Explorers of the Mekong
The Explorers of the Mekong river is a revisited colonial modern romantic style of navigating on the Mekong river. “Travelling is an Art” will be synonymous of luxury travel in full elegance. A real journey in nature inspired by legendary poets, writers, painters and photographers. A travel into the historical Golden Triangle all the way down to the delta. Truly a journey to remember.
 
 
Elegance in Discovery
The Explorers will offer many itineraries on the Mekong.
A river boat, that will bring you into another world, full of interstellar sky at night to a splendid reality of bio-eco unique landscape and art of living. A boat, a dream, a ship with memorabilia such as the historical movie legend of “African Queen” where elegance and discovery are fusion. Such an exotic romantic feeling. Extravaganza in exploration, land, nature and animals, discovery of temples and mystical places full of mysteries.
 
 
Adventure on the river
The long river that births in Yunnan all the way to China Sea in Vietnam crossing 6 countries from China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and the delta is in Saigon. All along from Pagodas, tea terraces, old opium fields where many explorators wrote books and adventures stories to memorize this journey.
38 guests in 18 bedrooms cabins and one suite Safari cabin. A large open deck on the roof with mini pool and outdoor cinema at night. The restaurant will have full height sliding louvers on both sides of the boat for sight-seeing, while cruising. A lounge Café-Bar & Lounge with sofas to enjoy at night the quietness of the landscape with music and outdoor cinema. A private roof on the upper deck for special quiet zone.
The cabins on second floor will have full height windows looking at the panorama. The decor will be Safari minimalist with local Mekong Asian materials such as Burma wood, natural eco-weaving material, and wooden warm atmosphere. Every cabin will have a private bathroom with sliding doors and colonial atmosphere.
 
Resorts at destination
The Explorers will embark and disembark passengers in privileged design eco-resorts all along the journey.
In the center of the boat, a spiral stair will climb from the lower level to the upper roof top located in a circle of wood, that will look like a chimney from an old cruise ship.
In the first floor the reception and the local food restaurant with Safari atmosphere for all the passengers, air conditional space with access to administration office, personal business center, gym and a small craftsman shop for shoppers. 4 cabins will be located on the first deck. The lower deck will be for machinery and equipment and staff.
