A great bucket list trip. From start to finish it was well organized and the tour guides were knowledgeable, friendly and fluent in English. All the transfers from airports to the tour sites to the ship, etc, were well organized and painless. The hotel accommodations on shore were first class.

The ship was clean, the staff very friendly, the food was excellent but watch the wasabi - it's nuclear hot! The shore excursions and tours were very enjoyable and well conducted. Seeing the diversity in the landscape and how people lived and worked was interesting.

The ship was well appointed with standard-type staterooms all with individual room baloney. Amenities were good and the king style bed was excellent. The evening entertainment was interesting showing off the mix of Chinese culture and dress.
