Junk Cruise Description
 |
Le Cochinchine is a
modern and tastefully designed river
barge. Built in traditional style Le
Cochinchine measures around 30 meters long
from bow to stern and has two 420 HP
engines , one in back up, making Le
Cochinchine a very powerful and safe river
vessel.
Le Cochinchine offers an elegant,
relaxing and fulfilling ways to
explore endless water way of Mekong
River. The cruise brings us into contact
with people in different corner of the
Delta . With Le Cochinchine, you will
have ample opportunity to see
Vietnam in its authenticity
and sample local culture and food,
in a one unpacking, unforgettable vacation
where your "floating
hotel" get you insight into
Mekong Delta and quaint villages.
Aboard Le Cochinchine you will enjoy the
continuous and ever-changing scenery
as you encounter a lively world of
legendary waterways and picturesque
landscapes, floating markets, lush
bonsais garden, rice fields,
villages, pagodas and temples,
fruit-filled orchards, boat laden bazaar
and a host of smiling children.
Cabin
Each
cabin has its own air-conditioning unit,
which can be adjusted for your comfort. We
recommend you do not over- cool your cabin
as the sudden change from the outside
temperature to a chilled cabin can bring
on colds, respiratory illnesses and even
stomach upsets. When you go out, we
recommend you turn the setting to 'Lo
Cool', set at about 4, and then when you
return you can readjust the temperature to
your preference without having to wait for
cool air. At night you may prefer to use
the fan only, and have the windows open.
Insect netting covers the windows to
enable you to do this. Please do not leave
your air-conditioner on with the window
open - this results in energy loss (the
equivalent of switching on the heating and
opening the windows in a cold country!

Meals on board Le Cochinchine are
taken at one sitting. It is not necessary
to sit at the same table each time and we
have tables for individuals, couples right
up to larger groups. We offer a

always vegetarian dishes offered.

as vegetarian, low salt & low
