Cruise Boat Design

The two sister boats named Dragon Eyes I and Dragon Eyes II were built in Mekong Delta river boats’ traditional style. Their slender, elegant, and shallow hulls enable the boat to travel not only on mighty rivers but also the small secondary side canals of the Mekong river which do not allow the larger cruisers to cruise. There we find hidden gems, get insight into local life and see serene rivers of Mekong Delta so unique.

In addition, the river cruise boats are too big so that they can not provide you with ample space for privacy and relaxation. Dragon Eyes I (or Dragon Eyes II) provides an area of around 100 m2 for customers and is considered a floating hotel.

Two spacy private cabins, each of which has an area of 14 – 16 m2, provides a beautifullly designed bath room, large bed, a romantic French balcony, individual air conditioning, fans, sitting area (chairs & table), and fabulous views of Mekong rivers through the large panorama windows.

On the sun deck on the top of the boat, you can enjoy a sunbath as well as the nice scenery passing by. The roofed outdoor restaurant is the great place to indulge in the Vietnamese culinary specialities. In your private bar on the top deck, you are free to enjoy a sun-downer and wonderful river views.

The Mekong Eyes boats were built by experienced local ship builders in traditional designs. Most of the furnitures and interiors are built from exclusive tropical woods, which are available with certification for sustainable forest plantation. The interior and the cabins were built by Vietnamese master craftsmen. All critical technical equipment including engine, rudder, navigation, air-conditioning, fire protection or water purification system were imported from Europe and Japan.
