One of the best ways to enjoy Cambodia is to journey down the Mekong River, passing lush green vegetation, fishermen casting their nets and children playing in the shallows.

Possibly the most scenic river in Asia with small towns along its fertile banks and floating markets along its length, an Audley cruise along part of it is a good launching point for excursions into this captivating country.

Cruise lengths

There are several cruise length options: from one night on the boat, to a longer seven to ten night cruise. The route down the Mekong goes from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap to Phnom Penh and then on to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam on the ten-night voyages.

There will be opportunities to get off the boat on occasion, particularly on the longer voyages. These off-boat excursions tend to be to traditional villages around the Mekong Delta area.

These cruises are geared more toward couples rather than families, insofar as younger children might get bored, particularly on the longer trips.

When to travel?

We recommend cruising on the Mekong between November and February. After February, up until April, the water level is too low around Siem Reap to allow boats to travel so we do not recommend cruising at this time.
