If you’re a traveler with a taste for luxury and a sense of adventure, here’s an experience designed to inspire and leave you with unforgettable memories: a Scenic Luxury Cruises and Tours journey along the breathtaking Mekong River.
Picture yourself gliding through the heart of Southeast Asia aboard the elegant Spirit river ship, an intimate vessel accommodating just 68 guests. With a dedicated crew of 57 offering exceptional service, including personalized butler care, this isn’t just a cruise—it’s a meticulously crafted VIP experience where every detail is designed for your ultimate comfort.
A Perfect Fusion of Adventure and Comfort
Your journey begins in the vibrant streets of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and culminates in the captivating landscapes of Siem Reap, Cambodia. Along the way, you’ll explore ancient temples entwined with jungle vines, visit bustling floating villages, and encounter serene monasteries, creating an experience that feels straight out of an adventure movie.
Engage with the culture through immersive excursions—read with schoolchildren eager to practice English, receive blessings from monks, and float through colorful local markets. These moments go beyond mere sightseeing, connecting you to the vibrant life and soul of the region.
Luxury Beyond the Shore
The experience doesn’t end when the river voyage concludes. A three-night stay at the legendary Raffles Grand d’Angkor takes this journey to the next level. Imagine sipping champagne at sunrise as Angkor Wat glows in the early morning light or attending an exclusive gala dinner in the shadow of an ancient temple.
Onboard Elegance and Relaxation
Between excursions, the Spirit offers a sanctuary of sophistication. Lounge on the top deck, taking in panoramic views of lush greenery, or enjoy the aft pool’s serene atmosphere. Your stateroom is a private retreat, featuring elegant hardwood accents, adjustable beds, motorized drop-down windows, and enclosed glass balconies that let you dine with a view.
The dining experience onboard is equally extraordinary, with regional specialties and adventurous options like crickets and silk worms for the daring palate. And with round-the-clock snacks and room service, indulgence is always at your fingertips.
Effortless Travel, Unforgettable Memories
Navigating this region can seem complex, but Scenic takes care of every detail, from handling visas to organizing expertly guided tours. All you need to do is immerse yourself in the experience, making this one of the most seamless ways to explore Vietnam and Cambodia.
