Hi Philip,

Thanks for your question. Drinks like soft drinks, water, coffee, cola, sprites, milk, juice, etc. are served with limited volume within your three meals per day. And all arranged shore excursions listed in the itinerary are also covered in your cruise fare.

Actually, taking a cruise sailing on Yangtze River is very cost effective and the price listed on our website covers the fees of the whole tour, including the entrance fees for several land excursions listed in the itinerary, daily meals on the ship, overnight accommodation, evening entertainment and more service.

Since prices are slightly different from seasons, downstream cruise/upstream cruise, as well as nationality, group number, etc. Could you please tell us more info about yourself and your travel time? Our professional travel consultants are here who can arrange a best-value cruise for you at any time.

Have a great day!
