For all the sea in China

Great chance to see highlights of China and Japan on a 12-night Holland America Line fly cruise from £1,923 per person. The price includes eleven nights’ full-board on ms Volendam, one night in the five-star Imperial Hotel Osaka, return flights from the UK and transfers.

You depart from Heathrow on March 3, stay overnight at the Imperial in Osaka, Japan, before boarding the ship in Kobe. The cruise then calls at Nagasaki (Japan), Pusan (South Korea) and Dalian (China) before overnighting in Xingang (for Beijing, China). Volendam (above) then sails to Shanghai, where it also spends the night before going on to its final destination, Hong Kong.

While at sea, be pampered in the Greenhouse Spa & Salon, enjoy some cooking demonstrations in the Culinary Arts Centre and experience the ship’s restaurants and lounges. Visit www.hollandamerica.co.uk or call 0843 374 2300.
