Sail along and immerse yourself in life on the Mekong River, in the height of luxury with Jacada Travel’s latest guided holiday introduction

Perhaps one of the greatest advantages of living in this part of the world, is the proximity to amazing destinations where one can enjoy relaxing and culturally-rich holidays without having to travel very far.

After hopping onto the numerous familiar islands surrounding us, we still find ourselves looking for unusual and perhaps less travelled places, every once in a while.

And it seems we have stumbled upon one option that we surely won’t be giving a miss.

Perfect for a romantic or solo getaway on the seas, personalised travel expert, Jacada Travel, has most recently introduced a luxury holiday that is a tough act to follow. It basically invites you to see Southeast Asia with a whole new set of eyes as you float along the idyllic setting that is the Mekong river – on a bespoke five star boutique, floating hotel.

The stuff of dreams, you can live, for a few days, as part of the colourful canvas that encompasses life along the longest river in Southeast Asia, taking in all the tranquil beauty and culture that surround you as you float along a river that is essentially a haven of complete calm and peace.

The focus on culture and stunning wildlife is what sets Aqua Mekong apart as a destination. It is a different kind of beauty – Vietnamese life from an authentic perspective. Floating rivers, emerald forests, bamboo stilted villages like Tonle Sap to name a few, floating markets like Cai Be and Buddhist monasteries punctuate the beautiful and exotic landscape that make up the ‘city on water’. Along with its rich history, the Mekong River is also home to around 60 million people, making it a truly flourishing place.

Since Aqua Mekong is the first shop to sail along the Mekong River with its own private skiffs – allowing guests to completely immerse themselves in the most raw and real cultural experience, without having to forsake the luxuries that come with staying at a five-star hotel – it truly stands out amongst its contemporaries.

Along with the rich cultural experience, guests can can also look forward to stunning wildlife, like what most Jacada Travel’s guided tours involve, including a trip to Tra Su Cajuput Forest.

Imagine experiencing beautiful sunsets and waking up to even more stunning, sparkling sunrises, on the water. Aqua Mekong takes its guests on a journey that is, indubitably, a magical one.
