Put into operation in 2019 as a new 5-star cruise, this 4-story work of art reflects the golden time of the Indochine period. Bearing the iconic embarks of the first ship by Bach Thai Buoi, Heritage Binh Chuan promises a luxury stay right above the emerald water of Lan Ha Bay.

The design is mainly inspired by the Indochine style but still able to express the tradition and culture of past time. With the intention of maximizing the coverage of natural lights, arched staircases and large windows are used everywhere. The cabins have their own private balconies and a large bathroom with huge glass windows for green Bay vista.
The first two floors of the cruise are distributed for visitors’ cabins - Delta and Captain Suite stand next to the wine cellar on the 1st floor, Ocean and Regal are on the 2nd - while the remaining floors are adorned for dining and entertainment purposes. There is a large sun lounge for multi activities such as morning Vovinam, outdoor cooking class, event parties, afternoon tea, or just simply lying on the benches to admire the stunning Bay.
Moreover, the only seasonal pool of Lan Ha cruise, and one of the largest onboard swimming pools, located on the top floor, will absolutely satisfy the need for a dip. For guests craving Vietnamese local food and international dishes, L’Indochine and Le Tonkin restaurants, a wine cellar, and a lounge bar can serve. Breakfast and lunch will be Asia plus Western buffet, dinner will be of fine dining style, small kids have their own custom-made order menu.
