Amazing service level and accomodation - but maybe for the future

Review for a Asia River Cruise on Viking Saigon

We retired early and have been traveling almost non-stop - averaging about one trip a month. We have broken down our future plans into three buckets. The Go Go Years, the Slow Go years and the No Go years. We are still in the first bucket, and hope to be there for many years yet. This Viking cruise was an experiment for us to see which bucket these vacations would fall into. The ship was ...

We wanted to learn more about the history of Vietnam and Cambodia. Our guide Lee was the best! He shared his personal stories, which added so much depth. Lee was always attentive and caring to our group’s needs. Always very organized. We were so lucky Lee was our guide. In general, the ship was beautiful and new. The staff were wonderful and friendly. Somehow the desk staff knew all our names ...

I was more than happy to avoid this part of the world when I had to chance to see it in 1968, but after a half-century has passed and we've all patched up our differences, I got curious. I felt like I should see it for myself and try to understand the people there and their history. Viking river cruises offered exactly what I wanted--direct, in-depth introduction to the place, the people and their ...

I had served in Viet Nam in 1969-70, so I wanted to return and see the country. We started our trip in Hanoi, so it was very strange to be up where our “enemies” lived. The people were great! The history, as the communist country of Viet Nam depicted, was tainted to make them as being very gracious to our soldiers while they were there in prison at the Hanoi Hilton. Getting past ...

This has definitely been one of our best cruises. We totally love cruising with Viking. The Viking Saigon is a beautiful new ship. The crew members and staff were excellent. They went out of their way to help us. UT was our program director. He has been the best one we have ever had on Viking Cruises. He went out of his way to make everyone’s trip memorable and enjoyable. Most of us were older and ...

"Magnificent Mekong" lives up to its name--plus some

We booked this cruise, in part, to see a part of the world that was unfamiliar to us, yet a part of our lives growing up--the Vietnam War and the Cambodian genocide in particular. We added both the Ha Long Bay and Bangkok extensions and are so glad we did. Ha Long bay is an other-worldly UNESCO site that will leave you speechless, and Bangkok (with the Chinatown and street food excursion on the ...

Asia had been on my bucket list for 20 years. The original plan was to travel in 2020 just as the Covid-19 pandemic hit so the trip was postponed 3 times. We finally decided on the Magnificent Mekong Tour since it covered 3 countries: Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. We did take advantage of both the pre-cruise extension to Ha Long Bay and the post-cruise extension to Bangkok. Viking does a ...

Trip of a lifetime on the Mekong River with Ama Waterways (and with the pre and post cruise land portions)

This was our second cruise with Ama Waterways (after an amazing Danube experience) and we weren't sure if they could maintain the standard. Not only did they meet, but they far exceeded all our expectations. We had booked airport transfers, the pre and post cruise portions along with the 7 day "Riches of the Mekong". If you don't take advantage of the land portions, you're missing out. We felt ...

Wonderful visit to Viet Nam, Cambodia and Thailand

We were able to visit all views of the countries - the large cities, the small towns and the small villages. It was a broad-brush view of Asian countries. To see the "Hanoi Hilton" in person was very moving. The temples in Cambodia, Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm and others were especially good. And for us who were somewhat unstable, the Tuk-Tuk driver helped. The use of Tul-Tuks was a great ...

We have been on a number of Viking cruises, most of them ocean cruises. We did this trip primarily to visit Angkor Wat and experience the newly launched Viking Saigon on the MeKong River. This was hands down the most educational trip we’ve ever taken. The Program Directors and local guides were fantastic, both in the land-based part of the trip and on the river. The time spent in both Hanoi ...
