Sailing along the mighty Mekong River in Vietnam and Cambodia is a culturally rich experience, one that is largely about getting to know the local people and learn the history of this complex region. The Mekong Jewel makes a perfect, luxurious base from which to explore these historied waters. Your time onboard will be characterised by Uniworld’s signature hotel-like feel, with opulent staircases and comfortable furnishings at every turn. Plus, two dining options—one of which is al fresco—provide sumptuous plates throughout your journey, many of which are inspired by the regions through which you’ll be sailing.
This all-suite ship features just 34 suites in total. The Suites, two Grand Suites, and two Royal Suites feature ample space for your Mekong Delta adventures. Suites have a generous 31.5 square metres of space, Grand Suites have 51 square metres, and the Royal Suites have a whopping 85.8 square metres. Suites on the Sun and Orchid decks feature private enclosed balconies with floor-to-ceiling windows, while those found on the Lotus deck boast French balconies.
Finally, there is no shortage of amenities available for your time onboard the Mekong Jewel. When you’re not out experiencing enriching, authentic experiences in Vietnam and Cambodia, spend your time onboard relaxing by the pool, indulging in a spa treatment, decompressing in the sauna and steam room, or breaking a sweat in the gym. If that’s not enough, there are also two lounges in which you can relax and socialise. The library is the perfect place to catch up on your reading or peruse their collection. Finally, if a little extra pampering is in order, simply head to the onboard hair salon or nail bar.
