Sanctuary Retreats, which began life as a safari camp in Kenya, has relaunched its expedition river cruise ship in China, the Yangzi Explorer.

Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer has 38 deluxe cabins which are the largest entry-level cabins on the river, as well as 20 suites and 4 specialty suites. All cabins and suites have private balconies and the ship offers the highest crew to passenger ratio on the river of 1:1.

The 20 suites and 38 deluxe cabins have been upgraded in a modern Chinese style, with artwork, stylish textiles and soft furnishings and ‘silver-leaf’ wallpaper designs featuring a mudan, or peony, which is native to the Yangtze region.

Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer has a wide range of on-board cultural offerings, including talks about Chinese history and traditions, Tai Chi and Chinese massage as well as the opportunity to learn the art of calligraphy, dumpling making and to take part in the all-important tea ceremony.

Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer offers three-night cruises from Chongqing to Yichang and four-night cruises from Yichang to Chongqing.
