About Mekong Eyes Explorer

Launched in 2016, Mekong Eyes Explorer is ideal for your journey in the tranquil Mekong River that links Southern Vietnam with Cambodia. The interior is designed in a colonial style, using local materials and handcrafted vintage decorations to provide the best overnight experience.

This 4-star boutique boat offers a 4-day trip to the most vibrant section of the Mekong River, where you can see the most interesting local's daily life. The cruise is designed to travel through the winding and narrow rivers and channels of the river system, which are inaccessible to bigger cruises. In that way, you can witness the hidden gem of the northern Mekong Delta.

We recently enjoyed a most luxurious and exciting trip on the Mekong River with Mekong Eyes. The meals on board were delicious and the cabins were immaculate. The manager also introduced us to local plants, people, foods, and customs on our visits to various attractions, which was very informative.

I chose to cruise from Phnom Penh to HCMC over the alternative of flying HCMC and driving to explore the Mekong Delta. More time to relax, but also more money.

A tranquil experience

A relaxing 3-night excursion on the Mekong Delta. The cuisine and hospitality on board were exceptional. The guide, Jonathan, could not have been more helpful and was more than eager to share his wide knowledge of the region and Vietnam with anybody who asked.
