RV Mekong Navigator

[eedee2]

Has anyone traveled on the RV Mekong Navigator? I am particularly interested to know if the images seen on the internet are actual pictures or artist impressions? Also it would be great to read a recent review!

We were on this boat in November and the images reflect how the boat appears. We did the trip with Vantage Deluxe World Travel and thought it was an outstanding trip. Be prepared for some difficult walking, steep river banks, and unimproved streets and sidewalks, plus some hot and humid weather.

If you have any specific questions let me know.

Many thanks for clarifying that the pics are correct. Could you also please tell me if there are any tables for two in the dining room?

"Difficult walking" - Sneakers necessary? Sports sandals better? Muddy?

[tiegs]

Sneakers or closed toe shoes are better, the streets are unimproved in many areas and depending on when you go standing water and what might be floating in it......enough said.

 

You will go places where you will be required to remove your shoes, so some people might like to leave their socks on and not go barefoot.

 

In some areas you will get off the boat on the river bank, not at a dock and the walk will be up a steep hill, however the crew will assist you.

 

I do not recall any tables for two.

Thanks tiegs. It's going to be the waterproof closed-toe sports sandals from Keene. :)
