Lou Tandy (nee McGeary), APT’s Co Owner and Director, recently returned from cruising Southeast Asia with a newfound appreciation for the art of effortless travel.

“Enlightening and rejuvenating” is how Lou Tandy describes her luxury river cruise through the Mekong. “It was the perfect balance of cultural immersion and relaxation,” Tandy shares. “A big part of APT’s ethos is ease, and our Vietnam and Cambodia cruise certainly delivers this.”

The spirit of discovery and relaxed travel is ideally captured in our Vietnam and Cambodia Highlights tour. Setting off on a scenic Mekong River cruise, be immersed in the vibrant cultural and scenic tapestries of each country. From the moment you step aboard the bespoke Mekong Serenity, the Mekong River’s most luxurious ship, you’ll be transported to a floating paradise, where both the journey and destinations become equally enriching.

Be greeted by the sweet aroma of tropical blooms as you enter the ship’s plush, elegantly designed interiors. Every detail of this spacious boutique vessel has been masterfully crafted, fusing the rich cultural heritage of Cambodia and Vietnam with the timeless sophistication of French colonial influences. With just 44 suites — all featuring private balconies — the Mekong Serenity promises an intimate and tranquil journey.
