Cruise along the Mekong River in style on the Gypsy, but don’t let the simple look fool you
Passengers can choose to go jungle trekking, mountain biking or simply relax on the cruiser’s lounge and watch the sunset
If explorers in the old days travelled first class, it would be like this.
Dreaming of a bygone era of romantic voyaging and have the money to splurge? Then you are in luck. Mekong Kingdoms announced the maiden voyage of its latest addition last month, the Gypsy, an ultra-exclusive two-cabin cruiser that journeys along the Mekong River.
From a distance it is hard to see the understated luxury that lies within the Gypsy. Its straw roof and seemingly low hull will have any passer-by fooled.
However, at a closer look, you will find that this river cruiser is meticulously designed for a modern-day sojourn. The vessel is 41 metres long and has ample indoor and outdoor space. The Gypsy can cater to small groups or families with its communal midship lounge, bar and dining area. Its veranda-style lounge on the deck gives passengers a picturesque view of lush vistas.
The sleeping cabins are spacious and fully air-conditioned and comes in king bed and twin beds configurations. Each features an en suite shower and vanity space.
