Tour Information & Itinerary

The Mekong Princess short cruises let you sail part of the Saigon – Siem Reap route on an all-suite luxury ship. The most popular is the 6-day, 5-night Phnom Penh to Saigon cruise: board in Phnom Penh on a Saturday, cross into Vietnam by river, visit Hong Ngu, Gieng Island, Hoa An, Can Tho and the Cai Rang floating market and Ben Tre, and arrive in Saigon on Thursday morning. Shorter 3–5 day segments are also available. The ship has only 14 suites for 28 guests; meals, local drinks, excursions and gratuities are included. Prices start from US$2,023 per person, twin share, for the 6-day cruise.

Good to know (October 2026): short cruises of 2, 3 and 4 nights are only released 30–45 days before departure, depending on availability on the full 8-day sailing – tell us your dates early and we will hold them on request. On the Phnom Penh – Saigon cruise you enter Vietnam by river, so you need your Vietnam e-visa before boarding. Cruise code VTE-MP6.

  • Gratuities, minibar and local drinks included, plus the Princess Spa and a fitness centre on board.
