Tauck River Cruises

The 361-foot luxury vessel will be used exclusively by Tauck, and carries a maximum of 116 guests who will enjoy the care and personal attention provided by Tauck Directors. The new ship includes amenities ranging from wireless internet access to a sauna, steam room, spa and 24-hour Jacuzzi. The ship is highlighted by an open, airy design with plenty natural light, and it's tastefully decorated in teak, marble, brass, wrought iron and glass.

Boasting a 180 degrees glass wall that fully opens for inside-outside cocktails at the end of each day, the Lido Bar also offers coffee and tea, cappuccino, soft drinks and snacks throughout the day. Guests can get in a workout in MS Swiss Jewel's fitness center; curl up with a good book or catch up on the news in the reading/Internet corner; or relax on the topside sun deck (complete with 24-hour Jacuzzi) or in the panoramic lounge.

MS Swiss Sapphire's three passenger decks are custom-designed to graciously accommodate 118 Tauck guests. Throughout the ship, panoramic windows provide spectacular views of the passing shoreline. In addition to a roomy topside sun deck, steam room, spa and 24-hour Jacuzzi, the ship invites relaxation in the lounge or in its teak-lined Lido Bar on the Aft deck.

MS Treasures debuts in 2011 and is operating exclusively for Tauck. The ship features three passenger decks custom-designed to comfortably accommodate 118 Tauck guests in gracious style. Guests enjoy exceptional vantage points throughout the ship; panoramic windows provide spectacular views of the passing shore.

Newly refurbished in 2008, carrying just 124 passengers, the MS Yangzi Explorer offers the finest and most personalized service of any ship sailing the river.
