Is it possible to make this cruise in early January 2026, for example the 6th of January? And what are the cost for a signature suite? And can we fly with Turkish Air business?

Yes, we do have the cruise from 6–13 January 2026, sailing from Saigon to Siem Reap. The rate for a Signature Suite is USD 4,899 per person, based on double occupancy. This rate includes 7 nights onboard, all meals, and authentic local experiences along the Mekong River. Airfare is not included in the above rate. Would you like us to assist you with booking the flights as well?

We are looking to travel the Mekong river with children ages 6 & 9 and grandfather age 72. Please provide us with some ideas of cost and tours.

We're happy to let you know that the March 3 departure is available. We love having families on board. When 2 adults book a suite from the Signature category or higher, you'll receive 1 complimentary suite for 2 children.

Yes the price is per person and price for solo traveler is also shown. For this upstream cruise we are currently having Superior, Signature and Grande suites available. Please let me know your interest.

can you hold a couple rooms for me? When would a deposit need to be put down? What is the refund policy

I saw a price for $2505 listed. Can I get rooms for my wife and I as well as the solo person for that price?

Do you accommodate solo travelers or is there a supplement? Is it possible for 2 unrelated solo travelers to share a cabin?

- There is a supplement for solo traveler (30% surcharge of double occupancy). - On our cruise, sharing a cabin is between related travelers (relatives, friends, acquaintances). It's better that you find someone to share a suite. - Our departure on 10 Dec 2023 are fully booked - We have a cruise on 17 Dec 2023 for solo travelers. With booking of 2 Signature suites (only applied for this type), there will be no supplement. - Please let us know the time possibilities when you can take the cruise (in which month(s), we will let you know our available cruises. - If supplement is an issue, can you consider cruises in low season?

Looking at cruising second half 2023. Want to know if Covid vaccination is required to cruise or what are the requirements in this regard.

Regarding Covid vaccination, please be informed that vaccination certification is not required now. This new regulation came into effect by the end of November 2022.

Fantastic cruise up the Mekong. Made all the more special by such wonderful and diligent staff. Plenty of great excursions to surrounding islands. The guides were enthusiastic and informative. Even the 'sailing day' was packed with optional activities. We also loved our room and sitting on the balcony watching the countryside go by. Lotus Cruises went above and beyond with the cruise and it far exceeded our expectations. Thank you.Show more
