=> RV La Marguerite Cruise Deck Plan:
In March 2019 I took an APT Travel marvel cruise on the Marguerite from Vietnam to Cambodia and whilst on board contacted amoebic dysentry and I ended up as an impatient at siem reap hospital. On this cruise a third of the passengers became ill with several ending up in hospital. I’m keen to hear from anyone who also cruised with APT Travelmarvel on the Marguerite in February or March this year.
