This is something that has been done for years! The level of luxury, of course, has changed over the period of time, what with Royals taking this route first to mere mortals taking the tour. But this is still a luxurious and tranquil experience. Cruise along the majestic Yangtze River, passing through the Three Gorges region, home to thousands of years of history and timeless natural beauty.
Sit back, relax and enjoy!
Yichang to Yangtze Cruise
Land at the port from airport/railway station in Yichang to board five-star Yangtze Cruise for 4 nights on-board. Set sail at night. The adventure begins!
Activities : Boat Cruise , Beaches Sightseeing
Three Gorges Dam / Xiling Gorge
While you were snoozing the cruise has reached the Three Gorges Dam at Sandouping, the largest in the world.
Later sail through the Three Gorges Dam ship locks. Sail through Xiling Gorge, the longest (41 miles), and the deepest of the Three Gorges.
If the river conditions are favorable, we will catch a glimpse of life in the Xiling Gorge region, the Tribe of the Three Gorges Excursion. Else, simply relax on board
Activities : Sailing
Small Gorges
We take a break from your luxurious quarters on deck to transfer to another vessel for a relaxing excursion through the attractive gorges of Goddess Stream. Again, if the river conditions are great, an alternate excursion may be substituted to the gorges of Shennong Stream.
We then enter the Wu Gorge, known for its quiet beauty, forest-covered mountains, and cliffs so sheer that the sun barely penetrates the precipices.
This brings us to the dramatic part of the cruise, sailing through Qutang Gorge - the shortest (5 miles), narrowest (500 feet).
Again, if the river conditions are ideal, you can take a Shore Excursion to White Emperor City, an ancient city overlooking the western end of Qutang Gorge.
Activities : Boat Cruise
Shibaozhao
Wake up and take a shore excursion to Shibaozhai, with its impressive wooden pagoda, appropriately named “The Pearl of the Yangtze”. It's an established fact by now, if river conditions are great, an alternate excursion may be substituted to Fengdu, visiting either the new relocation village built for families who have moved as a result of the Yangtze’s rising waters brought about by the Three Gorges Dam.
And again, if the river conditions permit, an additional Shore Excursion to Fengdu’s “Ghost City”, known for its statues of ghosts and devils on Mingshan Hill. Well, creepy dreams for the night!
Activities : Beaches Sightseeing
Chongqing
End the cruise at picturesque Chongqing, the “Mountain City”. Meet our local guide to reach the Chongqing airport for your departure flight.
