Pampered adventure. What could be better? We spent seven days traveling from Siem Reap (Angkor Wat) to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon). Most days included twice daily excursions with opportunities to experience the rural rive life in both Cambodia and Vietnam. The ship was small enough for all of us - guests and crew alike - to become family. The food was exquisite (for a non-seafood eater, my options ...
The Jahan is a wonderful "boutique" cruiser, well appointed with a brilliant team on board to answer your every need.
Nothing is forgotten to the extent of hats on the beds upon arrival, even a mozzie spray which unusually I did not need. The private balcony was really special & although it looks olde worldly from the Raj period it has all mod cons & everything works. In fact the attention to ...
Smaller ship. We are not "group tour" people.
Terrific staff which is really part of the Cambodian culture, but still miles ahead of anything you would experience in the States or Europe. The cruise director was on the ball all the time and the country guides were well-prepared and showed the way. The food was very good and the service staff was excellent.
All excursions were included in ...
What a delightful surprise from start to finish! Everything went smoothly.
The boat was well appointed. The food was top-notch offering wonderful Asian cuisine (plenty of western food options available for the selective eaters). The dining staff from Chef Davet to each and every server made all meals enjoyable.

We were very interested in seeing Asia and this seemed like a good place to start. Embarkation was a breeze! Taken right to our suite. Huge! Lots of space. Didn’t have a balcony but did have large windows that lowered. Staff very welcoming from the moment we boarded and everywhere went went. Our favorite place to relax with a beverage was the spirit lounge/River cafe where we interacted with very ...
We have just returned from an amazing cruise on board the Emerald Harmony. Our only other river cruise was in Europe in the winter (Emerald also) so we were not sure what to expect on hot steamy days in South East Asia.
From the Cruise director, AB, to the cabin staff and all in-between we were treated like VIPs and always knew what, where and why things were happening.

I have travelled with this Company before and have enjoyed their service every time.
The service staff were mainly from Cambodia and they are total professionals.
The food options were wide and always delicious .
The wines and cocktails were superb matches for each dining experience. The staff on the Harmony were the best I have encountered in over 30 years of international travel.

The cruise was faultless. It was a wonderful way to travel. There is always something to see, be it from the bar, pool, restaurant or your room. The scenery was stunning particularly entering the Tonle Sap lake. The ships decor was beautiful in Indian raj style. Room was well presented and clean. Every night there would be the next days itinerary and a little gift on the bed. A lovely touch. ...
We just returned from the 13 day Wonders of Vietnam, Cambodia and the Mekong. We were extremely well taken care of from the moment we landed in Saigon to the day we flew out of Siem Reap. Our guide in Vietnam, Chi Pham - was the best guide we have ever had, she made sure we received exceptional service in Saigon and was very informative, it was hard to say goodbye to her at the Cambodian border, ...
We have cruised many rivers in Europe and also in Australia. We had taught in southeast Asian cities but never really explored the 'real southeast Asia, and the Mekong is such a famous river.
We chose The Jahan because it was quite a small ship (26 cabins) and the reviews we could find were pretty good , However, all the reviews understated the excellent hospitality, housekeeping, personal ...
