Ho Chi Minh City

Angkor Wat, Vietnam

Temples, lantern-lit streets, floating markets, and unforgettable cuisine - this is Southeast Asia at its most magical.

Get ready to journey through Vietnam and Cambodia on a 20-day fly, tour & cruise adventure that takes in the region’s most iconic highlights - all with Dream Maker’s signature style and comfort. From the rice paddies of Hanoi to the ancient temples of Angkor, every stop is a sensory delight.

Start in Singapore with a night at the award-winning Crowne Plaza Changi before flying into vibrant Hanoi. Explore the city’s colonial charm, ancient temples, and buzzing Old Quarter before heading to Ha Long Bay for a 3-day luxury cruise on the Paradise Grand. With limestone cliffs, quiet lagoons, cooking classes, kayaking, and Tai Chi at sunrise - this is one for the travel memory books.

Then it's off to Hoi An, Vietnam’s most picturesque town, for lazy beach days, cooking classes, and river cruises past rice paddies and water buffalo. In Ho Chi Minh City, dive into the country’s complex past with visits to the War Remnants Museum, bustling markets, and colonial landmarks.

Next, step aboard your private Dream Maker charter of the Avalon Saigon for 8 unforgettable days cruising the Mekong River. Visit family-run workshops, charming villages, and centuries-old temples. Watch conical hats being handmade, cruise past floating markets, and enjoy cultural performances from local communities - all from the comfort of your elegant Panorama Suite.

Then it's on to Cambodia - with time to explore Phnom Penh’s regal and tragic history, and finally, the grand finale: two nights in Siem Reap with guided visits to Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm, and Bayon Temple, plus a traditional Apsara dance performance.

From 5-star hotels and seamless internal flights to included gourmet meals, excursions, and cultural experiences - this tour has it all. If Southeast Asia has been on your bucket list, this is the trip for you.

Avalon Saigon ship information

Since first taking her maiden voyage on the Mekong River, the Avalon Saigon has been praised for delivering an intimate cruise experience as part of Avalon's award-winning fleet of Suite Ships®. Named "Best New River Cruise Ship" by TravelAge West, the Saigon sails with a maximum of just 36 guests, delivering all the modern features you expect from Avalon Waterways, while incorporating the unique character and charm of Southeast Asia.

The Avalon Saigon is designed to venture easily into areas where other cruise ships cannot, while measuring as wide and long as ships carrying twice the number of our just 36 guests. Cruising uninterrupted from Ho Chi Minh City to Phnom Penh (or vice versa), the Saigon eliminates hours of motorcoach travel time associated with other river cruise ship itineraries.
