Services and consumption of ordinary cruise ships:The ticket for a regular cruise ship only represents the proof of boarding and only includes accommodation for the corresponding cabin, so there are fewer services available on a regular cruise ship. The regular ones include dance halls (some of which are also used as restaurants), chess and card rooms (mainly mahjong), medical rooms, etc. The accompanying tour guide is a Chinese tour guide and generally does not include boat meals. You can order at your own expense (mainly Sichuan cuisine). The "New High Lake" cruise ship is a relatively special type of ordinary cruise ship. It can not only carry passengers, but also provide vehicle transportation services. Whether it is a motorcycle, a small car, or a passenger bus with more than 37 seats, as long as it meets the height requirement of less than 4.2 meters, it can be loaded, truly realizing the travel of people and vehicles in the Three Gorges.
Although the conditions of a regular cruise ship are a bit ordinary, the scenery seen is equally stunning. Moreover, due to its affordability and flexible routes, it has also been favored by many domestic and group customers.
