Highlights of the Itinerary
  • Dual UNESCO Karst Wonders in One Day
    The tour covers two core scenic areas of the South China Karst World Natural Heritage, showcasing two distinctly different karst landforms. The Three Natural Bridges features one of the world’s largest natural arch clusters set within a colossal tiankeng sinkhole, with towering stone bridges and ancient post house architecture. Longshui Gorge Rift presents a dramatic, deep-slit canyon flanked by sheer limestone cliffs hundreds of meters high, with cascading waterfalls and lush vegetation, offering an immersive journey into a spectacular geological “crack of the earth”.




  • All-inclusive Comfortable Sightseeing Arrangement
    All on-site transfers and facilities are fully included to minimize physical exertion: scenic environmental shuttle buses for both scenic areas, the 135-meter Tianlong Spiral Elevator for a panoramic descent into the sinkhole, exit battery cart for the Three Natural Bridges, and the descending elevator for Longshui Gorge Rift. This arrangement eliminates strenuous uphill climbs, making the gorge exploration relaxing and accessible for all travelers.




  • Bonus Wujiang Gallery Panoramic Stop
    On the return journey to downtown Chongqing, the tour includes a stop at the Wujiang Gallery viewing platform. Visitors can enjoy a sweeping bird’s-eye view of the emerald-green Wujiang River meandering through steep limestone gorges, capturing one of Chongqing’s most iconic river valley landscapes as an extra highlight of the day.




  • Efficient Same-Day Round Trip from Downtown
    Departing and returning to downtown Chongqing within a single day with no overnight stay required, the itinerary packs world-class natural scenery into a compact schedule, ideal for travelers with limited time in Chongqing.




  • Flexible Private Travel Experience
    Travel with an exclusive guide and private vehicle throughout the trip. You can freely adjust your hiking pace and sightseeing time at each spot, enjoying an unrushed, personalized journey through Wulong’s karst landscapes.

Detail

07:30–08:00 – Downtown Chongqing Pickup & Departure

Your guide and driver will meet you at your downtown Chongqing hotel lobby, then depart for Wulong District, a core site of the UNESCO South China Karst World Natural Heritage. The roughly 2.5-hour drive passes through rolling mountain landscapes, setting the stage for a day of dramatic karst scenery.
10:30 – Three Natural Bridges Scenic Area
Upon arrival, board the included scenic shuttle bus to the entrance of the Three Natural Bridges.
Your exploration begins with the Tianlong Spiral Elevator, a 135.85-meter sightseeing elevator built directly into the vertical karst cliff face. The rotating cabin descends 115 meters to the bottom of the massive tiankeng (giant sinkhole) in around 60 seconds, offering sweeping, multi-angle views of towering rock walls and the sprawling karst basin below.
From the valley floor, follow the paved trail through one of the world’s largest natural arch clusters. You will walk beneath three colossal stone bridges — Tianlong, Qinglong and Heilong Bridges — each carved by millions of years of water erosion, and visit the historic Tianfu Official Post, the iconic filming location of Curse of the Golden Flower. Surrounded by sheer cliff faces, cascading streams and lush subtropical vegetation, you will experience the breathtaking scale of this ancient natural wonder.
At the end of the hiking route, take the included exit battery cart back to the shuttle bus stop, saving you the final uphill climb.
12:30 – Local Lunch at Fairy Mountain Town(price not included)
Enjoy a relaxed lunch at a local restaurant in the nearby town, featuring authentic Wulong specialties such as square bamboo shoots, cured pork and classic home-style Sichuan dishes made with fresh mountain ingredients.
13:30 – Longshui Gorge Rift Scenic Area
Next, head to Longshui Gorge Rift, known as “the most beautiful rift on earth”. After boarding the included scenic shuttle bus to the site entrance, take the descending elevator deep into the bottom of the narrow canyon.
You will then hike along the cliffside plank road through the dramatic, slit-like karst rift. Flanked by nearly vertical limestone walls hundreds of meters high, the gorge is dotted with gurgling streams, cascading waterfalls and hanging stalactites. Dense greenery fills the canyon, filling the air with cool, fresh negative oxygen ions, creating an immersive natural experience deep inside the earth’s “crack”.
16:00 – Wujiang Gallery Viewing Platform
On the return drive to Chongqing, make a stop at the Wujiang Gallery viewing platform. Perched high above the river, this overlook offers a panoramic vista of the emerald-green Wujiang River winding through a dramatic U-shaped gorge between steep limestone cliffs. The jade-colored river, towering mountain walls and cliffside highway form one of Chongqing’s most iconic river valley landscapes, perfect for photos and a short rest break.
19:00 – Return to Downtown Chongqing
Continue the drive back to Chongqing downtown. The tour concludes with drop-off at your hotel or a preferred central location at approximately 19:00.

We had an incredible time exploring Dali with Wandrift China Tour. The ancient towns, peaceful Erhai Lake and stunning snow-capped Cangshan Mountain took our breath away. Dali’s slow lifestyle, fresh air and unique local culture are absolutely charming. Every arrangement was well-organized, and our guide was friendly, professional and thoughtful. Thank you so much to Wandrift China Tour for creating such a wonderful and memorable Dali journey for our family. We truly enjoyed every moment.

We fell in love with the slow, gentle vibe of Chengdu, home to cute pandas and tasty local snacks. Chongqing amazed us with its unique mountain city views, magical night scenery and authentic hot pot. Every moment was romantic and relaxing. The local culture, warm atmosphere and delicious food made our trip perfect. It has become our most precious travel memory together.

Chengdu est tellement belle, j'aime beaucoup Chengdu, c'est la première fois que je vois des pandas géants, et la ville de Chongqing est vraiment magnifique. Les différences de hauteur des bâtiments dans toute la ville me donnent l'impression d'être dans une ville du futur.

The car is brand new. V rented it for two days: one day for a 10-hour tour in Hong Kong, and one day to take us to Shenzhen to visit and then return us to Hong Kong later that evening. NOT BAD.

My mom and I took this 5-day Chengdu tour. She's 68 and likes temples, tea, and slow walking. This trip was made for her. First day in Chengdu, our guide Wei took us to a local teahouse where old men played mahjong and parrots whistled. Mom loved it. Next day, Leshan Buddha. The stairs down to its feet are steep, but Wei found us a boat instead. Seeing the 71-meter giant from the river, mom just kept saying "wow." Emei Mountain was the highlight. We stayed overnight at a temple near the summit. Monks chanting at dawn, mist rolling through ancient pines. Mom cried a little. "My father told me about this place when I was a little girl," she said. Wei carried our bags the whole way. Small thing, meant everything. For anyone traveling with older parents in Sichuan, book this.
