The Mekong Eyes combines regional boat-building traditions with modern comforts to become the perfect holiday vessel to cruise the Mekong Delta tours in style. Why Mekong Eyes? – One of the traditional ceremonies performed on a newly constructed Mekong boat cruises is the “eye opening”. The eyes are painted on the bow for good luck, a wide-awake crew and fast and safe journeys.

At 39 m long and 8.5 m wide, the Mekong Eyes river cruiser was built out of an old, traditional rice barge with the finest quality wood, and artfully decorated by skilled craftsmen of the Mekong Delta tours.

Their elegant, slender and shallow hulls enable the Dragon Eyes to cruise also the secondary side canals of the Mekong river which are too small for the larger cruisers to explore.
