Hello - this is our first post! We are joining the Volendam in Hong Kong on 13th April and have booked an excursion with China Highlights which includes 2-day tours from Shanghai and again in Beijing with an overnight in a hotel there. We would like to know if anyone else is doing this tour who we could meet ahead of time. By the way, we are Australians, from Noosa in Queensland.

Welcome to the Cruise Critic and I hope you enjoy the Volendam. I have about 70 days on the Volendam since I first sailed in November 2001. She is a nice R Class ship. Enjoy your voyage.

Welcome to Cruise Critic - we are also from Australia. The Volendam is a favourite ship of ours - we've done two cruises on her, including one from Sydney to Hong Kong in 2012. One of the most memorable cruises ever.
