What Makes Mekong Princess a Compelling Choice for Discerning Travelers
For travelers who value meaningful experiences, cultural richness, and refined comfort, the Mekong Princess offers an exceptional journey through Southeast Asia’s most storied river. Operated by Viet Princess Cruiser Corporation, this Mekong River cruise has earned the TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice Award for 2025, marking its third consecutive win and placing it among the top 10% of travel experiences worldwide.
An Intimate and Exclusive Voyage
With just 14 suites and a maximum of 28 guests, Mekong Princess redefines luxury cruising in the mighty Mekong. Each suite features floor-to-ceiling windows and elegant furnishings, offering an ever-changing view of the river. Whether soaking in your bath or enjoying a quiet moment on deck, the Mekong is always close - calm, timeless, and unforgettable.
Guests also enjoy a highly personalized experience that begins directly in Ho Chi Minh City, avoiding long transfers and immersing you in the river’s rhythm from the very start. The boutique vessel’s size allows it to explore smaller, less-traveled tributaries, reaching floating markets, rural villages, and hidden corners of the Mekong Delta that larger vessels cannot access.
Cultural Immersion with Purpose
Life onboard the Mekong Princess is as rich as the landscapes that surround it. Days are filled with curated cultural programs, including traditional Cambodian Apsara dance, insightful talks on regional history, and hands-on workshops with local artisans. The culinary experience is equally rooted in authenticity, with menus showcasing the best of Vietnamese and Cambodian cuisine, prepared with locally sourced ingredients. The ship also supports local communities, including a Cambodian orphanage that trains children in traditional arts, ensuring your journey has a lasting, positive impact.

Mekong Princess embraces a philosophy of responsible travel. Sustainability isn’t an afterthought; it’s embedded in the ship’s design and daily operations. From plastic-free policies to locally sourced ingredients and thoughtful excursions, every aspect of Mekong Princess is crafted with the environment and local culture in mind.
This thoughtful approach extends to the staff, too. The dedicated crew, many of whom hail from the very regions you’ll explore, bring a warmth and professionalism that transforms service into genuine connection. It’s no wonder so many travelers return again and again or recommend Mekong Princess to their most discerning friends.
In a world where travel is increasingly fast-paced and impersonal, the Mekong Princess offers a gentle reminder that slowing down can reveal more. Whether it’s your first time in the region or your fifth, this lovely cruise invites you to travel more deeply, more personally, and more meaningfully.
