If you’re looking for a holiday that will truly allow you to switch off than we can highly recommend a Mekong River Cruise with Pandaw. Pandaw River Cruises were the first ones to offer modern river cruise holidays on the Mekong. They are by far the most experienced Mekong river cruise operators currently sailing on the Mekong.
On a Pandaw Mekong River Cruise, you are encouraged to let things go and use your precious time off to relax and unwind. There is nothing better than to be sitting on the open deck of a river cruise ship travelling slowly, listening to the sounds of nature, watching light play on the water and seeing life on the shores slip by.
Beautiful, colonially styled ships offer only 48 guests in total a cultural experience not to be rivalled. Families are also welcome with children sailing free on selected dates.

Holidaymakers who have spent time on a Mekong river cruise ship always tell us that even though all of the excursions, lectures and films are very interesting and enjoyable, most of them are quite happy to watch the world drift past, picking up a book while drinking a delicious cocktail. The Mekong delta is habitat to diverse wildlife and birdlife and being able to view at such close distance makes a Pandaw Mekong cruise unique.
The RV Mekong Pandaw has been built for optimum viewing. The entire top deck of the RV Mekong Pandaw is a wide, open veranda, shaded by large awnings, so you feel to be part of the landscape as it rolls by. Built in traditional style, the ship has varnished teak decks, white rails, wicker sofas and chairs, potted plants and 24 en-suite wood-panelled cabins with shuttered doors opening onto river views. For modern comfort there are also sun loungers, mosquito screens, and – when air con is necessary – glass doors to cabins and dining room.
Currently, Pandaw offers a very attractive 15-day Mekong River Cruise holiday ‘Mekong cruise with Siem Reap & Ho Chi Minh’ in 2020 starting from £3,599 per person which includes return long-haul flights from the UK as well as:
3 nights 5* hotel in Siem Reap with breakfast
7 nights luxury accommodation in an outside stateroom on a Pandaw Mekong Cruise with all meals
2 nights in a 5* hotel in Ho Chi Minh with breakfast
All overseas airport transfers
Private car, driver and guide on excursions
All shore excursions
Why choose the Pandaw Mekong River Cruise holiday?
The Pandaw experience is all about exploring remote and often hard to navigate rivers and coasts in specially designed luxury small ships. Due to the RV Mekong Pandaw’s size, the atmosphere is very informal and friendly. Pandaw offers you the chance to take a closer look at the rich culture and mesmerising landscapes of Vietnam and Cambodia while at the same time putting your feet up and enable you to truly unwind.

About Christine Foulds
I’m originally from Germany and traveling has always been a part of my family’s DNA. Over the past 20 years, I’ve lived and worked in 5 different countries (USA, Austria, Russia, Peru and the UK) and learnt to speak 3 foreign languages (Russian and Spanish are getting a bit rusty though). I thoroughly enjoy working with travel enthusiasts who like to explore and visit new parts of the world as much as I do.
