Dragon Eyes Cruise

The Dragon Eyes is the perfect choice of a vacation paradise for couples, families, or friends that cruising on the vast waters and the small canals of the mighty Mekong river is an excellent way to discover the Mekong Delta.
Why should you spend your romantic honeymoon on board? That is because you can even charter the vessel and explore the Mekong River in exclusive privacy.

Cruise boat design

The two sister boats Dragon Eyes I and Dragon Eyes II were built in the traditional style of the Mekong Delta boats. Their elegant, slender, and shallow hulls enable the Dragon Eyes to cruise also the secondary side canals of the Mekong river which are difficult for the larger cruisers to explore.

The river cruise boats are big enough to provide you with ample space for relaxation and privacy. Each of the Dragon Eyes provides around 100 m2 for its guests. It’s like a floating hotel:

Two spacy private cabins (14 — 16 m2), providing a nicely designed bathroom, a French balcony, sitting area, individual air conditioning, fans, and fantastic Mekong river views through the panorama windows.

Dragon Eyes Cruise

The boats were built by local shipbuilders from following traditional designs. The cabins and the interior were built by Vietnamese master craftsmen. Most interiors and furniture are built from exclusive tropical woods, where available with certification for sustainable forest plantation. All critical technical equipment like engine, navigation, rudder, air-conditioning, water purification or fire protection system are imported from Japan or Europe.

In the indoor panorama lounge, you can watch the hustle and bustle of the Mekong Delta sitting in the cool and cozy front salon with air condition and large panorama windows and 270° views on the river.

On the sun deck on the top deck, you can enjoy a sunbath while watching the scenery passing by. Indulge in the culinary specialties of Vietnam in the roofed outdoor restaurant or enjoy a sun-downer in your private bar on the top deck — all with fantastic river views.
