    Fantastic cruise up the Mekong. Made all the more special by such wonderful and diligent staff. Plenty of great excursions to surrounding islands. The guides were enthusiastic and informative. Even the 'sailing day' was packed with optional activities. We also loved our room and sitting on the balcony watching the countryside go by. Lotus Cruises went above and beyond with the cruise and it far exceeded our expectations. Thank you.

    Kevin

    Asked on April 5th, 2023

    Do you accommodate solo travelers or is there a supplement? Is it possible for 2 unrelated solo travelers to share a cabin?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Lotus CruisesOperatorWritten April 2023

      - There is a supplement for solo traveler (30% surcharge of double occupancy). - On our cruise, sharing a cabin is between related travelers (relatives, friends, acquaintances). It's better that you find someone to share a suite. - Our departure on 10 Dec 2023 are fully booked - We have a cruise on 17 Dec 2023 for solo travelers. With booking of 2 Signature suites (only applied for this type), there will be no supplement. - Please let us know the time possibilities when you can take the cruise (in which month(s), we will let you know our available cruises. - If supplement is an issue, can you consider cruises in low season?
