We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise in the delta and would have liked more time to do a few days more. The boat was pretty much exactly what was presented as was the bus trip back and forth. I would have to assume that anyone surprised at the drive to the delta did very little to no checking on the trip... More

Mekong eyes is a lovely boat alot bigger than I thought, rooms were clean and nice. Bit on the small side but we were lucky to have a room at the back which has a balcony. Let down was the quantity of food and drink available , expected more as the cruise isn't cheap. They say free water and hot... More

Our trip on the mekong eyes was great. Two families traveling with children aged 7 - 14, it was better than we expected. Having done our research for our Vietnam trip we took advice from trip advisors reviews that indicated spending the extra on the delta cruise would be worth it - great advice. The 3 day 2 night trip... More

Our cabin was at the rear with it's own private balcony so that started things off well as we had our own little place to watch the world go by. As well as the fact that there were only 18 passengers compared to a maximum of 30. And it just got better and better. The visit to the floating market... More

We booked Dragon eyes recently. All went well and we had nothing to complain about food and accommodation - the dragon eyes. The land tour to village and sampan cruise to the floating market was fantastic. The guide, however, needs english improvement. He could not understand us all the time and we need to be patient in explaining our ideas.... More

Overall we had always a great time. We were very lucky to have the complete (2 cabin) boat to our selves for the first night. The food was always very delicious and the staff was always friendly and helpful, especially Trung.  We stayed 2 nights, but for the experience we believe one night is quite enough to see and do...

Our trip along the Mekong to Phnom Penh was a fascinating experience and we enjoyed all facets of it. The Mekomg Eyes itself was very comfortable. We were lucky to have one of two deluxe cabins at the stern with a small balcony which was a great place to sit and watch life go by. The food was fine, river... More

I really enjoyed this 3-day cruise on the Mekong Eyes. Everything went so smoothly and effortlessly and I have absolutely no complaints. Nice cabin, nice food, excellent service, enjoyable outings and it was so great to sit on deck and watch the landscape and all the vessels - big and small. My husband, who is not easily entertained, was absolutely... More

We concur with much of what has been said already. We booked on the cruise on the basis of good reviews last year. To be fair the boats and food are excellent. We had a two night trip, one night on the larger vessel with 20 others and luckily another night by chance on the smaller two berth vessel which... More

Dear MikeyJas, Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the boat and the food! We apologize for the inconvenience of the lack of the shades on the sun deck – we had to remove the shades because of some urgent repairs at the roofing, which has been fixed shortly after your stay. This was... More

We expected the cruise to be one of the highlights of vietnam. The organisation and contact in Germany was very good and helpful. Pick up in HCMC was good and comfortable. But we were a little disappointed about the ship itself. The cabins were okay, but we missed the small details: no seperate AC, the shower was in turns hot... More

Dear adinamuenchen, Good to hear that you liked the organisation and contact in Germany and the service on board! Unfortunately, in November we unexpectedly had to do some repair work on the top deck / sun deck and therefore had to remove the plants, sun shade and sun beds in order to conduct those renovations. We apologize for the inconvenience!... More
