President No. 1, the flag-ship of the Presidential Cruises, is a 4 star cruise with the most spacious public area on board. It is well-known with its exquisite decoration, all-round facilities, safety, great comfort and superior-quality service. All the cabins have private balconies.
The ship was well run and quite pleasant, with a small dance floor where some entertainment was put on in the evenings. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the service was very good overall. The breakfast buffet was very good, with a selection of western and Chinese food. Lunch and dinner were exclusively Chinese food, which was different from what we had expected. However, the quality and quantity of the meals were fine.
The itinerary on board was good, with shore excursions to the Ghost City and a trip up the Shennong side stream in small boats. On the final night we transited the ship locks at the Three Gorges Dam, and on the final morning we visited the dam itself. We also had the benefit of seeing the total eclipse of the sun on 22nd July. The captain stopped the boat to give us a steady view for our photographs from the upper sundeck. This was truly spectacular, and a real bonus.
