Recapping our Viking River Cruise through Myanmar
When I first planned my trip aboard Viking River Cruises’ Viking Mandalay as part of Viking’s 15-day Myanmar Explorer river cruise tour itinerary, I didn’t know what to expect. I’d sailed with Viking numerous times in Europe, covering the Danube, the Rhine, France’s Bordeaux region and Portugal’s Douro river. I admire their product in Europe for how consistently good it is, from start to finish, across all aspects. Service is exemplary. Food is above-average. Tours offered are well-planned, and the Viking Longship river cruise vessels are some of the most beautiful afloat.
The fact remains that Viking also offers an exceptional lineup of exotic river cruises throughout China and Southeast Asia, including the Mekong through Vietnam and Cambodia; and Myanmar along the Irrawaddy River.
Viking has a more mature Asian river cruise lineup than many of their competitors, yet these voyages are barely written about. Little information exists on them online or in print, which is a shame, because as I discovered, Viking’s southeast Asian itineraries can more than hold their own.
