21 Day Grand Tour of Vietnam & Cambodia Cruise Review

“Simply an amazing trip, couldn’t get enough of it! This has been the longest and most exceptional cruise I’ve ever been on and I say this as an experienced traveller. This cruise has charmed me in ways I can’t put into words: the tours were excellent, the itinerary gave us a massive catalogue of things to do and didn’t make me feel stifled, and the restaurants we got to visit were wonderful. The food was gorgeous and I’ve even taken up cooking classes to be able to try and make the dishes I had on this cruise again! I’ll be sure to use Emerald Cruises again in the future.”
