Daning river, lesser three gorges

We took an excursion through the Daning River Samll Gorges, which are narrower than the Three Gorges, but very impressive. Then we entered Xiling Gorge, the longest (41 mile), and the deepest of the Three Gorges. In the evening, we sailed through the Three Gorges Dam ship locks. Below is the itinerary for the 3rd day:

  • 06:00 Complimentary Early Bird Coffee & Tea are served;
  • 06:30 Practice Tai Chi with Dr. Wu;
  • 07:00 Victoria Express enters the first Gorge, the Qutang Gorge. Passage through this 5-mile (8 Km) gorge takes only 20 to 30 minutes. Commentary starts at 6:45 by the river guide Curtis can be heard on Deck 4 and 5;
  • 07:30 Breakfast Buffet service begins.
  • 08:45 Shore Excursion: Passengers disembark for their shore excursion. A smaller motoized vessel carried us through the picturesque Lesser Gorges, along a tributary of the Yangtze, the Daning River. Later we changed to a smaller boat that took us to a part of the “Lesser Lesser Gorges”.
