What to expect from Victoria Mekong
Overview
Launched in 2019, the 252-foot Victoria Mekong is one of the region’s newest and greenest ships on the river. While our destinations boast ancient history, our state-of-the-art ship offers a chic and luxurious river cruise experience.
With a maximum of just 70 guests the atmosphere on board is friendly and intimate - and with a guest-crew ratio of 2:1, you know you'll enjoy impeccable, personal service. Life on board the Victoria Mekong is never boring. In fact, you’ll wonder how to fit everything in! From spa treatments and a game of mini-golf on the Sky deck to kicking up your feet in the state-of-the-art cinema and cocktails with newfound friends in the Horizon lounge bar on the Sun deck, there's plenty to keep you entertained as we cruise along the Mekong.
Savour the complete dining experience at the Claypot Restaurant on the Panorama deck. With its expansive bay windows offering breathtaking river views, the option to dine on the Terrace, and a mix of international and local dishes designed by the ship’s Executive Chef, each night offers an engaging dining experience - including an interactive dining experience.
Please note: Riviera Travel has an allocation of cabins on board. There will therefore be other guests from other operators also travelling on each sailing.

Gratuities
If you would like to tip the staff, a good guideline is to give €8-12 per person per day should you feel that is appropriate.
If you do choose to give a gratuity, there will usually be an envelope is left in your cabin on the final evening. This is for you to be able include any tips, and you can then drop it off at reception the following morning. The tips are divided equally between the crew.
Should you also wish to give a gratuity directly to your Riviera Travel Cruise Director and Concierge, this is also at your discretion.
Entertainment
You'll likely spend most of your downtime on the Sun deck. The Horizon Lounge Bar is the social hub of the ship, where you'll meet with your fellow guests for evening signature cocktails as the sun sets and return to after dinner for authentic onboard music and dance performances (and a digestif or two).
There's plenty to entertain on the Sun deck with a library full of books, a state-of-the-art cinema room and a games room. And, for those with boundless energy, there's a gym.
The outdoor area on the Sun deck is home to seating and sun loungers as well as a raised infinity pool - the perfect place to cool down in the mid-day heat - and a pool bar.
Sky Deck
While sailing, why not enjoy a round of mini golf on the Sky deck with newfound friends? Or simply relax on a sun lounger, perhaps with that book you've been meaning to read or take in the sweeping, uninterrupted views of the riverbanks with a cocktail.

Enrichment
We are a well-travelled collective - made up of our guests as well as our team. We'll admit it - we're obsessed with travel.

Most days are filled with full or half-day excursions. Whether that's a city tour, an introduction to a brand-new town or a more in-depth visit to a specific landmark or attraction. You'll see the very best of every destination. Not just the legendary locations, we'll uncover the top-secret local spots too.
Excursions
Experience the best of this fascinating river. Explore temples, meander through bustling markets, and observe local life along this historic waterway. Stop at some less visited (but equally intriguing) ports and enjoy an authentic look into life in the rural villages of the Mekong.
While sailing, you can unwind on one of the region’s newest and greenest ships, Victoria Mekong. Watch the picturesque landscape glide by from the upper deck or your own private balcony - every cabin’s got one! And make the most of the superb amenities, such as the outdoor pool and pool bar, as well as the state-of-the-art cinema.
During our time on land, we'll explore the vibrant cities of Saigon and Siem Reap, where we'll visit the ancient temples of Angkor and enjoy all the sightseeing opportunities they have to offer.
