2027 Itineraries Now Open for Bookings, Including Dedicated Solo Voyages in Europe, 
Exclusive Air Offers & Special Pricing Available for Limited Time

 

Riviera Travel, the leader in ultra-premium river cruise, ocean yachts, and land global travel for more than 40 years, today announced its expansion to Asia with the launch of a brand-new ship, Riviera Alba, setting sail on the legendary Mekong River in 2027. This news follows Riviera’s recent unveiling of the world’s first dedicated solo cruise ship, reinforcing the company’s commitment to growth and innovation. 2027 bookings are now open with limited-time savings of up to 50 percent off select departures and a two-for-one air credit. 

Riviera Travel has always been rooted in creating unforgettable experiences for our guests, providing unmatched service and endless opportunities for discovery, so this is a natural evolution for us,” said Stuart Milan, president of North America for Riviera Travel. “Our expansion to the Mekong brings our personal, award-winning approach to one of the world’s most enchanting rivers. We are excited to invite our returning guests, along with travelers who have yet to experience our product, to join us on this incredible journey.”  

Accommodating just 50 guests across 25 spacious suites, Riviera Alba will feature thoughtfully designed spaces, panoramic river views, and an open-air sun deck with a jacuzzi and pool. Onboard amenities will include a main restaurant serving both international and authentic Asian cuisines, a lounge bar, spa, library, coffee and tea lounge, and complimentary WiFi. A high crew-to-guest ratio ensures personalized service throughout the voyage.

Riviera’s new Vietnam, Cambodia and Mekong River Cruise itinerary will feature 14 expertly guided experiences, including a stop in Cambodia’s vibrant capital, Phnom Penh, with visits to smaller, lesser-known ports that offer a genuine glimpse into rural life.  Time in Siem Reap will let guests explore the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor, including Angkor Wat. Guests will delve into ancient temples, wander through lively local markets, and witness daily life unfold along the banks of this storied waterway. Starting at $5,049 per person, the 13-night itinerary is available to book now with departures between September and December 2027. 


Bookings for Riviera’s 2027 departures are now open, including two new solo itineraries – Budapest to the Black Sea and Cruise the Heart of Europe (Rhine, Main & Danube). Travellers who book by November 16, 2025, can save up to 50 percent on published brochure rates for 2027 itineraries. A two-for-one airfare credit is also now available on select 2026 departures when flights are booked through Riviera, valued at up to $1,500 per guest. This offer is available on new bookings made by December 5, 2025.
