With the introduction of the RV La Marguerite , Rivages du Monde adds another beautiful ship to its Mekong fleet. This is aboard this spacious colonial vessel replica, that we propose to your discovery the life-giving Mekong River . The cruise will depart from Saigon and head for Cambodia . We invite you to this exploration on board of a new vessel that we have desired luxurious, elegant and comfortable. The RV La Marguerite , named after the French novelist Marguerite Duras, incorporates fine French details into its contemporary interiors carefully mixed with local artifacts and furniture to replicate a true colonial feel in its design. Ho Chi Minh City , the teeming and bustling city of the South, is the incarnation of modern Vietnam which since the launching of the « Doï Moï» course, some twenty years ago, is experiencing the momentum of an incredible development. You will then sail into the Mekong Delta which remains unchanged, allowing travelers the chance to experience Vietnam the way it was in the colonial era. The ascent of the river will bring you to explore the enthralling landscapes that haunt our imagination. You will find traditions intact and the multisecular Dynasties who built cities and temples among the most fascinating in the world.
