At first glance, the triple-decker ship has the look of a hotel adrift on the Mekong Delta, water rippling like silk at the bow. Dressed in a coat of wood and metal, the Aqua departs from Ho Chi Minh City to meander past tiny villages and floating markets. Along the way, trace the country roads on a bicycle or birdwatch from the comfort of a rooftop lounger - photographers at the ready! Serene interiors create a relaxing place to rest after a busy day packed with activities. Evenings are spent watching a classic at the cinema or enjoy the sunset over a cocktail.




Designed to maximise comfort, the cabins feature a California King-sized bed draped in silk, a chaise lounge by the panoramic windows and plenty of closet space. Eight suites open onto a tastefully furnished balcony - a winning spot for your morning cuppa. The en-suite bathrooms are rather sleek with black lacquered walls, a large rainfall shower and dual sinks. If booked, the interconnecting suites are decked out with cosy day beds and a sitting area.
The rooftop pool is rather glorious. Under stretched white canvas, it's a quiet and cooling spot to soak up the views!
The ship has two interconnecting suites, perfect for groups or if you'd like a little extra room to spread out.
The Aqua has more rooms than other boats on the Mekong. You won't feel overcrowded but it loses a few exclusivity points.
