Luxury Mekong Journeys Across Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos
Scenic Spirit’s itineraries along the Mekong River offer a journey through Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, combining luxury, cultural immersion, and historical discovery. Beyond the luxury of Scenic Spirit, there are more unforgettable places to explore in Southeast Asia with Scenic. All Mekong journeys can be combined with extensions and stopovers, allowing stays to be extended for unique encounters in Vietnam and extra time to admire the region’s spectacular landscapes, or to add stopovers en route to or from the river cruise to visit another country within the same itinerary. The transition from ship to shore is seamless, with stays in exceptional accommodation, accompanied by a Scenic Tour Director and expert local guides.
Travellers with a passion for history and iconic landmarks will be captivated by Siem Reap, home to the magnificent Angkor Wat and surrounding Khmer ruins. The vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City, where ornate temples and pagodas sit
alongside sparkling skyscrapers, provides a fascinating mix of culture and cuisine – from bustling markets and traditional street food to rooftop bars and fine dining. Siem Reap and Ho Chi Minh City are featured on all Scenic journeys.
Meanwhile, the riverside town of Hoi An enchants visitors with its Chinese temples, Japanese-covered bridge, colourful shop-houses, French-colonial architecture, and lantern-lit evenings. This destination is recommended on the Grand Indochina & Luxury Mekong or Essence of Vietnam, Cambodia & Luxury Mekong journeys. Hue, the former imperial capital, transports travellers to the glories of Vietnam’s dynastic era through its Imperial Citadel and royal tombs, included on the same two longer itineraries.
Hanoi, one of the world’s oldest capitals, invites exploration of the historic Old Quarter and elegant French Quarter. The spectacular Halong Bay, with its 1,600 limestone karsts rising from emerald waters, is explored during two serene nights
aboard the luxurious Bhaya Soul cruise. Both destinations are featured on the Highlights of Vietnam, Cambodia & Luxury Mekong, Grand Indochina & Luxury Mekong, and Essence of Vietnam, Cambodia & Luxury Mekong journeys.
Meanwhile, peaceful Luang Prabang, a UNESCO World Heritage city rich in Buddhist heritage and French colonial traces, is recommended on the Grand Indochina & Luxury Mekong or Journey along the Mekong itineraries.
Guests can personalise their Mekong journey with Scenic Freechoice excursions, from private guided explorations of Hanoi’s history to an authentic Saigon food tour on a vintage Vespa. For more exclusive moments, Scenic Enrich experiences provide behind-the-scenes access, such as a gala dinner at an Angkor temple or private backstage access to Hanoi’s Water Puppet performance.
Travelling during the Green Season (July to September) offers several advantages: lush rice fields, refreshed landscapes, and higher water levels create a stunning backdrop, while brief afternoon showers add to the countryside’s charm without
interrupting the adventures. During this season, 9-night Scenic Spirit cruises combine luxury, culture, and authentic local encounters, ensuring an unforgettable Mekong journey.
