Ports

Shanghai

For the past 15 years Shanghai has reawakened and regained its former glory as “The Paris of the East” in the 1920s and 30s. Its new skyscrapers seem to go up almost overnight, especially in the Pudong District, Shanghai's commericial center. And the air's electric with a sense of confidence and purpose.

Even the best museum, the Shanghai Museum, is but a decade old and already owns a collection of bronze that may well be the finest in the world. Still, there are a few more ancient sites worth your attention such as the pastoral, 16th century Yu Garden, an extraordinary maze of Ming Dynasty pavilions and bridges, encircled by an udulating dragon wall.

Lianyungang

A major trading line began here as early as the 7th century. During the excursion Lianyungang you will search for traces and witnesses of the "Silk Road of the Sea". The Buddhist cliff sculptures on Kongwang Mountain are of extraordinary significance from an art history viewpoint. Enjoy the view of the ocean from here, which delighted Confucius 2,500 years ago.

Qingdao

Qingdao is a sub-provincial city in eastern Shandong province. The unique combination of German and Chinese architecture in the city centre, combined with German demographic roots and a large Korean expat population, gives Qingdao a distinct atmosphere. Qingdao is the host city for several events of the Olympics, including the sailing competitions which will take place along the shoreline by the city.

MS HANSEATIC

Just like the legendary discoverer, the HANSEATIC also has a passion to explore new territories and hidden places. We anchor where other ship’s only sail by, take course for those destinations that are untouched and fascinatingly foreign. Such as the Arctic, Antarctic, as well as the Gambia River, the Amazons or the Orinoco. But we also cruise South America, Mediterranean or the West European Coast: on our “Expedition of Knowledge” you will be acquainted with and understand a multiple of new experiences. As on all HANSEATIC voyages, well travelled Lecturers will also guide you here, bringing you closer to the exciting unknown and point out new interesting sights to be seen – onboard and on land.
With a discreet 5 star rating onboard, we set sail every day into new worlds. How can the beauty which nature already provides and cultural treasures from an ancient civilisation be kept alive, the HANSEATIC will bring you close up to all of these. She has a very low draught, is small and agile, reaches very flat beaches and steers safely through intricate rivers. Thanks to her 14 Zodiacs, special robust rubber dinghy’s developed for such expeditions, the HANSEATIC casually brings you to all places, where there is either something exciting, extraordinary or rare to be seen.

Welcome onboard the HANSEATIC!
