On this all-LGBT+ full charter trip, you'll explore Cambodia and Vietnam along the Mekong River. You start in Siem Reap with an in-depth visit to the temples of Angkor Wat, after which you board the luxurious Mekong Jewel in Kampong Cham. Along the way, visit the hilltop monastery of Wat Hanchey, the village of Angkor Ban, and the capital Phnom Penh. After crossing the border, travel on sampans through the canals of Vietnam's Mekong Delta, passing Sa Dec and Vinh Long, before the trip ends in Ho Chi Minh City.

Itinerary

7 stops · 12 nights

  1. 1
    Siem Reap (Cambodia) Start

    The Cambodian city is the gateway to the legendary Angkor Wat temple complex. Between centuries-old ruins, jungles and bustling markets, you will experience the heritage of the Khmer Empire.

  2. 2
    Kampong Cham (Cambodia)

    The quiet provincial town on the Mekong River in Cambodia attracts you with French colonial heritage, the old bamboo bridge and nearby temples in the middle of rice fields.

  3. 3
    Angkor Ban (Cambodia)

    The original river village on the Mekong in Cambodia defied the Khmer Rouge and shows you traditional wooden stilt houses and rural everyday life far away from tourism.

  4. 4
    Phnom Penh (Cambodia)

    Cambodia's capital on the Mekong River combines the magnificent Royal Palace and the Silver Pagoda with moving history. You will experience French colonial architecture and lively city life here.

  5. 5
    Sa Dec (Vietnam)

    The lively market town in Vietnam's Mekong Delta beckons you with colorful flower gardens, floating markets and colonial architecture. She inspired the novel "The Lover".

  6. 6
    Vinh Long (Vietnam)

    The Vietnamese city is located in the heart of the Mekong Delta. From here, explore floating markets, lush orchards, and the bustling life on the river arms.

  7. 7
    Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam) Finish

    Vietnam's vibrant metropolis, formerly Saigon, captivates you with its bustling street life, French colonial heritage, the Reunification Palace and lively markets.

The ship · Mekong Jewel

The Mekong Jewel is considered the most comfortable ship on the Mekong: 34 individually designed suites, four decks, pool, spa with sauna and steam bath, a separate nail salon and hairdressing area as well as two lounges are part of the equipment of the comparatively young river cruiser from Uniworld Boutique River Cruises.

Uniworld has been cooperating with R Family Vacations for some time and regularly offers fully chartered LGBTQ+ trips on the Mekong on this basis. The route leads from Siem Reap in Cambodia via Phnom Penh and several smaller stations to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. On board, R-Family founders Gregg Kaminsky and Kelli Carpenter will take over the tour guide, supplemented by their own entertainment program with queer artists and thematic evenings.

The Mekong Jewel is aimed at a mixed queer target group – from couples to rainbow families – but embeds the program in Uniworld's regular luxury amenities: small group size, excursions with local guides and a gastronomic concept that is oriented towards the respective region.

Frequently asked questions

How does an LGBT cruise differ from a regular one?
As a rule the entire ship is chartered — a 100% queer crowd with its own programme of DJs, drag shows and themed parties.

What is usually included?
Cabin, full board, entertainment and pool are mostly included. Premium drinks, spa and shore excursions are usually charged separately.

Is the trip suitable for solo travellers?
Yes — the solo share is high on many trips, and there are often dedicated solo meet-ups on board.

What are the cancellation terms?
That depends on the operator. You will find the exact deadlines and conditions directly with the provider.

What about safety when docking in restrictive countries?
The operators are careful about route choices. At controversial ports, shore excursions are curated thoughtfully.
