RV Mekong Princess Review
Review of RV Mekong Princess
RV Mekong Princess cruise ship is an excellent riverboat choice for world-class travelers who wish to experience Mekong River cruising in Cambodia and Vietnam aboard a top-luxury yet affordable vessel.
The Mekong Princess riverboat features 12 suites that combine French colonial style with the comfort of an exclusive Southeast Asian spa. Modern conveniences rival those of the finest hotels. The well-appointed suites offer individual climate control, premium mattresses, duvets, fine bed linens, a choice of pillows, nightly turndown service, and daily butler service. Specially selected spa bath amenities are provided for guests’ comfort and convenience. Each suite is equipped with a smart HDTV with satellite reception and Internet (on-demand media/infotainment system), offering classic, popular, and destination-related movies. International print news is delivered daily.

The indoor Ramvong Lounge is located aft on the Bassac Deck. Together with the outdoor Observation Deck, it is ideal for relaxing with a cup of coffee or a cocktail. The lounge’s sumptuous furnishings invite guests to sink into an overstuffed sofa while listening to lectures by local guides, watching movies, sampling local spirits, or simply enjoying the passing scenery in a temperature-controlled environment. Local entertainment may be offered on selected evenings.
Breakfast and lunch on the riverboat are served buffet-style, featuring a variety of Asian and Western dishes. Multi-course dinners are paired with wine and include a selection of healthy local specialties as well as Western favorites.
The Princess Fitness Center onboard RV Mekong Princess offers modern equipment in a cozy setting with floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing passengers to exercise while enjoying panoramic views of the Mekong River. Daily Tai Chi, yoga, and meditation classes are held either in the gym or on the ship’s Bassac Deck. Each guest receives one complimentary one-hour spa treatment at the Princess Spa on the Mekong Deck during the cruise.
The onboard currency is USD ($), though Vietnamese Dong is also accepted. English is the official language onboard, and daily shore excursions with English-speaking guides at each destination are included in the cruise program.
Laptops and mobile phones function along the entire route, although international communications can be expensive. In case of emergency, guests may use the ship’s phone. Wi-Fi is available in the Main Lounge and the library.
