      There are children traveling with us. The oldest child is 13 years old. Could you please advise regarding room occupancy arrangements in this case?

    As I would travel there by myself can you tell me the hotels that you use so I can book them. Do you have a free service then to the dock.

    Accommodation
    Transport
    • Silk Road TripsOperator•Written May 2026

      We don't use hotel for this cruise ticket, you can book any hotel by yourself.

      It is suggested to book Crowne Plaza Yichang City Center (located near the Three Gorges Tourist Center and Wujiagang Wanda Plaza). So you can walk to the cruise bus meeting place easily.

      James

      Traveler•Written May 2026

      That answer has Yichang covered but where do I stay in Chongqing?

    • Silk Road TripsOperator•Written May 2026

      You will disembark from the cruise at around 8am at Chongqing Chaotianmen Dock on Day 05. Then you can continue your travel plan which I don't know. This is a cruise ticket product, you can check the reference itinerary on the web. Then you can decide to book your hotel or plan or train.

      James

      Traveler•Written May 2026

      Does your website show what cabins are available?

      The cruise sails on different date, so we need to know your travel date, and then let you know the cruise name.
      You can book it online, the cruise reference itinerary is available to check online.
