Metro
- Metro: Chongqing's rail network is extensive; ride to a station near the Chaotianmen wharf (such as Xiaoshizi or Grand Theatre), then walk or transfer to the wharf.
- Follow on-site signs from the station to the wharf; the terrain is hilly, so allow time for walking.
Bus and taxi
- Bus: several routes serve the Chaotianmen area; actual routes follow local operation.
- Taxi / ride-hailing: convenient from downtown to the Chaotianmen wharf. Demand peaks when cruises disembark — book ahead or leave slightly earlier.
Self-driving
Navigate to the Chaotianmen wharf; parking is available nearby. Traffic and parking are busiest on holidays and at night — leave early and watch for parking space.
