Sailing the Mekong for Avalon Waterways is the intimate Avalon Angkor. At 131 feet, she carries a dedicated crew of 18 and can accommodate 32 guests in 16 staterooms, all of which feature elegant colonial styling and special regional motifs. But there’s nothing old about this sleek ship; Avalon Angkor entered service in 2012.

If you’ve always wanted to see the Mekong, Avalon Waterways just might have a compelling reason for you to do so this year.
