Chongqing to Yichang on a Victoria Cruises Yangtze trip with Three Gorges views, Fengdu culture, Taiji, and a Dam day, paced for real rest.

“Tour along the Yangtze river was a great experience. Food was amazing. Soft drinks and juices are included in lunch/dinner, so skip the drinking packages, they are not worth it. Drinks and cocktails are cheap anyway and there‘s not enough time in between to enjoy all of these flat rates. Staff is really friendly and helpful. However, if you enroll in all the excursions, get some drinks in the bar in the evening and the luggage transportation, be prepared to spend another good amount on the cruise ship 😅 Bring some cash for the guys that transport your luggage from the pier to the ship (there are hundreds of steps)…”
