Absolute Asia/Asia Cruises/Jayavarman Heritage Line

Overview

The Jayavarman is the flagship of Heritage Line’s unique collection of ships, named after the famed Cambodian king, Jayavarman VII, celebrated for his peaceful nature and passion for art, having built some of the most renowned temples of the Angkor civilization.

The Jayavarman’s interior boasts a charming French-Colonial design complemented by elegant Khmer accents. The public areas are adorned with fine art pieces, giving the ship the feel of a floating art gallery. This welcoming atmosphere makes guests feel at home from the moment they step aboard. An open kitchen adds a special touch to the onboard culinary experience.

The ship navigates the lower Mekong River, offering various itineraries between Vietnam and Cambodia.
