Our cruise on AmaDara on the Mekong Delta through AmaWaterways was a unique experience. Starting with our travel agent Chris Ahrens from Avoya Travel who picked the perfect cabin and was available to answer all of our questions to all of the wonderful AmaDara staff who pampered us during the pre, cruise and post land tours in Vietnam and Cambodia. The Sofitel hotels were luxurious with delicious breakfast buffets. The tour guides were informative and personable, sharing their life stories with us. The many all inclusive shore excursions and tours gave us a chance to learn the country’s histo
