    Hanoi, Vietnam
    • Hanoi, Vietnam
    A full day to explore this nostalgic city, beginning with your first Scenic Freechoice. Scenic Freechoice: Visit the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long and Hoa Lo Prison, a journey through the nation's past across two very different chapters of history. Alternatively, spend the morning at Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum and the Temple of Literature, founded in 1070, then discover the charm of the Old Quarter over a celebrated egg coffee. Those wanting a deeper cultural immersion can head to the ancient village of Bat Trang, a community devoted to traditional porcelain and pottery, where a local elder shares the spiritual beliefs of his community before a hands-on lunch of banh cuon rice pancakes. Scenic Enrich: This evening, a green electric car winds through the Old Quarter to your Scenic Enrich: a VIP performance of Hanoi's world-famous water puppet theater, with a special backstage pass to follow. ...

    A Tai Chi lesson on the Sun Deck opens the morning as the ship sails deeper into the national park.

In Kampong Cham, the Scenic Spirit awaits, your five-star floating home for the Mekong River cruise ahead. A welcome cocktail reception hosted by your cruise director marks the start of life onboard.

    • Wat Hanchey, Cambodia
    • Kampong Cham, Cambodia
    Rise as the Scenic Spirit approaches Wat Hanchey, an ancient hilltop pagoda and monastery perched above the Mekong. Step ashore to learn about monastic life from those who live it, then take in the sweeping views across the river and surrounding countryside before cruising back to Kampong Cham. Scenic Freechoice: This afternoon, choose your Scenic Freechoice experience. Join a guided visit to Phnom Pros, a mountaintop pagoda steeped in local legend and, more recently, the site of a Khmer Rouge killing field, a visit that carries both history and quiet reflection. Continue to Wat Nokor Bachey, a fascinating architectural layering of Angkorian era stonework and a working modern temple built within. Alternatively, take a drive through Kampong Cham's colonial era shop houses to a French-established rubber plantation, and on to a village known for its betel nut cultivation, an enduring part of Cambodian rural culture. For those seeking a more remote encounter, Koh Pen Village on Pen Island is accessible only by local remork across a bridge, offering a glimpse into a way of life unchanged by the pace of the wider world. Should you prefer a quieter afternoon, your butler is delighted to arrange dinner served privately in your suite or on your balcony as the Scenic Spirit makes her way toward Angkor Ban beneath the Cambodian sky. ...

    • Phnom Penh, Cambodia
    Arrive in the riverside settlement of Angkor Ban, where wooden houses more than a century old stand as quiet survivors of the Khmer Rouge era. Explore their history with a local guide before visiting a nearby Buddhist pagoda. Scenic Enrich: Receive a traditional blessing from a resident monk, learn how to offer prayers within the pagoda, and participate in an alms ceremony, a contribution to the daily sustenance of the monks and a deeply respectful cultural exchange. Re-board the Scenic Spirit for lunch before cruising to the island of Oknha Tey, known locally as Silk Island and dedicated to the ancient art of silk weaving. A tuk tuk ride to the farm reveals the full process from silkworm to loom. Back onboard, learn the many ways to drape and wear the krama, the traditional Cambodian scarf. The wellness center and beauty salon are available for those seeking some quiet restoration, and complimentary laundry facilities are on hand ahead of a Scenic Sundowners cocktail reception on the Sun Deck as the Scenic Spirit approaches the illuminated skyline of Phnom Penh.
