The Aqua Mekong, built in 2014, is a luxurious river cruise ship that travels the Mekong River between Vietnam’s Mekong Delta and Cambodia. It accommodates up to 40 guests in 20 stylish suites. Onboard, you’ll find indoor and outdoor bars, cozy lounge and dining areas, a small pool, an outdoor movie theater, a screening room, an observation deck, a fitness center, a spa, and a boutique.

Welcome Aboard

Our crew gives you a warm welcome and excellent service throughout your Aqua Mekong Cruise. With a one-to-one staff-to-guest ratio, you’ll be well taken care of. The 40 crew members include a cruise director, a paramedic, and four English-speaking guides who lead daily trips into the Mekong’s tributaries and cultural sites like Khmer pottery villages and Phnom Penh.

The Aqua Mekong has 320-square-foot, air-conditioned suites spread over two decks, designed with local materials and modern comforts. Each suite has a king-size bed (convertible to twins), a sitting area, and a bathroom with a walk-in rain shower. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer great views of the Mekong. Eight suites have a balcony with a table for two. Four interconnecting suites are ideal for families.

Life On Board

On board, you’ll enjoy upscale dining with an Asian-inspired menu by Michelin-starred chef David Thompson, using fresh local ingredients. The ship also has a great cocktail menu.

For entertainment, there’s a movie screening room and a library/games room. Stay fit in the gym with river views, shop for handmade souvenirs, or relax in the spa. A health officer is on hand for any needs. The ship uses modern navigation and has a skilled crew for safety.

The air-conditioned Observation Deck offers great views of villages, colonial buildings, and temples. Relax on sun loungers, enjoy drinks from the Rooftop Bar, or swim in the infinity pool. The Outdoor Lounge becomes a movie theater at night, while the Indoor Lounge hosts talks on ecology and culture.

Land & Water-Based Activities

Along with sightseeing, you can enjoy daily activities like cycling, kayaking, swimming, and guided meditation at sunrise. Ten bicycles are available for independent exploration on land.

Ideal for couples, families, and friends, a cruise on the Aqua Mekong offers a cultural adventure through lush forests, bamboo villages accessible only by boat, and visits to important temples and traditional villages.

Our 2-week trip to Thailand was fantastic! Chiang Mai felt completely magical and Koh Samui was beautiful. We managed to have fun even on the rainy days. Our guides were perfect, very knowledgeable and a lot of fun, with great insights into the local culture. I've been recommending Absolute Asia Tours to all my friends and I can't wait to travel with you guys again! The coordination of everything was very well done.

Our recent trip to China and Mongolia was a great success. Overall we found Absolute Asia Tours services to be excellent throughout the two weeks we were in Asia. For us, Mongolia was definitely the highlight. We thoroughly enjoyed or local guides and drives and they were unfailingly knowledgeable, helpful and amusing. Their languages skills were excellent and we felt that we recieved real insight into this fascinating country. We were intinially drawn to the idea of this trip by the reports of the world class fihing and we were absolutely not disappointed. The fishing guide was first rate and we caught more fish than we could have hoped for - more than 25 each day - with the added bonus of being the only other people in sight for miles arround. AAT created a private ger camp for us on the Onon River and we enjoyed delicious food prepared by our chef in a beautiful unspoled atmosphere. They alo arranged for us to visit a nomadic family and spend time with them at home and organized a dinner with an anthropologist with expert knowledge of the region. AAT fullfilled their promise to tkae us to us to one of the world's best fishing destinations in comfort and style. We would be happy to travel with AAT again and will definitely recommend them to our friends.

We've had two "A+" experience with Absolute Asia Tours. It is a pleasure to work with an organization where I feel confident that what you say will happen, happens. This was true with our complicated China itinerary six years ago, and was true with our recent itinerary in Vietnam. your on the ground guides and logistics were top - notch, and I would recommend you to anyone to visit Asia.

Absolute Asia tours gave us a wonderful tour of Southeast Asia (working with sister-agency My Way Travel based in Vietnam). For our Siem Reap/Angkor Wat journey, our party of two had a private driver and guide named Jak, who was a cheerful and knowledgeable companion, explaining the history, culture, architecture and religious significance of the sites while keeping it always fun. We moved efficiently from site to site, and finished with a boat tour of the fishing village on stilts at Kampong Pluk on the Tonle Sap Lake. During most of our trip we stayed at top-notch locally-owned hotels, but in Siem Reap we were at the excellent local Hyatt hotel. Absolute Asia and My Way Travel our outstanding local providers, less expensive than name-brand group tours, and customized to our interests and schedule.
