The Rivers of Asia

A journey on one of Asia’s great rivers offers a tapestry of fascinating sights, colorful cultures, and ancient traditions. Asia cruises with Avalon Waterways get you closer to all the must-see sights and introduces you to the locals and their way of life. Our very design is different because it was inspired by you: for a more intimate experience on our new all-suite ships in Southeast Asia with no more than 36 travelers, a more immersive experience with our Local Favorites designed to spotlight the unique stories in each destination, and more shore excursions-all led by our expert Cruise Directors and carefully selected Certified Local Guides. All of this and so much more await on an adventure you’ll never forget.

    Mekong River Cruise

    From the mountainous north to the verdant flood plains of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam boasts a rich and fascinating culture of striking beauty. Bustling local markets paint a colorful picture of daily life, while the breathtaking highlands of Sapa, the golden beaches of Hoi An, and the grand geological formations in stunning Ha Long Bay never fail to amaze. Cambodia’s ancient Angkor Wat temple complex is a highlight of a Mekong River cruise—surpassed only by the gentle people and peaceful landscapes along the “Great Waters” of the Mekong through Cambodia and Vietnam.
