We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would recommend it to our friends. The group size was no more than 7 once we left Beijing and this made for a fun and friendly tour. This allowed the guides to shine and added greatly to our visits to Xi'an, Chengdu, Chongqing and Shanghai. The organised meals were spot on with the best being lunch with a local family in Xi'an. Accommodation was first rate and complimented with a good breakfast spread. There was also some spare time and flexibility within the tour. Great tour at a good price. Thank you.Show more

Excellent tour, a lot packed into the first week, second week at an easier pace but tour guides nowhere near as good, and despite our expectations, the cruise was not the best part, as it came with a barrage of hard selling - from the moment we arrived on the boat and we were shown to presidential room in an attempt to get us to upgrade, to all the onboard and tour activities that our boat guide was instructed to sell to us. It rather spoilt what could have been a relaxing break. Still was an wonderful experience, China is a fascinating country with much to see and do. An added bonus was the discovery of western style toilets in so many places, sometime as the Disabled toilet, which we would never abuse at home, but seemed acceptable for tourists to use in China.Show more

Dear Colin Gow, The cruises on the Yangtze River Cruise did sell optional tours to their guests, or may provide options for upgrading the cabins when available. However, they should not give clients pressure on selling these services. We have forwarded your feedback to the cruise company and suggested them to be more sensitive about clients’ needs. Hope they will make improvements and enhance their service quality for good.
