CroisiEurope RV Indochine vs Viking River Saigon: A Mekong River Cruise Showdown

When it comes to exploring the Mekong River in style, the CroisiEurope RV Indochine and the Viking River Saigon are two standout river cruise vessels offering distinct experiences. Both ships provide diesel propulsion systems, modern navigation technologies like ECDIS, and comply with international safety standards, including SOLAS and MARPOL. They host an intimate number of guests with excellent crew support, delivering memorable trips along the Mekong. However, their size, onboard amenities, and pricing significantly diverge, shaping who they best serve. The RV Indochine is a smaller, classic ship with an emphasis on cultural immersion and value, featuring all oceanview cabins and solid essentials. Conversely, the Viking River Saigon is a larger, newer cruiser boasting extensive luxury amenities such as pools, spas, diverse dining options, and advanced cabin technologies. Let's delve deeper into what makes each vessel unique.

The Compact Charm and Cultural Focus of CroisiEurope RV Indochine

The RV Indochine measures 213.25 feet in length with a wider beam of 44.29 feet, accommodating a moderate 62 passengers across 31 cabins, all featuring ocean views. This vessel prides itself on an excellent 2:1 passenger-to-crew ratio, ensuring attentive, personalized service. Powered by twin Cummins and Caterpillar diesel engines generating 800 kW, it cruises at a maximum speed of 12 knots with an efficient range of 1200 nautical miles.

Despite its modest size, the RV Indochine maintains robust fire safety systems, including sprinklers and a distinctive water mist system. The ship's onboard clinic and security checkpoint provide peace of mind. Dining onboard centers around one elegant restaurant and a bar, offering vegetarian and gluten-free options, catering to simpler culinary tastes.

For recreation, relaxation is focused on a massage spa service, and a cozy show lounge accommodating 62 guests hosts local theatrical entertainment. Shore excursions emphasize cultural tours and city sightseeing, fostering a deep local connection. While technology onboard includes satellite communication and WiFi support, it lacks the more advanced cabin smart systems found on larger ships.

Environmentally, the RV Indochine is compliant with wastewater treatment and holds a C rating for energy efficiency. As a LEED-certified vessel, it promotes sustainable cruising despite its simpler profile. A key advantage is its affordability, with prices starting around $2019 at tourradar.com, making it accessible for travelers seeking value without sacrificing comfort.

Viking River Saigon: Luxury, Space, and Technological Sophistication on the Mekong

The Viking River Saigon stands out as a new generation river cruiser, spanning 230 feet with a narrower 36-foot beam, yet boasting significantly greater gross tonnage of 5000, compared to RV Indochine's 1200. It can host up to 80 passengers in 40 cabins, including 2 luxurious suites and an impressive 38 balcony cabins.

Performance-wise, it's powered by twin MAN Diesel & Turbo engines with a combined output of 1500 kW, offering a cruising speed of 9 knots and an extensive fuel capacity of 40,000 units, enabling 1500 nautical miles of uninterrupted exploration. The vessel includes modern stabilizers and a semi-automated bridge control system, reflecting advanced maritime technology.

Safety is well-covered with six lifeboats and life rafts, plus four muster stations, providing superior evacuation preparedness. Dining is a gastronomic affair featuring four restaurants, a specialty venue, a buffet, multiple bars, and a café. Viking supports a wide array of dietary preferences, including kosher and halal, complemented by beverage packages offered onboard.

Recreational options abound on Viking River Saigon, including a swimming pool, fitness center, spas with a thermal suite and beauty salon, plus an adult-only lounge area. Entertainment is vibrant, with a show lounge that seats 100 guests, live DJ and band performances, as well as extensive shore excursions ranging from adventure sports to wildlife watching and wine tastings. This diversity caters to a more varied traveler profile.

Technologies onboard enhance convenience and connectivity with features like a dedicated onboard app, smart cabin controls, digital assistants, satellite TV, plus multiple communication systems (VHF, UHF, GMDSS). Environmental sustainability is superior with an A energy efficiency rating, catalytic converters, and a carbon offset program.

Guest services recognize multicultural needs with support in 10+ languages, twice-daily housekeeping, faster port turnaround, and extensive concierge services. However, luxury comes at a premium price, starting at approximately $6499 at CruiseDirect, targeting travelers seeking the ultimate Mekong cruising extravagance.

Quick Take

The CroisiEurope RV Indochine offers a charming, culturally immersive cruise with well-sized oceanview cabins, attentive service, and a wallet-friendly price tag. Viking River Saigon appeals to those craving spaciousness, upscale amenities, cutting-edge technology, and diverse dining and entertainment options on a modern river vessel.

Bottom Line Recommendation

For travelers prioritizing budget, authenticity, and a more intimate cultural cruise, the CroisiEurope RV Indochine stands out as a dependable and cozy option. On the other hand, if luxury, expansive accommodations, and sophisticated onboard experiences are top priorities, the Viking River Saigon is clearly the superior choice, albeit at a higher cost.

Verdict

  • Winner: Viking River Saigon - For its spaciousness, advanced amenities, superior technology, and enriched guest experiences.
  • Runner-up: CroisiEurope RV Indochine - For its affordability, cultural focus, and classic river cruise charm.
