Is the water onboard safe to drink?
We do not recommend the tap water on ship for drinking, although it has been purified and sterilized. Distilled water for drinking is placed in the cabin daily. Bottled mineral water is available on sale on all the ships. • How big are the cabins? Standard cabins vary in size but mostly measure between 8 and 16 sq metres not including the bathroom. Most cabins measure between 10- 12 sq metres. Some rooms have 2 sq metre private balconies. Splendid China has the largest cabin size at 22 sq metres. East king and East Queen also have expansive 14 sq meter rooms. Extra beds are not allowed in smaller cabins but are usually permitted if space is available. Suites are usually double the size of standard cabins. • In what language will on-board services be provided? It is possible to book guides with a variety of languages, though crew will most likely be more familiar with English. Please contact customer service for information on how to book tour guides with a variety of language skills.
