Riviera Alba
Step aboard the Riviera Alba, where boutique elegance meets the gentle rhythm of river life.
Built exclusively for Riviera Travel, it’s our first ship outside of Europe. This intimate vessel welcomes just 50 guests into 25 beautifully appointed suites, each designed to reflect the charm and character of the Mekong region.
Designed with a low draft - meaning the ship sits higher in the water and can navigate shallower channels - the Riviera Alba is perfectly suited to explore the captivating waterways between Saigon and Siem Reap. The ship’s refined interiors, panoramic windows, and open deck spaces invite guests to unwind and take in the ever-changing scenery of the Mekong River.
On board, guests enjoy a high crew-to-guest ratio and attentive service throughout. Days are enriched with authentic Asian and international cuisine in the main restaurant, leisurely dips in the pool and jacuzzi or indulgent treatments at the spa. For quieter moments, the lounge bar offers a serene vantage point - the perfect place to sip a refreshing drink and watch riverside life drift by.

All meals are served in the main restaurant, where panoramic windows provide a beautiful backdrop to your dining experience. Enjoy a relaxed buffet-style breakfast while lunch and dinner offer a choice of an elegant set menu. Our skilled chefs craft each dish using carefully sourced local ingredients, blending international favourites with authentic regional flavours to ensure every meal is a delight.
Complimentary local wine, beer, and soft drinks are included with lunch and dinner, while water, tea, and coffee are available throughout the day.
Each afternoon, unwind with your choice of a complimentary sundowner - the perfect way to toast the day.
Guests can enjoy the welcoming atmosphere of the Saigon Bar and Lounge - a vibrant space for drinks, conversation, or quiet reflection. The Upper deck also features the reception and the cosy library and coffee area, ideal for a peaceful moment with a book or a chat with fellow travellers.
Spacious yet delightfully intimate, the Sun Deck is perfect for both socialising and solitude. Take a jog around the running track, or swim against the current in the jet pool. Prefer to unwind? Stretch out on a sun lounger, soak in the Jacuzzi, or simply enjoy the ever-changing scenery as the Mekong drifts by.
Please note: there are no dedicated kids or teens facilities onboard.
