重慶揚子江クルーズとイルミネーションナイトツアー

The guide was 15 minutes late picking us up. I asked her about the drone show tonight as we were assured by her office that we will be able to watch the drone show from the ship. She denied & said most likely we will be able to see part of the show but no guarantees. Upon boarding the ship, all the seats were were taken & the only way we will be able to get a seat & see the drone show was to pay another 160RMB. That was very much a surprise. We did eventually see the drone show.

I’d give more stars if I could. Our guide David was the best tour guide we ever had, and that’s saying a lot as I have been to over 100 countries. David showed us many great places and always took care of us and expertly moved us through the crowds. I cannot recommend this tour with David enough!

A great way to experience Chongqing at night. David our tour guide made sure that we were at the attractions on time and showed us all the best spots. I really recommend this tour.

We were not prepared for what Chongqing had to show us at night. It was a great light show, from such a futuristic city

What a great night , Royce was such a great guide he went above and beyond, very professional and really knows Chongqing. I would recommend this tour when visiting Chongqing. Thanks Royce

We were picked up by “Jim” and his driver. Jim’s English was very good. As we drove to the cruise boat, he explained a little Chongqing history. On the boat, he explained so many things. He was professional, a gentleman, and engaging, and answered all of our questions. We had been to so many places, and he offered to take us to a lively street that we had not been to-and we loved it! It was a delightful trip, we really appreciated having Jim with us!

Very nice and knowledgeable guide, learnt a lot about the city, had a chance to view the city from various angles

Better to have more details about the cruise timing. We thought we were stopping somewhere for photoshot before the cruise. But when we were pick up from hotel. We found out we started with the cruise first. The local guide should adjust the pick up time in consideration of the traffic and cruise start time. This will give travellers a bit more time to walk from the drop off point to the pier. 10 mins is a rush. The local guide must know the cruise time, i.e. purchase ticket in advance. The guide is experience. Not sure whether being taken the first cruise is an advantage. However, most of the light is on when dark, but the bridges night did not turn on until at least 20 mins after the cruise started. The whole cruise time is about an hour. So being on the first cruise does not give 100% night view for the whole hour. Also better to let the travellers know, to expect you may have to stand for the whole hour, since we were almost the last few people get on the ship. No available seat. However, there are some VIP seat indoor, would be good to give this option for travellers, even with additional cost.

Jim our guide very friendly and hugely knowledgeable. Arrived on time and accommodated our request to leave early for food. Views spectacular. And unexpected drone show at the end!

If the weather is good and you have an evening to spare in Chongqing, the 7th Wharf riverboat cruise is an unforgettable experience that should not be missed. We took the last cruise of the night at 9:50 PM, arriving well-fed after an amazing hot pot dinner. While we didn’t dine on the boat, the atmosphere was perfect for relaxing and soaking in the illuminated skyline of the city—an ideal setting for photos and lasting memories. The highlight came at the end of the cruise, with a lively cultural performance featuring traditional Chinese dance, an impressive face-changing act, and a small exhibit by a renowned local painter—with the opportunity to purchase a piece as a keepsake. These touches added a wonderful cultural flair to round out the evening. The cruise concluded around 11 PM, leaving us with a renewed appreciation for the beauty of the city at night. Tickets for these mini cruises are widely available at various locations throughout the city during the day, making it easy to plan ahead. Highly recommended!
