The Yangtze is the third longest river in the world. To sail on such a grand river, Viking built the Viking Emerald, which made her debut in 2011. Larger than most of Viking’s other river ships, the Viking Emerald has five decks and 128 staterooms, two of which are 603 square foot Explorer Suites. These expansive suites even include a full bathtub and wrap around veranda. Even if you don’t book one of the spacious Explorer Suites you’ll have plenty of room because all the ship’s staterooms include verandas. China itself is an expansive country and that’s why you’ll be glad to have the whole Viking team behind you guiding you through the country and giving you access to special performances from the Shanghai Acrobatic Troupe or letting you sit down for tea with a Tibetan family.
