Beijing Cruises for the Disabled Cruise Reviews

The Captain always concluded his PAs with, “Please enjoy the magnificent Golden Princess.” Sadly we didn’t find the Golden Princess to be magnificent at all but very tired and with problems. For us, this had to be our worst cruise/ship with Princess and we are their Elite members. We booked this cruise mainly for the Asian ports of call. We did enjoy visiting the various Asian ports. As we ...

The itinerary was amazing! We had never been to that part of the world. So, it was a fascinating cruise, except for Darwin. There was not much of anything there to see. The ship is tired! Of all the princess ships we have been on, this was our least favorite. The crew was as good as it gets! They are always eager to please. The entertainment was not up to par. The comedian told jokes that were ...

BEEN ON OTHER CRUISE COMPANIESO SO WANTED TO TRY IT OUT THE SHIP GAVE AN MIDDLE CLASS FEELING IN COMPARISON TO P&O SHIPS THE OLD RATING OF CRUISE SHIPS WERE TOURIST CLASS***MIDDLE CLASS***FIRST CLASS PASSENGERS SO I RATE GOLDERN PRINCESS AS MIDDLE CLASS EXCEPTING WHEN ON SHORT CRUISES WHICH SEEM TO ATTRACT TOURIST CLASS PEOPLE AND HEAVY DRINKERS ( TO BE CLEAR I AM A TOURIST PERSON ...

Entertainment was non-existent, two nights out of the whole cruise was good as for the rest forget it. The Cruise Director Tim is shameful really and should get together for the sake of Princess, passengers will drift away to another cruise line. Food in the dining room was repetitive, lacking taste, no sauces or gravies very dry. The salmon I ordered was so overcooked dry and horrible. We ...

Chose this cruise for the port destinations.The cabin we selected was excellent. However that was about the limit of anything good on the ship. Food was average, our experience in the restaurant was poor. So we went up to the buffet, which was marginally better. Some crew were fantastic others were new and needed further training. The management and officers were poor and you could tell by the ...

Embarkation poor. Disembarkation good. Ships A/C very poor cold on lower decks. 3 attempt to get a/c in the cabin and still not working.(deck 10) Beds of very poor quality and worn out. had overlay put on bed still no good finally got another mattress .(not new) had same problem on last Princess cruise, Entertainment very poor in 25 days only 3 performances of singers and dancers. All the usual ...

The inside cabin was a bit small compared to other ships we have been on. They could never regulate the air conditioning even though they tried to fix it, they never could. The ship was always cold and most of the passengers were sick with sniffles and coughs and the Asian flu. Going from very hot humid weather to freezing cold was ridiculous. The crew and staff were great. The entertainment ...

Reading other reviews I'm beginning to think I was on a different ship. Maybe we were just lucky but our cabin was beautiful, comfortable and clean. You could get food 24 hours a day and was delicious. Some cruise lines (P and O take note) charge for ice cream, fruit juice, and room service, Princess doesn't. I have been on many cruise lines (including Cunard) and Princess is the best. Of ...

We've become quite addicted to cruising, but this cruise really burst our bubble. Embarkation in Tianjin Port was chaotic at the time we arrived, due to long holdups on the highway from Beijing and buses arriving at the same time - the trip took 4.5 hours. However once inside the terminal building embarkation proceeded smoothly. It probably would have been better to start the cruise at our ...

We chose this cruise as it was a one way trip from Beijing to Australia and it worked well with a land tour of China we had booked. The service was good and overall the meals were great. The ports of call were interesting with stops in Osaka, Keelung (Taiwan), Hong Kong, Vietnam - Nha Trang and Ho Chi Minh City, Bali ( Benoa), Darwin, Brisbane (where we disembarked), then on to Sydney and ...
