Just you & the Mekong – Private Shore Excursions

30 September 2024

Sailing with Heritage Line along the Lower Mekong River offers a special cruise for every soul on board. In early 2024, we have completely overhauled our all-time favourite cruise 7-Night itinerary along the most compelling river in Southeast Asia. We have replaced ports of calls with new ones including new excursions and also have replaced or added different experiences at existing stops. More about our general cruise program you find here. Starting an initiative to privatise the cruise experience further cycling & culinary optional tours have been added just a few months ago allowing a wonderful chance to theme a cruise experience further.

Now, as the year ends, we like to present another great element to privatise a cruise to the best. Our new private shore excursions on one of our Lower Mekong allow guests to discover the region’s hidden gems and cultural treasures at their own pace, together with a personal English-speaking guide. The shore excursions replace the regular included tours. Guests will receive different sightseeing travelling to other areas. The private tour guide caters to the interests of the guests with a nice dash of flexibility. Get to know land and people in a nice personal manner that will guarantee truly memorable encounters. 

Booking Private Shore Excursion on the Lower Mekong River

The private shore excursions are available as packages per each of our regular cruise itineraries (7-.4- or 3-Nights I Saigon – Phnom Penh – Siem Reap or vice versa). The tours can be booked when sailing aboard any of our luxury ships – Heritage Line THE JAHAN or Heritage Line JAYAVARMAN with both offering the above-stated cruise itineraries. The private shore excursion package has to be booked along with the cruise booking in advance.

The private shore excursion package for a 7-Night cruise itinerary comprises 10 private tours and costs 720 USD per person (in a group of two people); 4-Night itinerary: 490 USD per person, 3-Night itinerary: 230 USD per person. Solo Traveller pays a 75% supplement on the per-person price.
