AQUA MEKONG is a 62.4-metre riverboat built in 2014 to offer luxurious travel between Cambodia and Vietnam, refitted in 2023. Cruising at eight knots along the lower Mekong basin, she allows guests to witness as much of authentic Mekong life and landscape as possible. Her interiors are the work of Saigon-based British architect David Hodkinson of Noor Design, whose portfolio spans luxury hotels and restaurants across Asia and Europe.
AQUA MEKONG accommodates up to 40 guests across 20 cabins, each with floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony, ensuring spectacular river views are never out of reach, even from the privacy of a guest suite.
When not exploring sites such as the Angkor Wat temple complex or the wildlife and wetlands of Tonle Sap, guests can relax on board with a boutique library stocked with newspapers and magazines, a bar and lounge, a restaurant, a pool, a fully equipped gym, a cinema for movie nights, and traditional wooden games.
A crew of 40 oversees the charter, curating excursions that include a visit to the Prek Toal Bird Sanctuary at Tonle Sap to explore the UNESCO biosphere and spot rare birds, watching artisans craft royal Khmer silverware in the silversmith village of Koh Chen, riding an ox-cart along the banks of Tonle Sap, or receiving a ceremonial blessing from a monk in the floating village of Moat Khla. Active excursions including cycling, kayaking and canoeing are also available.

The exterior deck spaces of Aqua Mekong are laid out for the full range of superyacht charter experiences. An expansive aft deck provides a natural gathering point for meals and aperitifs, while the upper deck and sun deck above deliver progressively more sweeping views across the water. At 62.4 metres, the yacht offers considerable deck area for a group of 40 guests, with lounging, dining and social areas distributed across multiple levels to ensure privacy and variety throughout the day. Whether anchored off an idyllic coastline or in a bustling marina, the outdoor decks of Aqua Mekong create a superyacht experience that extends naturally from the interior to the sea.
Aqua Mekong’s water sport and leisure inventory is curated to offer genuine variety across any charter itinerary. A selection of high-quality tenders enables seamless transport between yacht and shore, whether for a restaurant dinner, a market visit or a beach excursion. Beyond transport, jet skis, paddleboards, kayaks, snorkelling and diving equipment support time on and in the water, while towable toys and inflatable platforms make the yacht accessible to guests of all ages and inclinations. The crew’s expertise with the toy inventory ensures that every session is safe, enjoyable and as adventurous as guests choose to make it.
Charter itineraries aboard Aqua Mekong span some of the world’s finest sailing grounds. Based in the Mediterranean, she is positioned to offer guests access to the most sought-after destinations in yachting: secluded coves accessible only by sea, historic port towns with exceptional dining, vibrant anchorages surrounded by like-minded yachts and genuinely remote coastlines where the only company is wildlife. The professional captain works with guests to construct an itinerary that balances activity and rest, discovery and relaxation, with the flexibility to adapt each day’s plan to the wind, the weather and the preferences of the group.
