We will pick you up from your hotel in the city and start your Mekong River sunset cruise Set sail on a traditional boat and cruise along the Mekong River. Feel the gentle breeze and watch the world on shore slowly recede. As the sun begins to set, the boatman kills the engine, and the world suddenly falls silent. Drift slowly and dreamily toward the center of the river. Watch as the sun begins its most magnificent descent of the day. Watch as the colors begin to shift, from fiery to deep. The golden crimson fades to rose ash, the orange sinks into the embrace of dusky purple. Finally, the sun sinks completely behind the distant mountains. The remaining ray of light on the horizon, like an eyelid reluctant to close, lingeringly leaves a silver-gray gap. Finally, the cruise ship returns to the dock and the team disbands on the spot. You can participate in the famous local dock night market on your own or return to the hotel on your own.
