CRUISE ON THE YANGTSE RIVER

The Yangtse river is an incredible natural wonder stretching from Shanghai in North East right up to Chongking in the centre of China, with the three gorges being one of the main highlights. A cruise along the Yangtse river from Shanghai - Chongking would take at least a week. For most of our customers this would constitute approx. one third of the total time spent in China. Hence, the cruise from Wuhan to Chongqing is an ideal answer to those who wish to view the three gorges. Those who wish to cover the three gorges in a short space of time might wish to consider the catamaran ride from Yichange - Yichang. This can be done as a day trip.
The trip commences in Yichang, gateway to the Upper Yangtse River. It is approx. 4 - 5 hours by car or coach from Wuhan. Wuhan is well connected to Beijing, Xian & Guilin by train.
The Three Gorges: Xiling Gorge : the longest at 80 kms in length followed by Wuxia Gorge: the most interesting at a length of 40 kms and with 900m peaks on either side of the river . Then on to the smallest of the 3 gorges, Qutang Gorge: the shortest at 8 km in length but with the most fast flowing section.

For Ideas on Where to visit in China


Combine a trip on the Yangtse river along with a train trip with hotel accommodation for individuals (not groups).
