 Bassac Heritage, an artist's rendering

The Bassac Heritage is the newest of the Bassac. It enters service on the Mekong delta in November 2027, on the same Cần Thơ ⇄ Cái Bè itinerary as the Bassac III, which it sails alongside.

With a large covered upper deck, a panoramic lounge and gangways all around, she can host a meal for the passengers of two ships in comfort. Access on board is broad and steady, and elderly or partly disabled passengers are safe.
