Chengdu River Boat Tours

Chengdu River Boat Tours

You might have seen it on your Moments, the Jinjiang river boat tours are back, so locals and tourists alike can take in some of Chengdu’s best sights from the water. Currently there are two routes in use, with more coming in the future.

Each river cruises takes around 40 minutes. You can just show up at the piers, purchase a ticket, and jump in one of the boats (you can’t choose the kind of boat, or will have to wait). The small boats can carry 6-8 people, and the bigger boats can carry up to 30 people. You won’t usually have to wait more than 15 minutes before setting off.

The cruises are on every night, for you enjoy to enjoy ride and several light shows. There also seems to be an afternoon option, but when we asked the company,  we got a very Sichuan “not sure which day” answer to that question…
