5-star perfection!

Review for a Asia Cruise on Scenic Spirit

WashougalGuy
2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Everything was top-notch about this cruise. The service was impeccable: everyone, and I mean everyone, treated you like the special customer you want to be, including much of the staff learning your name from the first day. The food was consistently great, although not spectacular, and an good effort was made to make local food available at all meals. The variety and care taken on the ...

Myanmar and Irrawaddy Cruise

Review for a Asia Cruise on Scenic Aura

Robyn Mac
10+ Cruises • Age 60s

Our time in Myanmar was fantastic. Having a day in Yangon prior to the tour was beneficial and we were rested and saw some different sites to those included. The hotels prior to and after the cruise were excellent Our tour guide, Tin Pa Pa Min was the best. She looked out for every hidden opportunity and was full of fascinating information. On board Scenic Aura the staff were ...

Mekong experience

Review for a Asia Cruise on Scenic Spirit

wjs2000
10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Cruise was everything expected, and then more. Excursions were very good and showed us examples of life along the Mekong as well as providing interesting dining, both on the ship and off. Local restaurants chosen provided a good selection of local oriented food. Guides were very knowledgeable and communicated information well. Provided local perspectives on historical events. Small groups made it ...

Very personalized

Review for a Asia Cruise on Scenic Spirit

GiseleBoisvert
2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Have been recommended by out travel agent. I was disappointed by the lack of respect for my gluten free and dairy product diet onboard. Every day, every meal, I should ask if it is correct for me, but most of the time, answers were approximative. At the mid-time of the cruise , I started some gastrointestinal discomfort wich are lasting until the end of the cruise.The information have been ...

Review for a Asia Cruise on Scenic Aura

10+ Cruises • Age 80s

This is a great way to see and experience Myanmar and to learn more of its history and its peoples. Scenic have wonderful people in their crew and as their Tour Guides. All locals and keen to educate about their culture. The Scenic Aura accommodates maximum 44 in 22 cabins (all more suites than rooms) and on our trip we had 33 pax and 38 crew. Could we be more pampered? The Inle Lake extension to ...

Sailing with Lindblad to SE Asia

Review for a Asia Cruise on Jahan (Lindblad)

Sharon Bonita
2-5 Cruises • Age 70s

First and foremost, a trip with Lindblad always means perfection to me. Nothing is left to chance. And everyone connected with the trip is always stellar. I was not a fan of the decor on The Jahan but the cabin was roomy and the bed comfortable so I overlooked the decor for the most part. Most of us on ship thought that we needed more light in our cabins but honestly other than that, no complaints ...

Appalling Pandaw Experience

Review for a Asia Cruise on Kindat Pandaw

PJ33
2-5 Cruises • Age 70s

A 14-day river cruise on the Ganges from Varanasi to Kolkata aboard a luxury shallow-bottomed river boat with fascinating daily excursions - if only! We had signed up for an "adventurous expedition" and were to be prepared for the unexpected. So I guess we should not have been shocked when we arrived at the hotel in Varanasi with bags packed ready to go on board to be told there's been a ...

Fascinating, if at times fraught, cruise through over 2000 years of history.

Review for a Asia Cruise on RV Kalaw Pandaw

LockeyHill
2-5 Cruises • Age 70s

Pandaw is an excellent company and the Ganges has more to offer in the way of palaces, temples and ancient ruins than any other river in Asia. We knew that the ship would actually be run by an Indian management company but the standards were as good as other Pandaw cruises: a lovely boat, replica of the 19th century river boats of Asia, excellent Indian food, friendly and highly competent staff. ...

“ Appalling “ and dishonest treatment by Pandaw

Review for a Asia Cruise on Katha Pandaw

Mark JC
2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

We travelled to Kolkata on 10 October , looking forward to Pandaw’s inaugural 14 day cruise up the Ganges to Varanasi. Late in the afternoon of 11 October ( the day before departure ) we were told that the cruise was not going to take place . We later found out that the stated reason , namely a closed lock at Farraka , had been known to Pandaw since 4 October ( at the latest ) . Pandaw ...

Very Disappointed with Viking's China Roof of World Trip

Review for a Asia Cruise on Viking Emerald

Gregory S Gush
6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

Was looking forward to a great adventure in China. It was a very disappointing trip. So much so, that I don't think I'll trust Viking again. We spent $22k. I don't think the trip was worth half that. Don't waste your money! We are done with Viking!!! I don't trust them now! The cruise ship, Emerald was run down, old, tired, and certainly not luxury. We upgraded to a suite but didn't get ...
