Overview

Discover Chongqing's hillside streets, layered skyline and iconic monorail on an 8-hour private tour with hotel pickup and drop-off. Your driver connects the sights while you explore independently.

Default route: Chongqing hotel → Liziba Monorail Viewpoint → TESTBED2 Eling Factory (or Eling Park) → Mountain City Alley → Yangtze River Cableway → Jiefangbei → Hongya Cave → hotel.

All vehicle options provide a regular driver only, without a guide or guaranteed English-speaking driver. A guide may be arranged separately. The cableway ride is optional and its ticket is excluded.

The 8 hours cover driving, walking, waiting, sightseeing, meals and the return to your hotel. Vehicle overtime costs CNY 100/hour. Contact us at least 24 hours ahead for route changes. Traffic, steps, parking, cableway queues or weather may alter stops. Visiting every location or seeing Hongya Cave illuminated cannot be guaranteed.

What to expect

    Visit the designated viewing platform and watch the trains travel through the structure.
    Enjoy time for photography and admire Chongqing's unusual three-dimensional urban design.
