Had a great time on all the excursions (except Cambodia when my allergies went crazy). As always fun and educational - yes learning is part of traveling!! I had no idea Viet Nam was such a beautiful country. Halong Bay was the highlight!! Traveling with this group is always an adventure. Thanks again Brian!!

So glad you enjoyed Kevin. And i'm glad you didn't get sick like a few others did in Cambodia!! I agree, Vietnam was so beautiful--i wanna go back!

As always Brian provides a wonderful experience. This trip to Southeast Asia was fantastic. The stop in Hong Kong was beyond expectations. Thank you

I loved the Hong Kong extension of the Asia Daddy Cruise. It was a big highlight for me. I enjoyed the whole cruise (and also Singapore), but was always looking forward to seeing Hong Kong. I had a great time there, and enjoyed the sites that we visited with the group. And the lunches were excellent. So much food! :)

Post cruise in Hong Kong was really great. The two days of bus tour was awesome, about 30 people in the group, we didn't spend long on the bus, the stops were interesting, we finished and got back to our hotel a few minutes early each day, the days were not too long. The restaurant for lunch the first day seemed a bit chaotic, however it was good to see that we were the only White people there, it was filled with locals. Two small suggestions - - you might want to find a gentle way to remind people having a group lunch that when a shared plate of food arrives, we should each take a small portion - the first few guys should not load up their plates, leaving not enough to go around for the rest of the group. - the tour guide (Peter) kept looking for the people who do not eat pork, but had to be reminded (twice) that some of us do not eat shellfish. Our hotel location was great, it was easy to get to other places. THANKS!

Thanks for the feedback Josh. And ugh! i can't believe we have to tell people to be considerate, but we'll do that next time for sure! See you in London in June for our next adventure together!!

I think these excursions were some of the best. My only criticism was that this group of men formed cliques very quickly. I think I’m pretty friendly but we literally couldn’t get eye contact or conversation from most of the guys. I was a little shocked and disappointed. That’s why we stopped going to the happy hours and games. It was especially tough since I was in a lot of pain on the excursions and ended up feeling like an impediment. Not due to anything you were doing. There were people onboard who I knew and when I said hello wouldn’t talk to either of us. If this had been my first cruise I’d never come back for another. None of that is a reflection on you and I think I was my usual self but who knows. I must admit I feel safer when I’m with other people of color I know. I had a racist experience with one of the guests in our group on the prior cruise so went into this one a bit lacking in trust.

Hi George, Thanks for your feedback. I'm so sorry your experience was not what you are used to having with us! Especially with guys you knew from prior cruises that were standoff-ish this time--so weird. I thought you were the same, delightful self you always are, and Tim and I loved when we got to hang out with you guys! I'd love to chat sometime to learn more about your experience, and gain any insights you may have for how we can improve things for you--and others--going forward! Despite your knee pain, you were a trooper and I'm glad you did enjoy the excursions.
