1
After being welcomed and driven to your hotel upon arrival in Ho Chi Minh City, you may spend the remainder of the day relaxing.
-
2
Explore this city at the intersection of East and West; walk along the broad boulevards dotted with charming colonial buildings before heading into Cholon’s busy Chinatown neighborhood. This afternoon, drive out of Ho Chi Minh City and stop at the famous Cu Chi tunnels. Originally constructed during the French-American Wars, the Viet Cong utilized the network of complex passageways against the Americans with disastrous results.
-
3
After leaving the city today, you set off on an overnight cruise through the picturesque and verdant Mekong Delta, where you will discover the workings of the ‘Nine Dragon River’.
-
4
This morning, you wake up and have breakfast while floating toward the well-known Cai Rang floating markets. Around lunchtime, disembark and make your way to your hotel in Can Tho, the biggest town in the Delta. You will go on a bike tour of the charming backwater streets once you have settled up.
-
5
You will go today to the border town of Chau Doc, which is a charming location along the Mekong River.
-
6
Today, depart from Vietnam and travel by speedboat over the Mekong River into Cambodia. Once in Cambodia, you arrive at the vibrant waterfront of the country’s capital, Phnom Penh.
-
7
The all-day city trip includes stops at the Grand Palace to learn about Phnom Penh’s ancient past, the Killing Fields, and the notorious S-21 jail to learn about its violent, more recent history. Audley says the Friends restaurant in the city center is an excellent location to stop and have lunch.
-
8
Fly north from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, the location of the historic Angkor temples. You’ll watch the grandest temple, Angkor Wat, come to life this afternoon when the sun sets.
-
9
Getting an early start today is the only way to ensure you see the breathtaking colors of the Khmer morning surrounded by the crumbling, jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm. You’ll have the place to yourself in the morning, and Ta Prohm seems even more gloomy with the mist rising from this ancient ruin. You return to the site later in the day to explore the other temples on the main complex.
-
10
Explore the historically significant but often ignored sites of Banteay Srei and Banteay Samre by venturing outside of the main complex.
-
11
You depart from Siem Reap today for the enormous Tonle Sap, Southeast Asia’s biggest lake. The lake is vital to the nation, and thousands of people live in the many floating communities around it. Tonle Sap is also home to some uncommon bird species.
-
12
Before your flight, you have the most of the day to yourself to explore as you choose or just unwind at your hotel.

What our clients say about us
Cynthia K
12 March 2025 ★★★★★My husband and I, along with five friends, thoroughly enjoyed our Heritage Line The Jahan Mekong River Cruise from Siem Reap to Saigon. The food was out of this world. I have celiac disease and Heritage Line knows how to take extra care with food preparation to keep people safe. Our outstanding travel agent set everything up for us, answered all of our questions and checked on us frequently. I highly recommend Heritage Line The Jahan and I highly recommend booking this unforgettable journey through a trusted travel advisor.

8 January 2025 ★★★★★The entire crew was personable. Special shout outs to the Aqua Mekong cruise director and housekeeping manager. Rooms were clean. Food options were always delicious plus there was no way to ever be hungry! One of our group had dietary restrictions and there were always choices that worked. Evening entertainment was great and every night was something different. We did the Mekong River cruise so the daily excursions included time in local villages, markets, and cultural sites. We all had fun and appreciated the small ship experience.

17 April 2025 ★★★★★We went on a 7 day Mekong River cruise on the La Marguerite ship. Our twin room on the lower level was very nice, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Housekeeping twice a day with turndown service was fantastic. Dining was spectacular with buffet and menu choices, and the special dinner was magnificent. Each day the menus reflected local Mekong flavors. Service was extraordinarily good. Every evening a complimentary happy hour was offered, and the staff were always attentive. My traveling companion was gluten free and had many wonderful options at each meal. Excursions were very good, with gentle or more active tour choices and excellent local guides. This was one of the best cruise experiences I’ve ever had!

22 May 2025 ★★★★★The Jayavarman cruise was simply outstanding. Our tour director was on point at every turn, with clear instructions and follow-through every step of the way. The food was delicious, the wine and drinks were abundant, and the living quarters were attractive and clean. The day excursions were divided into more difficult, regular, and easy so everyone got to select their pace. This was our first true river cruise and we enjoyed every single moment of it.

12 February 2026 ★★★★★Lovely cruise down the Mekong on Pandaw. Crew were very friendly, food was great, loved all the drinks and atmosphere on board. Loads of guided tours available and we visited some lovely places along the river. Very smooth journey with only slight changes due to river conditions, all handled perfectly by the crew whilst we were whisked off on an excursion. Great evening entertainment and our boat had a wonderful traditional charm throughout. Would definitely recommend.
