All things are wonderful. But we would have enjoyed sharing our meals and the table with our guides. This would have given us a chance to get to know the different food types better.

I took this itinerary two months ago, which was really a pleasant journey. The hotels listed in the itinerary are all fist-class with comfortable rooms and passionate services. The Three Gorges Yangtze Cruise is fascinating. The meals served on China Regal Ship is wonderful and the land activities during the cruise are also very colorful. The only flaw of China Regal Ship is the cabin space. Their standard cabins are comparatively congested for foreigners. So if you want to take this ship, you had better upgrade your cabin to suite. Overall, this is a good itinerary for the people who come to China first.
