GO2CHINAWITHME × CENTURY CRUISES
A China cruise tour pairs Beijing, Xi’an, Shanghai, and other headline cities with a luxury river journey through the Three Gorges—giving you both the China you came to see and the quieter, spectacular China you never expected.
Why add the Yangtze? ↓THE BEST OF LAND + RIVER
The Great Wall, the Terracotta Warriors, and Shanghai bring the big moments. The Yangtze gives the journey room to breathe.
Settle into your stateroom, wake to cliffs and mist outside your window, and step ashore for smaller river towns, historic sites, and tributary scenery that most land-only trips miss.
The river is not time away from China. It is where the country changes pace—and comes closer.
OUR PARTNER ON THE YANGTZE
Deep Yangtze expertise. A modern generation of spacious, sophisticated ships. A front-row seat to one of China’s great landscapes.

My partnership with Century means I can help match the right sailing and land journey to the way you want to experience China—and make the whole trip feel like one beautifully connected adventure.
FOUR WAYS TO SAIL
From a river chapter
to the grand China story.
3-NIGHT DOWNSTREAM · 4-NIGHT UPSTREAM
The perfect river chapter for a broader China tour.
After China’s megacities dazzle you, the Yangtze knows exactly what you need: dramatic scenery, fascinating history, and a comfortable balcony from which to enjoy it all. Sail through the legendary Three Gorges and discover a quieter, more contemplative side of China—without sacrificing a single creature comfort.

10-NIGHT DOWNSTREAM · 11-NIGHT UPSTREAM
Make the Yangtze the main event.
Travel the river’s remarkable sweep between Chongqing and Shanghai, watching landscapes, cities, and cultures change along the way. This is the deeper, slower Yangtze—for river-cruise lovers and travelers who know the journey can be every bit as rewarding as the destination.
