Alright Brenda, Carrie, Chris, Cindy, Larry, Liz, Matt, Prerna, Scott & Sunny — listen up.

Nobody is booking anything yet. This site collects everyone's preferences — dates and hotels — so we can hand one clean brief to a travel coordinator. Four steps: vote on dates, check the route, scroll the itinerary, review the budget. No committees, no 47-message group thread. Just click things.

Step 1: When are we doing this?

Two Friday departures, same cruise, same cities — just different start dates. Pick one and vote below.

Step 2: Where are we actually going?

Stop sequence

    Note: Both options visit the same cities — just in different order. Stop 6 (Kampong Chhnang) is a side trip up the Tonlé Sap river — the cruise loops back to Phnom Penh afterward.
    Why the flight? Late February is low water season on the Tonlé Sap. The river is too shallow for the Aqua Mekong to reach Siem Reap by boat, so everyone flies from Phnom Penh instead (~45 min, included in the cruise package).

    Step 3: What happens each day?

    The full trip, day by day. Days tagged organized tour are run by the cruise line. Days tagged flexible are ours to shape — that's where you'll pick hotel preferences. Keep scrolling past Siem Reap for optional extensions.

    Use these buttons to preview the itinerary for either departure date.
    Cruise direction: HCMC → My Tho → Sa Dec → Chau Doc → Phnom Penh → Kampong Chhnang

    Fine print (the boring but necessary stuff)

    • It will be hot. Expect 88–95°F with 65–85% humidity across the entire trip. This is Southeast Asia in dry season — manageable but real. If heat is a concern for anyone in your household, flag it now so we can plan around it.
    • Shared rooms (you're stuck with your spouse — sorry, not sorry).
    • Flights are on you. Pick your own routing, earn your own miles, blame your own airline.
    • Final price depends on cabin category and your appetite for upgrades.
    • Change a hotel pick in Step 3 — this total recalculates instantly.

    We've done this before. Let's do it bigger.
