Century Cruises, a luxury cruise company based in China, is now taking reservations, following eight months of global expansion efforts. The company has established a U.S. office, launched a new website and formed partnerships with several industry organizations during this period.
The cruise line operates along China's Yangtze River, offering four- and five-day cruises as well as longer itineraries from Chongqing to Shanghai. The company also provides four cruise tour packages for travelers seeking extended Asia experiences. Two 18-day tours — Imperial China with Japan and Imperial China with Vietnam — include complimentary Chinese visa processing.
Additional tour offerings include a 14-day Legend of China Tour covering Beijing, Xi'an, and Shanghai with a Yangtze River cruise component and a 19-day Dream of China Tour that incorporates Hong Kong along with mainland destinations.
The company is hosting more than 40 travel agents on a 14-day familiarization trip to China this September. Participants will visit Beijing, Xi'an and Shanghai, and experience a downstream Yangtze River cruise from Chongqing to Yichang aboard the Century Voyage, described as the newest vessel in the company's eco-friendly fleet.
"As we all know, the travel industry is one big family and supporting each other is essential,” said David Fredericks, senior vice president of sales and marketing. “What better way to demonstrate that than by offering something rarely seen 30% commission for our travel partners.”
