Heritage Lines releases 2009 Jayavarman Mekong cruise program
With construction of its 58-metre luxury flagship The Jayavarman now well underway in the Ho Chi Minh City shipyards, Heritage Lines has released details and pricing for the Mekong Delta cruise itineraries the vessel will operate following its launch in September 2009.
The company has based its overall cruise program on a series of in-depth, hands-on experience-oriented Mekong River itineraries structured over three, four, five and eight days between Ho Chi Minh City and Siem Reap.
These include an eight-day ‘The Lost Civilisation’ itinerary between Ho Chi Minh City and Siem Reap, a five day ‘Serenity Cruise’ linking Phnom Penh with Siem Reap, a four-day ‘Pearl of the Orient’ program between Ho Chi Minh City and Phnom Penh and a three-day ‘Deep in the Delta’ offering passage from Ho Chi Minh City to the river township of Chau Doc.
Prices start from USD743* per person twin share in a superior stateroom for the three-day ‘Deep in the Delta’ program.
At the top of the range, the eight-day ‘The Lost Civilisation’ itinerary is priced from USD2675* per person twin share in a superior stateroom.
All prices include accommodation, full board and all cruise activities including excursions ashore*.
Heritage Line managing director, Thomas Peter said the various itineraries had been created to offer The Jayavarman’s passengers the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in the delta’s unique environment.
On shore activities, he said, will include visits to floating markets, bicycle rides to remote villages and fishing communities and getting involved with local humanitarian projects.
Passengers can even attend a cooking school run by a Vietnamese family.
*Conditions apply. Please note pricing does not include international airfares or beverages.
