  • Asked by Kelly W. Wolfe | 01 Mar 2019

    Is it better to book the Aqua Mekong early or can I book on short notice?

    Answered by admin | 01 Mar 2019

    Thanks for your question. One defining advantage of the Aqua Mekong is its small capacity compared with other Mekong River journeys or a river lodge. Thus we recommend our guests book early, especially if your desired travel dates are not flexible. People typically book their Aqua Mekong River Cruise in Vietnam and Cambodia at least 10 to 18 months in advance, however we will always do our best to accommodate your desired cruise dates.

The boat tour was interesting, our guide gave us a lot of information. However, these details also make you thoughtful. So all the residents of the floating houses and villages should be illegally immigrated Vietnamese, but would be tolerated by the government. However, I do not want to live this way, without a drinking water connection, without a power connection, etc.

The boat cruise is about an hour�s drive from Siem Reap, but it is a very interesting boat ride. We boated through a village whose structures were mainly on stilts and passed by forests of partially submerged trees (mangrove forests).

As part of our group trip we drove over the Tonle Sap with our Cambodian guide. He explained very well how the region and the people there are. He asked us to bring in the hotel the toothbrushes, combs and soaps that we do not need. In the beginning, it was quickly clear why. So we had something for the children around the temple, some had the impression, they did not even know what a toothbrush is. The poverty there was terrifying. Nevertheless, it was interesting to watch the lifestyle in the stilt house. Hold a fortunately unknown world for us. With the right guide the trip will be interesting and good.
