Majestic Mekong River Cruise Review

“A new cruise for us, we are generally European travellers, and what a fascinating voyage it was. The Emerald Harmony is a beautiful river ship, small and personal, more like a private charter. Food and service are excellent, and the different layers of excursions that Emerald offers mean you can really get under the skin of a place. Highly recommended.”

Marcus and Helen Westbury, Andover
