Victoria Cruises
Experience the oriental wonder of China along the Yangtze on board a luxury river cruise with Victoria Cruises.
Since 1994, Victoria has been the leader in cruising along the ancient waters of the Yangtze and its magnificent Three Gorges. We have become the Yangtze’s prominent cruise line because of the quality of our fleet, our outstanding service and innovative itineraries. Today, Victoria Cruises has the Yangtze’s largest five-star fleet with more than half a million satisfied passengers having travelled with us.
The Yangtze is the longest river in Asia and one of the great river cruises of the world. It affords you an opportunity to relax and unwind, and enjoy some marvellous scenery during your China journey.
In addition to the popular cruises through the scenic Three Gorges between Chongqing and Yichang, Victoria Cruises now offers extended cruises between Chongqing and Shanghai featuring interesting stops at Wuhan, Huangshan and Nangjing.
All cruises sail through the ship locks adjacent to China’s new engineering marvel – the Three Gorges Dam – where a sightseeing tour is included.
While we have the best fleet of ships on the Yangtze, our greatest strength is our outstanding service provided by our staff, which includes expert western cruise directors, knowledgeable river guides and our very accommodating and well-trained crew.
Dining
Authentic Chinese with a mix of Western specialities is served during a single seating in the Dynasty Dining Room. There are also American-style buffet breakfasts and buffet lunches. Passengers can also enjoy a welcome cocktail party, daily afternoon tea and happy hour. We have also introduced expanded menus with more Western-style specialities and optional à la carte dining arrangements.
Accomodation
Ships feature cabins in four categories – Standard, Junior, Deluxe and Shangri-la suites. All cabins boast satellite TV. Junior suites are similar in design to Standard cabins but more spacious; Deluxe accommodations feature private living areas; and the luxurious Shangri-la suites boast a dining area and a larger private balcony. All ships in the fleet boast the same deluxe style and deacutecor.
