A private 9-hour Chongqing highlights tour with hotel pickup, 3D city views, Liziba monorail photos, and river-bridge night lights.

“We had a really pleasant and informative day with our guide Song. Since it's a private tour we were pretty flexible with how much time we wanted to spend at each spot, when and where to eat etc. As it happened to be a Saturday we even had the opportunity to spontaneously decide if we wanted to watch the drone show that's happening every week. So that was a nice surprise at the end. We ended up doing two tours over two days with the same company and we were very well taken care of both times. Would highly recommend.”
