Mekong River Cruise
Vietnam and Cambodia River Cruising
Set out on an extraordinary rail adventure through Canada's dramatic, ever‑changing landscapes, seamlessly paired with your APT Luxury Travel Land Tour. These renowned train journeys invite you to slow the pace, unwind and enjoy the view as spectacular scenery unfolds outside your window, offering an immersive and relaxed way to explore the country. Journey deep into the heart of the magnificent Canadian Rockies aboard the iconic Rocky Mountaineer, where expansive panoramic windows showcase towering peaks, crystal‑clear alpine lakes and vast evergreen forests.

Captivating Cambodia
Cambodia stirs the soul, from the impressive Royal Palace of Phnom Penh and the tranquil river island of Koh Pen to the authentic stilted dwellings of Angkor Ban — amongst the handful of settlements that survived the devastation wrought by the Khmer Rouge era. Extend your adventure with a Land Tour to experience the majesty of Angkor Wat bathed in golden light at sunrise and wander through the grand temple of Ta Prohm, engulfed by the encroaching jungle.
Sights along the Mekong River
From partaking in a traditional Buddhist blessing at an Oudong monastery to observing the intricate silk weaving craftsmanship in Oknha Tey, encounter the cultures of Vietnam and Cambodia along the Mekong River. Tour a traditional coconut candy factory, navigate the narrow waterways winding around Tan Chau in a small boat, and gain a deeper insight into Cambodia's turbulent history with visits to Phnom Penh's poignant Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum and the Killing Fields.
