Discontinuation of some Mekong River boat cruises in Laos
Discontinuation of some Mekong River boat cruises in Laos
While Laos is reopening its borders, some cruise operators are not riding the wave of resurgent travel opportunities in this land-locked country.
Mekong Cruises, which includes Luang Say Cruise and Vat Phou Cruise, has not survived the two-and-a-half years without tourists and will not resume service for the 2022/2023 season.
An alternative cruising company Shompoo Cruise, has not yet expressed its intention to resume operations any time yet. Customers keen to experience a passage across through the rugged rural landscape of this spectacular country can take advantage of itineraries in our portfolio of multi-destination cruises, including navigation through the magnificent scenery of the mighty Mekong River.
A unique trip conveys passengers from Thailand’s Golden Triangle into the heart of Laos, with a journey from Chiang Rai to Vientiane via Luang Prabang.
