Dear Wonder

Been swamped since my return. I did a survey form on my last leg with Rita and assumed this will close the chapter.

Overall I will rate 6.5. May I know when did you coordinate the cake?

The Chongqing accommodation is comfortable but away from heart of action and will prefer to stay in jiangbeifang vicinity.

Some of the meals can be better like in cigikou excursion but in all fairness Shery made extra efforts to improve and brought us to a sumptuous lunch on our last day in Chongqing, we appreciate it and also accommodating us on the alipay Weixin administrations. Thumbsup!

Sally from yichang, though short engagement but made an impeccable coordination to transfer our luggages from cruise to land. Thumbsup!

Rita, very hardworking guide with good attitude but lack the details level, I was honest with her in my survey. She took the efforts to adjust our menu, brought us to purchase our winter wear and accompany us after her working hours. Lastly I appreciate her efforts ordering my duffle bag online & made delivery to Changsha.

Simon, short engagement but he was very helpful to get the luggage locker for me.

Lastly you made the difference to coordinate this trip and certainly we will consider to re-engage your company

Cheers

Hi Wonder,

It went well. The cruise ship is clean, new and well maintained. Good and prompt service.

The guided tours are varied. Of the 3 tours we went, 1 was excellent, and the other 2 were so so.

Overall the cruise was fine, a tad slow pace for me, but suitable for my dad.

Thanks for your assistance,

Catalina

Hi Jack,

How are you doing?

The cruise was good although we did not have great weather. The accommodation was compact but comfortable and a great shower. The food was good and there was a wide variety of Asian and Western options, and the bar was good.

Thanks
