friendly travel expert today and get ready to experience life on the river.
