Day 3. You will enter the three gorges early in the morning and the chopped lofty peaks with narrow water channel in the mist impress all the travelers most. After lunch you will disembark at Badong for an excursion to the Shennong Stream. The trip features natural beauty and an exciting boat ride drifting along a crystal stream. The smaller boat allows you to experience a speedy adventure and have a close look at mossy rocks, verdant plants, and rare-met animals. The highlight of this outing is to watch the ancient coffins hang on the cliff for thousands of years, a mysterious phenomenon in ancient China.  Then you will be back onboard and your cruise will continue sailing into the western section of the Gorges. By the sunset you will pass the rest of the three gorges and enter a wider water channel. The cruise will be passing the locks at dusk or in the evening. You might get a glimpse of the grandness of the Big Dam and are deeply impressed by the huge project.
Day 4. After buffet breakfast, you will depart the cruise and won't  back anymore, please remember to pack your luggage the night before. The tour buses will pick all the passengers for the Grand Dam tour and you will have your lunch at the downtown of Yichang City. Then your private van will take you for a city tour and you will go to the airport afterwards.
If your cruise tour is in the opposite direction, that is to say that you want to go up the Three Gorges from Yichang to Chongqing, just remember that your guide and private van will greet you at the exit of Yichang airport and lead you a city tour afterwards. You will get on board your vessel in the dusk and enjoy your dinner on board. In the evening your vessel will pass all the locks and you will on the other side the Big Dam the next morning and start your Three Georges¡¯ Tour afterwards. And your journey will last one day longer as the up-stream speed is much slower than that of downstream. Please keep in mind that you add one day more in your schedule when you design your tour calendar up to Chongqing.
