The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Board a private speedboat to Wuzhizhou, Hainan's crown-jewel coral island. Snorkel kaleidoscopic reefs, try a discover dive, and feast on just-caught seafood — all at your own pace on one of China's most pristine island escapes.
Stand before the world's tallest sea-based Guanyin statue — 108 metres of gilded serenity rising from the South China Sea — and explore the ancient Nanshan Buddhist complex with a private expert guide who unlocks its layered spiritual meaning.
Soak in Nantian's legendary geothermal mineral pools — 68 varieties of hot spring set in a lush tropical garden — with a private transfer and reserved poolside loungers. The ultimate port-day restoration for the discerning luxury traveller.
Witness the spectacular Legend Show at Sanya Romance Park — a cinematic outdoor performance of Hainanese mythology staged on a natural lagoon, seen from VIP front-tier seating with private transfers included.
Spend a sun-drenched day at Yalong Bay — China's answer to the French Riviera — with a private setup on its powder-white crescent, plus curated water sports including jet ski, parasailing, and banana boat, all arranged by your personal guide.
Walk the mythic 'End of the Earth' coastal rocks where ancient Chinese emperors sent their exiled scholars, then discover a living Hainanese fishing village and enjoy a private fresh-catch seafood lunch that no restaurant menu can replicate.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
