UK firm launches new cruise linking Cambodia, Vietnam

[geovalin]

Leading tour specialist Wendy Wu Tours last week officially launched a new cruise service linking Can Tho, in southern Vietnam’s Mekong Delta region, with Phnom Penh. The route will be serviced by the Victoria Mekong, a 35-cabin, four-star cruise ship.

 

The ship has a 360-degree-view restaurant on the upper deck as well as shopping stores, spas, libraries, and cinemas, according to a statement from Wendy Wu. The Victoria Mekong cruise ship is a joint venture between Vietnam-based Thien Minh Group and Wendy Wu Tours, the UK’s leading Asia tour specialist.

 

A 3-4 night tour begins at about $906, which includes meals and beverages onboard. The company said a cruise from Vietnam to Cambodia is the best way to see the cultural diversity between the two countries. “River cruises – rather than land tours – are quickly gaining popularity among foreign tourists.”
