Elevating the contemporary cruise experience, Mekong Kingdoms launches a new fleet of river cruises to traverse Southeast Asia’s famed Mekong River. Each boat is outfitted with exquisite Indochinese décor with modern amenities. With 13 cabins, the Bohème is the largest in the fleet and travels between the Lanna and Lan Xang Buddhist kingdoms. Other boats include the romantic Gypsy—a two-cabin cruiser—and the Nomad and Play, both suited for day trips and sunset voyages. Onboard activities include yoga, meditation and fishing, while land itineraries are completely customizable. The company’s expert guides recommend jungle treks, a visit to the famed Pak Ou limestone caves, and biking through ancient Laos among key activities.
