Yangtze treasures
Sanctuary’s Yangzi Explorer prides itself on being a step above other ships of the imposing Chinese river. It is much smaller (only 124 passengers), has the largest rooms, all with private balconies, the highest crew-to-passenger ratio (one-to-one), and a two-deck theatre for local entertainment. Sanctuary Retreats – which has a small collection of river cruises and safari lodges – has four-night Yangzi Explorer cruises upstream from Yichang to Chongqing, and three-nighters downstream which can be combined. Excursions are included to the Three Gorges Dam, Shennong Stream (a tributary between huge rock walls) and Fuling (with its ornate Fuling Mausoleum). Departs regularly from March to November 2020, combined cruises cost from $2,650pp (about £2,000pp), based on two people sharing, cruise only, including wine and beer and excursions (00 95 (0)9 970 039990; sanctuaryretreats.com).
