Emerald Waterways has chartered a vessel to run its first river cruise itinerary in Asia along the Mekong.
The year-old Mekong Navigator will operate the fully-inclusive itinerary through Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand in 2016.
Facilities on board the 68-passenger vessel include a spa, gym, sundeck library as well as five grades of suites.
Three itineraries ranging in duration from 14 to 21 days are available, with some including a Thailand beach stop-over.
Package prices start at £2,195 per person for 14 days, including seven nights sailing from Ho Chi Minh City to Siem Reap and Singapore Airlines flights from London or Manchester.
A dedicated brochure has been published to support the move into Asia.
An early booking discount of £1,000 per couple is being offered for bookings made by August 31.
