Century Paragon

Dear Karina,

Thank you for the pleasant communication. You have helped and informed us very well.

The cruise was lovely too!

How did you find your overall cruise experience? Was there anything that stood out to you?

The food was great, all staff was lovely. Good entertainment for children.

Do you have any suggestions for improvement—whether regarding the itinerary, onboard facilities, or other aspects of the service?

The announcements were made unexpectedly and loudly in our room. We could not turn them off or lower the volume. Some announcements were even after 22:00, with a sleeping baby. Would be good to have an option to turn off the announcements in the room.

We also value your honest opinion about our travel consultant’s service. Was there anything I could have done better to make your experience more enjoyable?

Service was really good, you answered all of our questions very clearly and quickly. Thank you for that!!

Kind regards,

Ariana and Miran

Dear Mr Elk

The whole journey was very well organized and your assistence during it highly appreciated. Booking with your agency is highly recommendable. We stay one day more in Hongkong and will fly back to our hometown tomorrow.

All the best

Hi Tammy,

Yes, we made it home safe and sound. The cruise was fun. I would have sent you updates but my WeChat was blocked the day we were cruising through the gorges. I asked the cruise director to help me unblock it but it didn't work. Can you try to help me please? It needs to be someone who is a friend and meets the conditions below. If you're willing to do this, please give me your phone number.

The staff on the cruise were fantastic; very friendly and helpful. The room was nice, a good size and well finished. My wife felt hot during the night as the aircon came on and off. When we reported this to the crew, they did their best to sort it out first by checking that the balcony doors were closed. When this did not solve the problem, they brought a fan for us. The food was tasty and plentiful. Seats in the dining room were assigned and we sat at a table with 3 other independent traveller couples. They were interesting and it was nice to get to know them during the cruise.

The highlight for me was going through the gorges. Unfortunately it was raining while we went through the Qutang Gorge but it was still impressive to watch from our balcony. By far the best excursion was Shennv Stream. The others were extremely loud and overcrowded; no surprise as it was Golden Week. Our guide to the Tribe of three Gorges, Sunny, was great. It was disappointing that we had to disembark in Fengdu because the river level was low. It certainly was low and we had been warned. But that gives us a reason to go on another cruise! Would October be a better month? Although before we do that, I'd like to visit Zhangjiajie.

Overall, the organisation was very good, nice staff as I've said, and we were kept informed all the time. I read a book about the Yangtze during the cruise and leant a lot about the history of the area. I'd definitely recommend it to others. I've attached a photo of the Century Paragon

aka Shi Ji Shen Hua taken from the Fengdu Ghost City.

Thanks for helping us book it and giving us tips during our stay in Yichang.

Kind regards,

Nick

Tracy,

Everything is up to our expectations.

I will definitely refer my friends to Yangtse cruise & to you personally too.

Keep up the good work.

Regards,

Mr Yew

Reya,

It was simply amazing and phantastic. I will certainly recommend this tour to others. We had a great great time and were treated like VIP. The todays stop at the dam was not too good the other side direct at the dam would be better, but this is only a minor thing. Our tour guide on board Summer was excellent!!!!

Hi Shirley,

Thank you for the new year wishes. The cruise you help arranged for me was very good.

Thanks

Josh

Hi Shirley

I will appreciate your assistance. Your services and assistance was excellent. The cruise itself for my opinion it needs improvement for foreigners customers. I upgraded the room to level 5, because they told me that our booking didn’t include the day trip. Thanks

Hi Wonder,

We very much enjoyed the cruise thank you. Especially made welcome by Austin on the boat who looked after us English speakers extremely well. The room was comfortable and all the activities very appropriate and well organised. We also used the swimming pool on the boat twice or more times.

The documentary about the three gorges shown in the cinema the night before our visit there was excellent in helping us to understand what happened with the dam. It could have been better publicized but we managed to get there and really enjoyed. However the visitor site of the dam needs to have more English captions for us to really appreciate. We were surprised how little English translation there was at the biggest dam in the world.

The place where you embark on the boat in Chong Qing was more difficult than I had imagined - there was nowhere really to park. Not sure what you could do as a solution for that?!

Thank you for arranging for us,

Denise.

Dear Evelyn,

I love every moment of it. Thanks to you to be such a good coordinator. I definitely recommend my friends to use your service.

Thanks

Hello Wonder,

The cruise was a great success and we were all very happy and satisfied.

Corresponding with you was very efficient and your patience in helping us with all our problems was remarked by each of us!

The ship was really first class: the rooms, the meals, the personnel, the arranged tours, in a word: everything was over our expectations and we would certainly recommend your services to any friend who might be interested in the Three Gorges Cruise.

Thanks once again for your help and all the best!

Giovannni

Good morning Rita,

Can you send me your contact card for WeChat so I can share it with a friend. Thanks

Steven

Hi Wonder,

We all arrived home safely on late Thursday evening 8 June.

Overall it was an interesting and enjoyable holiday for us. We all had a wonderful time on the cruise. From cleanliness of rooms to meals arrangements and entertainment programs it’s a thumbs up from us.

The lunch at Yichang was the best overall. Both touring in Yichang and Chongqing were nicely arranged.

The cruise was wonderful. I have no complaints. The chef was accommodating and all the staff were friendly and helpful.

I would be interested in another cruise in the future. What other cruises are offered in China?

Heather Brown

Hi Wendy,

Thank you! And let me tell you that everything was perfect Wendy. Thanks for organizing such a wonderful trip with so good people.

Flavia

It’s great. We’re having a brilliant time, thank you.

Dear Leo,

All good, the only thing I can think of is if they could upgraded their gym but I’m thinking I’m the only one who has ever used it. Everyone was really nice, I just wish there were more passengers to enjoy their hospitality.

David

Dear Lyn,

Hello Riley,

Good morning, thank you so much. The cruise was wonderful. I fully enjoyed it and will possibly take another one again and recommend my friends. I'm actually leaving Chongqing now. It's too crowded and not many people are wearing masks, so I want to be extra safe. I'll travel again to here when it's not the holidays

Samantha

Dear Tracy,

Trip good- all home safely!! Thanks

Mr. Graham Mac Donald

Thankyou Vivien and the team

My mum and I are in Spain where I live and we have been in total lockdown for 11 days now and have at least another 19 days, we have to stay at home other than going to supermarket for essentials or pharmacy.

We loved our cruise and I actually wrote a blog about our whole trip so other people can do it and I added a link to your company

I am glad to hear it is improving in China and hope this passes quickly so next year we can come back to your lovely country

Saludos

Dear Rita,

During this hard period of time in CHINA our hearts are with the people of CHINA. We listen and watch the news and are deeply sorry for the terrible events in Hubei Province and we see with big sorrow the empty streets in Beijing and many other cities. We are positive that the Chinese medical system together with the people will overcome the Corona virus Disease, but the cost of lives is very high. We see that many people are afraid to go out of their homes, schools are closed and also all public places. Tourists are not coming, which is very bad for the Chinese economy.

My wife and myself love CHINA and the Chinese people. Although we do not know the Chinese language, we have found that we can quite easily communicate with the people in the street, in the train stations and in various places we have visited. The people are very helpful, trying to assist give direction and answer questions.

We are sure that we shall visit CHINA soon. My wife has visited China 6 times. I have been to China many more (over 30). First time in 1992.

We wish you Happy New Chinese Year. We hope life will soon get to normal. We wish you and your family, friends and co-workers in your company to be in good health and happy in the days to come.

Love from Israel and from us personally

Nurit and Beny Arad

Hi Rita,

Hi Yanni,

Thanks to your efforts, we have enjoyed our trip and safely come back to Hong Kong.  All the transits were smooth and the hotels were comfortable.  Our guide, Carol, was awesome too.

Many thanks,

Youngnan

Dear Riley,

Thank you for your arrangement and follow up for our China trip. Everything is going well with your help. We got the train tickets once we checked in at Beijing Hotel. Tomorrow we are going to Xian.

The cruise experience exceeded our expectations. We upgraded to executive suite at acceptable price with more spacious room at Level 5 and other privileges including VIP restaurant, free 24 hrs lounge access and free laundry. The cruise manager Jeffrey was very attentive and other staffs are helpful.  The excursions were well organized and the local guides spoke good English.

We are looking forward to our next trip and your further assistance.

Best regards,

Luciana

Hello Mark

Thank you for your email. I apologise for the delay in replying but I have had some computer issues that took some time to resolve.

The cruise was excellent with the onboard services (food, accommodation and services) to a very high standard. We had some excellent weather that made the scenery that much more spectacular. I would certainly recommend the Century Paragon to any of your clients.

I have attached some pictures of some of the scenery along the trip.

With my best regards

David

Hi Wonder,
Thanks for your message. We are slowly getting back into our normal routine, hence the delayed reply.
The cruise was fantastic. Definitely a highlight of our three weeks in China.
We were extremely impressed with the service provided to us. Our travel consultants handled all queries in an efficient and professional manner.

They were quick to answer questions, and any concerns were addressed in a prompt manner.The cruise was very good. The Century Paragon ship was clean and well maintained. The cruise manager, Jeffrey, had a fantastic sense of humour and glowing personality. The staff throughout the ship were friendly and attentive. The post-dinner events each night were entertaining. The shore excursions were interesting. It was helpful having tour guides communicating with us in English, however some of the guides were less than confident in their English-speaking abilities, and we did not get the same information that was being given to the Mandarin speaking guests. The cruise photographers were able to capture a lot of good memories.

I would not hesitate to recommend your company to friends and family. The service provided was friendly, helpful, and of a high standard.

Kind regards,

Jennifer

Hey Vivien,

Sorry I have done it right after our tour but it seemed there was a problem and it didnt show up. now i did it again (in german) and it showed up.

Thanks for caring for us we will recommend you to our friends.

Best regards 

Thomas

Hey Vivien,

We arrived in chongqing today, we really liked the cruise. now we thought that it would be better to have a guide to do some sightseeing in chongqing. Do you think it would be possible for us to book a tourguide over your office for tomorrow 10.00 am? we stay at the glenview itc hotel. Thank you for your help!

Best Regards
