Carrying just 148 passengers, the Yangzi Explorer provides the most personalized service of any vessel on the river. While other cruise ships accommodate over 300 passengers, the Yangzi Explorer serves as the market leader in offering an intimate cruising experience. International standards of service, delivered by a world-leading staff-to-guest ratio, ensure every level of comfort is catered for throughout the journey.
Complementing the attentive service are the largest and most beautifully appointed suites on the Yangtze today. The 58 Deluxe Suites measuring 31 sq m or 334 sq ft provide extreme spaciousness, setting the Yangzi Explorer apart from the typical cabins offered by other vessels. Additional options include 12 Ambassador Suites at 40 sq m or 431 sq ft and four stunning Celebrity Suites: the Jade and Mandarin Suites at 89 sq m or 958 sq ft, along with the Celestial and Imperial Suites at 105 sq m or 1130 sq ft. Every suite features a private viewing balcony to enjoy the kaleidoscope of ever-changing scenery through the gorges.
A team of internationally trained chefs designs innovative menus of both Chinese and Western dishes to satisfy the most discerning palates. Lunches and dinners feature complimentary house wines, local beer, coffee, tea, and bottled water, ensuring a seamless and premium dining experience.
The most spacious and indulgent spa on any Yangtze River cruise vessel, the Yangzi Spa serves as a haven of tranquility and rejuvenation. A comprehensive menu of services, including professional massages and beauty treatments, is complemented by a state-of-the-art fitness center, a full-service salon, and a sauna. This dedicated wellness facility provides the perfect environment for relaxation and revitalization throughout the journey.
The Yangzi Explorer is staffed by knowledgeable guides who support a program of daily lectures and shore excursions. As the most intimate ship on the river, shore excursions operate with fewer passengers than other vessels, offering a more informative experience at times less frequented by other groups. Onboard entertainment remains sophisticated and discerning, focusing on cultural engagement and refined atmosphere.
Environmental stewardship is a core principle of the Yangzi Explorer. State-of-the-art sewage disposal systems, comprehensive recycling facilities, and strict attention to the fragile Yangtze ecosystem are integrated into the vessel's design. These measures allow for the appreciation of the river's beauty while ensuring its preservation for future generations.
