1. The journey on the Mekong River with
Mekong Cruises
The upper Mekong, people say, is one of the most difficult rivers in the world to navigate. Your
comfortable cruise ship Mekong Sun masters tight gorges, labyrinths of sandbanks and mounts violent
chutes. Water levels are prone to drop about 2 m overnight. On this part of the Mekong quiet and calm
parts of the river alternate with most dramatic and exciting shore sceneries: Tropical lush green
mountains, impressive rock formations and secluded villages along the river banks.

2. The
refore, many tourist boat agencies operating on Mekong River is planning to increase the number of
ships and trips along this river in 2012. Example from Vietnam Paradise Travel Company, one of
suppliers for travelling boat along Mekong River, this company provided tours from Ho Chi Minh City to
Angkor Watt. Other agencies such as Indochina Sails or Transmekong also have similar ambition to
sufficiently exploit this potential tour.

Chi Minh City with Cruises on Mekong, some agencies also open more trips to other destinations along
the river, especially parts from Tien Giang Province of Vietnam to Cambodia. This is a good sign for
development of tourism industry in Mekong River Delta in particular and Vietnam in general, especially
when there are numerous negative predictions about recession in tourism industry due to global
economic crisis. This also demonstrates that Vietnam is still a potential market for exploitation tourism
industry.
