What our guests say
Having just returned from a 7 day cruise on the Victoria Mekong we have nothing but praise for the beautiful ship, absolutely amazing and attentive staff and the spacious cabins. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the delightful staff who went out of their way to assist with any queries or requests we may have had. They made us feel like family. The 6.00pm cocktails were awesome as was the food, all beautifully prepared, and the cleanliness of our cabin, and the entire ship – nothing could be faulted.
I’d give 10 stars if it were an option. Number one STAFF for sure, food was amazing and lots of options and chefs to cook just about anything you want. LOVED our room, we were on the middle deck, and it was perfect. Got the best massages and pedicure while on board. The cruise director(s) were unbelievable and not sure they slept. 100% pampered and catered to for a week. We went end of Jan early Feb. Each day’s excursion was so Fun and Informative, I learned so much. The people we met were the salt of the earth in my opinion. Worth every minute and every penny. Can’t say enough good things about it, but by now, everyone has figured that out. Cheers and happy boating.
It was great to experience Victoria Mekong Cruise. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The manager, Mr. Nghĩa and the Chief Purse Mr. Nam were very kind. The overall of the boat was beautiful with a infinity jacuzzi pools, nice restaurant, spacious bar, cinema, GYM, Lion Dance, Don Ca Tai Tu folk music… We experienced places such as: Khmer Clay Stove/pot craft village, Ong Ho Islet, Floating Market…. Tour guide Thinh was very knowledgeable, fun and lovely. Room was great, everything was clean, very comfortable and well organized. I was very impressed with the Farewell dinner of the crew. The food was fabulous.
My husband and I were on a 7-day cruise from Siem Reap, Cambodia to Can Tho, Vietnam. The ship was fabulous and excellent in every way (large cabin and bathroom). The Cruise Director (Nam) and Crew were professional, efficient, and friendly. After a few days they remembered what drinks and food we liked. The food was delicious and there were many choices. We had a great time on the ship and the Mekong cruise was relaxing and interesting.
This was such a wonderful time. The Captain and crew sailed the boat perfectly and sailing times were such as to not disturb passengers. The Chief Purser, Nam, was an exceptional host as were all his staff. The cabins were a good size and comfortable. The food was always tasty with plenty of variety. The guides were excellent in explanations on the tours. Entertainment on board was themed on the cultures of Vietnam and Cambodia. I would have no hesitation in recommending this tour on the Mekong.
