Mekong River Cruise 

From vibrant cities to charming riverside communities, bustling markets to the peaceful chanting of monks, there is something to captivate and excite you every day while on a Scenic river cruise along the Mekong River. Embark on a journey of contrasts as you gain a deeper understanding of the complex history in this region and be charmed by the friendly locals as they go about their lives along this magnificent waterway.

The fertile banks of the Mekong boast a kaleidoscope of colourful wildlife and captivating landmarks, where vibrant cities neighbour dense jungles of intriguing beauty. You’ll experience this exotic contrast first-hand with Scenic, as you take part in a host of special events which expose the heritage and culture of the Mekong’s timeless landscapes.

Thanks to the Scenic Freechoice and Scenic Enrich programmes, unearthing the wonders of the Mekong has never been more stimulating and authentic. Wake before sunrise and board a sampan to visit the famous Cai Be Floating wholesale market, before marvelling at the colonial architecture for which Vietnam is renowned. Explore the Tra Su Bird Sanctuary, an 850-hectare forest home to many of South East Asia’s rarest bird species. Or, travel by Tuk Tuk to an exclusive evening at the luxury Raffles Hotel, where a traditional Khmer orchestra provides the perfect accompaniment to an indulgent high tea experience.
