The itinerary:

Day 1, December 4, 2024: the 3rd day of the tour

Victoria Mekong Cruises Joint Venture Company Limited, is a partnership between Vietnam-based hospitality managers Thien Minh Group and Wendy Wu Tours, since 2019. Their headquarter is perhaps in Can Tho, or at least they’ve a substantial resort there.

After lunch @ Stung Saen, we drove straight to the port, passing through Damrei Choan Khla → Kampong Siem – Krala →Ampil (bathroom break)→Kampong Cham – Boeng Kok→Veal Vong, where the ship is anchored.

 

On this sail, from Kampong Cham near Siem Reap in Cambodia, to Can Though in Vietnam, has two group of tours: ours and one from Europe. The capacity of our ship is 60 passengers.

From the design of the cabin to service from the crew, is very good. It has one restaurant – Claypot, serving Asian and Western cuisines: both are good.

After each excursion, two members would be by the door, with cold towels and different drinks. During the movie, they even sneak in to provide drinks and popcorns.

… some meals

… some port of calls are just patch of dirt.

The cocktail competition on Dec 9: our small group of three women won, thanks to Karyn who made an excellent Sea Breeze -:)

We stopped here for lunch after leaving Siem Reap.

The first I saw is the lined swimming pool -:) very happy but sad that I can’t swim here.

It’s buffet lunch. Food is fine and service is good. Among many varieties, is the Cambodian national dish Fish Amok, or amok trei (អាម៉ុកត្រី in Khmer). It has a special place in their cuisine, commonly enjoyed during special occasions. It is believed that Fish Amok has its roots in the Khmer Empire, dates from the 9th century.
