5-Day Yangtze River Cruise from Yichang to Chongqing Including the Three Gorges Dam

Escape China’s busy cities for a relaxing trip on the beautiful Yangtze River. On this five-day cruise, travel along the Yangtze River – the longest river in Asia – on a four or five-star ship. Cruise through the magnificent Qutang, Wuxia and Xiling gorges that make up the famous Three Gorges, and see the Fengdu ghost town and the Three Gorges Dam. Take included excursions on smaller boats to explore tributaries like the Shennong Stream or the Lesser Three Gorges, and enjoy delicious meals and entertainment on board the boat.

Discover a stunning piece of Chinese nature as you travel along the Yangtze River on a five-star cruise ship. Your tour starts in Yichang and takes you upstream to Chongqing, cruising through the Yangtze River gorges. Along the way, see the magnificent scenery of the Three Gorges (the Qutang Gorge, Wuxia Gorge and Xiling Gorge), and go on shore excursions to the Fengdu ghost town, the Shennong Stream and the Lesser Three Gorges (excursions and routes vary between the two different cruise ships – see the Itinerary section below for a detailed schedule). All excursions are included.

One of the highlights of this five-day cruise is the five-step ship lock that you will travel through in order to move upriver. It takes a total of almost three hours to pass through each lock! This one-of-a-kind experience is something you won’t want to forget, so make sure your camera is ready to go.
