Heritage’s New Laos Ship

HERITAGE Line has announced the launch of a new vessel named Anouvong, specifically designed to traverse the upper Mekong River in Laos.

Due to be launched on 29 Sep 2020, the cruise line’s latest vessel will boast 10 luxury cabins equipped with state-of-the-art amenities, comprised of eight staterooms and two sprawling suites across two decks. All cabins have floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto either a French balcony (staterooms) or private balcony (suites), while the two Signature Suites showcase individually designed interiors with a large bathroom & jacuzzi. “Our aim was to build a luxury vessel with cabin sizes as large as possible, plus a range of enjoyable onboard facilities,” said Heritage Line’s Director of Sales and Marketing

Andreas Schroetter. “This was a challenge, as the Laotian Mekong River imposes natural restrictions such as fluctuating water levels, wandering sandbanks and winding curves that all impact the size of a ship,” he added. Common space features on the ship include an al-fresco terrace deck equipped with comfortable sun loungers and an air-conditioned Cafe-Bar & Lounge.
