Wonders of Indochina and the Mekong

This extraordinary 16-day journey through historical Indochina begins in Ho Chi Minh City, also known as Saigon, Vietnam’s most dynamic and cosmopolitan city. From here, embark on your Emerald Harmony Star-Ship for an unforgettable 8-day river cruise along the Mekong, one of the world’s greatest waterways. As you meander through southern Vietnam’s Mekong Delta, witness up-close the traditional way of life along the riverbanks of this lush, intensely cultivated region. Continue cruising through rural southern Cambodia, before arriving in the capital, Phnom Penh, once the ‘Pearl of Asia’ and one of Indochina’s loveliest colonial-era cities, indelibly marked with momentous Khmer history. After your enthralling Mekong cruise ends in Cambodia’s historic capital, continue by road for a three-night stay in Siem Reap, your base to explore the magnificent ancient temples within World Heritage-listed, Angkor Archaeological Park and watch the sun rise over 12th century Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious site. Then take a flight further north for Laos, Southeast Asia’s hidden gem and fabled ‘Kingdom of a Million Elephants.’ Enjoy three nights in riverside Luang Prabang, the epicentre of Laotian culture and spirituality and an enchanting former royal capital, before flying to Thailand and its vibrant capital, Bangkok, where your amazing Southeast Asian journey concludes.
