Reservations are open for sailings through Vietnam and Cambodia aboard the 124-passenger AmaDara. Travelers can delve more deeply into the countries' history and culture on pre- and post-cruise land programs.

Entry regulations easing

'Now that entry regulations are easing, Vietnam and Cambodia have jumped to the top of our guests’ must-visit travel lists,' said Kristin Karst, EVP and co-founder of AmaWaterways. 'We are seeing pent-up desire for authentic experiences in exotic destinations, so we are absolutely thrilled to bring our guests back to one of my favorite parts of the world, where the beauty of the places we visit are only surpassed by the gentleness of the people who call those places home.'  

The two-for-one land package offer is available with seven 2022 departures. Both eight-day, seven-night river cruise adventures can be combined with pre- or post-cruise land packages in Hanoi, Ha Long Bay (exclusive overnight stay), Ho Chi Minh City or Siem Reap, the UNESCO World Heritage site of the ancient Angkor Wat temples.

Two itineraries

AmaWaterways offers two itineraries, 'Riches of the Mekong' and 'Charms of the Mekong,' both with visits to rural villages, markets and a monastery, where travelers will receive a special Buddhist blessing by monks.
