The vessel will debut in August, offering three-, seven- and nine-night itineraries between Huay Xai and Vientiane in Laos.
Imagine a gentle drift down the legendary Mekong River, with views of the timeless landscape of Laos at every turn. A stop at a sleepy village one day; an encounter with locals steeped in centuries-old customs and culture the next; returning every night to your luxurious suite with sliding doors and a French balcony.
That's the promise of Anouvong - a brand-new small ship with just 10 suites. Operated by south-east Asian river-cruise specialist Heritage Line, the vessel will debut in August, offering three-, seven- and nine-night itineraries between Huay Xai and Vientiane.
Join guided excursions that take you to sustainable sanctuaries home to gentle elephants and visit riverside communities where locals play Laotian instruments called khene. When hunger pangs strike, make your way to the ship's bright, airy and decadently designed Cafe-Bar & Lounge, dishing up regional delicacies prepared using seasonal produce. Oh, and did we mention the glorious terrace deck? heritage-line.com
