During their stay, the tourists are scheduled to visit two ancient relics in Hue and Hoi An cities, and experienced traditional and cultural performances and foods.

The 46,000-ton ship, which is 203 meters length and has more than 700 luxury rooms, belongs to Prespige Cruise Holdingh.

Chan May port has also received 2,100 passengers from the Celebrity Millennium cruise ship which is famous for its grand design and impeccable service such as the shopping centre, dancing club, restaurant, martini bar, and swimming pools.

Nguyen Huu Tho, Chairman of Chan May Port Company Limited which manages the Chan May port said that as many as 33 international cruise ships plan to visit Chan May port with a total of 38,000 passengers on board this year-a positive sign for the local tourism sector.
