Discover Vietnam and Cambodia along Mekong River with Heritage Line’s Jahan Cruise

The Jahan, a luxurious vessel accommodating 52 passengers, is one of the two Mekong River cruises operated by Heritage Line, renowned for its glamorous decoration that pay homage to the elegance and legacy of the bygone eras.

The captivating Heritage Line Jahan Cruise envelops its guests in an evocative atmosphere that transports them back in time, reminiscent of the grandeur of former British-India. Bearing the name of the illustrious 16th-century Indian emperor and a generous patron of the arts, Shah Jahan, this majestic vessel has been meticulously crafted by Heritage Line, adorned with exquisite artwork and opulent furnishings sourced from India.

The ship boasts 26 exquisite staterooms and suites, each featuring spacious private balconies. Spread across three decks, this floating haven provides all the amenities of a luxury resort, encompassing a fitness room, an elegant restaurant, both indoor and outdoor lounges, a rejuvenating steam bath, and a superb spa. The East India Club-Lounge exudes an atmosphere akin to the British-Indian clubs of old, where ladies and gentlemen sought refuge from the heat, sipping Gin and Tonics. Following a few leisurely laps in the Mekong's largest river cruiser pool, or after indulging in a soothing spa treatment, one can retreat to the Observatory Lounge.

The Jahan navigates the lower Mekong River, traversing various itineraries between Vietnam and Cambodia. It offers seven-night voyages from Ho Chi Minh City to Siem Reap, or in reverse, along with three or four-night journeys between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, and a three-night cruise from Ho Chi Minh City to Phnom Penh. 

The voyages connecting Vietnam and Cambodia firstly present an opportunity for guests to explore the myriad facets of the Mekong Delta. The vibrant and dynamic pulse of floating markets on the river stands in harmony with the serene and charming life of the villages along the banks, where Vietnamese locals practice their specialized crafts. As guests cross into Cambodia, the expedition leads to the Kingdom of Angkor, where centuries-old marvels and Buddhist temples continue to captivate. Cruising on the tranquil waters of the Mekong, visitors will pass picturesque riverside villages. They will be able to delve into the historical narrative marked by trials and tribulations, bearing witness to the sacrifices of the Cambodian people during the Khmer Rouge era, as evidenced by war relics. Besides, the guests on cruise can immerse themselves in the local culture through participation in morning alms-giving ceremonies, interactions with monks at serene monasteries. Moreover, they will be taken to visit NGO schools, where children showcase their talents in music and art, and your applause evokes heartwarming smiles. Culminating the journey is Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia and a thriving inland fishery.
