    Excellent, not a day at the beach tour. A fully immersive experience to the cultures along the southern Mekong. Ankgor was amazing. Consider adding extra leg to northern coast.

    Why is this so expensive?

    Price / Availability
    • Avalon WaterwaysOperatorWritten March 2025

      Avalon is a premium cruise operator and offers service that is unparalleled in the market. But not to worry we work with a lot of cruise operators. If you could let us know your budget, we could find an alternative cruise for you that does the Mekong.

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      I was thinking like $6,000 US for two persons, one cabin with a queen bed.
