 | ZhaoJun Cruiser Yangtze River Tour
There were unfortunately not a huge amount of positives for this tour - the sites were fantastic and great to experience, the ship was relatively clean and the food was okay. Tommi the ships guide was good but again as he was dealing with the Chinese passengers as well, he didn\'t have much time to make our experience a great one!
I would say that it is a bad idea to be advertising this ship as \"western\", there was only 1 other westerner on the cruise and the other 117 passengers were all Chinese. This led to the cruise being mainly Chinese tourist driven, for example: the food was all Chinese, the enterntainment was all Chinese and the biggest let down was all of the trips off shore were all in Chinese. We found it very difficult when the tour guides gave information on the sites in Chinese in great detail and as an afterthought they then said a few words in English, we felt that we missed out and that we had to push the guides to tell us more about things we visited. The ship was also very noisy and people were smoking in their cabins, depsite signs asking people not to do it, this may well be accepted in Chinese culture but again we did not expect this having signed up to a Western trip.
Many of the ships amenities were not there, i.e. cable T.V and other articles in the room. The other passengers were rude and sleep was difficult due to the noise of the other groups.
The route itself was stunning and well worth while but I would strongly recommend taking a cheaper option and experiencing the same things.
