The ship’s design blends French colonial elegance with Southeast Asian artistry, creating a setting that reflects the character of the region. All staterooms and suites feature twin balconies — both a step-out and a French balcony — so the sights and sounds of the Mekong are always close at hand. Evenings often bring the ship to life in the Saigon Lounge, where guests gather for cultural performances and conversation. With spacious accommodations, a Sun Deck pool, and attentive service, AmaDara offers a distinctive and welcoming way to explore Vietnam and Cambodia.

Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary needs are happily accommodated.
