Kagoshima & Okinawa Cruise

Shanghai unfolds as a city where every corner tells a story, inviting travelers to step into a realm where the past coexists with the sprint towards tomorrow. Here, the hum of markets, the quiet of ancient gardens, and the awe-inspiring heights of skyscrapers form a mosaic of experiences. Venture from the historical depth of the French Concession's tree-lined avenues to the futuristic pulse of the Pudong skyline, discovering a city that thrives on diversity—from the culinary delights of Xiaolongbao to the artistic corridors of M50.

Cruises dock at the Shanghai International Cruise Terminal, strategically situated for easy access to the city's myriad attractions. This modern gateway is merely 3 kilometres (about 1.86 miles) from the bustling city center, translating to a quick 10-minute ride into the heart of Shanghai’s vibrant fusion of experiences.

Kagoshima lives in the shadow of Sakurajima, an active volcano that last erupted in 2016. In addition to being the capital of the Kagoshima Prefecture in Japan, the city is home to ancient castles and traditional Japanese Gardens that delight locals and visitors alike.
