Guangzhou to Hong Kong Transportation

Guangzhou to Hong Kong Transportation

Guangzhou is a rising tourism city and Hong Kong is a popular travel destination. The two cities are close to each other and share similar cultures.

Guangzhou does not border with Hong Kong. Traveling between these two cities, the most convenient and non-stop ways can be train transport and air transport. Of course, you can also transfer in Shenzhen (a city borders with Hong Kong) or take a ferry or coach.

Highspeed Trains: A Fast and Convenient Choice

Highspeed train from Guangzhou South Railway Station to Hong Kong West Kowloon Station is available from Sept. 23, 2018. There are over 30 pairs of trains in service every day from 06:48 to 21:37 and the journey only takes about 1 hour.

Tickets are now available for booking . You can check for tickets from our China Train service.

The Guangzhou–Kowloon Through Train: a Convenient Way to Get from Downtown Guangzhou to Hong Kong

The Guangzhou–Kowloon through train runs from Guangzhou East Railway Station to Hung Hom Railway Station in Kowloon, Hong Kong. There are nine pairs of trains running between Guangzhou and Hong Kong every day and the journey takes about 2 hours.

This is a convenient way to travel if you live in downtown Guangzhou because Guangzhou East Railway Station is only a few kilometers from there.

Ticket Price (First-Class/VIP Seat)

  • Adult (over 10 years old): 195/232 yuan
  • Child (5–9 years old): 103/121 yuan
  • Child (under 5 years old without a seat): free

Ticket Refunding

  • For a refund at least 3 days before departure (before 11:00): 30% of the ticket price will be charged.
  • For a refund at least 2 hours before departure: 50% of the ticket price is charged.
  • You cannot receive a refund for your ticket when the train is due to depart in less than 2 hours.

The trains depart from Guangzhou East Railway Station at 08:19, 09:30, 10:37, 12:03, 14:04, 15:38, 17:33, 19:33, and 20:40.

You should arrive at the railway station 45 minutes before train's departure, to go through your exit formalities, and the boarding gate closes 15 minutes before the train's departure.

Air Transport: A Costly Choice

Taking a flight is expensive and not a very swift way to travel between Guangzhou and Hong Kong because you may need to spend some time at the airport when you arrive there. This can be a plan B in peak seasons.

Every day, there are several flights available for your selection. You can search and book a flight for traveling in China Highlights' China flight .

Traveling between Guangzhou and Hong Kong via Shenzhen

The most recommended way to travel is by train as there are over 100 trains operating every day.

Check out our complete guide about the Guangzhou – Shenzhen – Hong Kong High-Speed Train .

You can also check out our carefully-prepared information about Guangzhou-Shenzhen transportation and Shenzhen Hong Kong transportation .

Ferry Transport: An Uncrowded Choice

Taking a ferry to Hong Kong is an option if you love this kind of transportation. The boarding ports are Lianhuashan Ferry Terminal and Nansha Passenger Port.

The ferry terminals in Guangzhou are not very easy to reach as there are no metro lines connected to them. A lack of English services is also a challenge. If you'd like this experience, just let us know and we will help you to arrange it.

Coach Transport: Budget Saving

Coaches are available from Guangzhou to Hong Kong but they are not very useful as it is hard to book tickets and find the boarding places unless you can speak Chinese. This is only an alternative plan if the coach departs from your hotel and you are traveling on a budget.

A voyage between Guangzhou and Hong Kong by coach is about 3.5 hours. You will arrive at Shenzhen first, and then pass the port to Hong Kong.

The services of coach transport are offered by several companies. Below is the brief introduction for the most popular two lines.

Shenggangtong Express Line (省港通快线)

Shenggangtong Express Line has 12 buses operated between Guangzhou and Hong Kong. In Guangzhou, you can catch a bus in Huaxia Hotel, Jinhan Station, Dongfang Hotel, and New Tianhe Hotel.

On the way to Hong Kong, you can get off the coach at Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok or Kwai Fong, all of which also can be the boarding points for taking a coach to Guangzhou.

Gangzhonglü Express Line (港中旅快线)

Guangzhonglü Express Line has near 40 coaches operated between Guangzhou and Hong Kong. The boarding points in Guangzhou are: Poli Hotel, Dongshan Hotel, Garden Hotel and Haitao Hotel.

How to Travel From Hong Kong to Guangzhou by Train, Bus, and Car

travel guangzhou to hong kong

Maremagnum / Getty Images

Hong Kong and Guangzhou may only be separated by 111 miles (179 kilometers) and share a main language of Cantonese, but because Hong Kong is a Special Administrative District and Guangzhou is a part of mainland China, traveling between these two cities is slightly more complicated than traveling between two mainland cities.

There are no flights between Hong Kong and Guangzhou, but it is possible to travel between the two cities by train, bus, or car. Tourists may need to obtain a visa to cross into mainland China, if they don't already have one, and be prepared to change their currency if they're carrying any cash because Hong Kong uses the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and Guangzhou uses the Chinese Yuan (RMB). Note that the estimated travel times below do not account for delays getting through the border.

What Is the Cheapest Way to Get From Hong Kong to Guangzhou?

If your budget has no wiggle room, the bus is the cheapest way to get between Hong Kong and Guangzhou. Some bus operators that offer this cross-border route include Trans-Island Limousine Service , EE Bus , and China Travel Tours . Tickets usually cost between $9 and $18 with multiple daily departures available.

When you cross the border with the bus, you will have to disembark with your luggage and pass through immigration on foot. After you go through immigration, you won't be getting back on the same bus. Instead, the bus company will provide a new bus on the other side for passengers to board. There are many bus companies and each one has different arrival and departure points in Hong Kong and Guangzhou, so do your research to determine which company offers stops that work best with your travel plans.

What Is the Fastest Way to Get From Hong Kong to Guangzhou?

The high-speed train that runs between Hong Kong and Guangzhou takes just 50 minutes, but only leaves from Hong Kong West Kowloon Station and arrives in Guangzhou South Station. Tickets typically cost anywhere between $11 and $30. Unless you're staying near the train station, you should anticipate at least another hour of travel via subway or cab to get to the city center in Guangzhou.

Unlike the bus, all immigration procedures will take place in Hong Kong before you board the train. If you are not a Hong Kong ID holder, you’ll need to arrive at least one hour before departure time to account for border formalities. If you have a Hong Kong ID, passing through border control should only take about 20 minutes.

How Long Does It Take to Drive?

If you need the flexibility of leaving on your own schedule, you can rent a car and drive, but driving in China can be unpredictable and difficult if you are inexperienced. The drive typically takes about 2 hours but could take longer depending on traffic conditions and delays at the border. Note that in Hong Kong, you'll drive on the left side of the road and when you cross into mainland China, you'll drive on the right. If you really need to take a car, consider hiring a car service or taxi to take you across the border instead. Overall, this is a better deal because you can pay just one price instead of having to worry about the cost of the rental car, tolls, gas, and parking. A driver can also help guide you through the border crossing smoothly.

When Is the Best Time to Travel to Guangzhou?

The weather in the southern region of China is subtropical, which means summers are hot and humid and winters can be a bit cold, but it very rarely snows. Spring is the rainiest season, particularly in May and June, which makes the fall the best time to visit Guangzhou. Temperatures are mild and it's a great time to be outdoors and enjoy the fall foliage .

Casual travelers should avoid visiting Guangzhou during the Canton Fair , an international trade event in April and May that brings thousands of sellers and buyers to Guangzhou to do business. Hotels are packed at this time and hotel rates and airfares tend to shoot up in price.

Do I Need a Visa to Travel to Guangzhou?

You need a Chinese visa to visit Guangzhou, but you don't need one to enter Hong Kong, which is technically one of China's Special Administrative Regions. Remember, Hong Kong and China have a formal border, including passport control and customs checks. Luckily, since the city is a major business hub and tourism area, Hong Kong's visa application and requirements are relaxed. In fact, citizens of the United States, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand don’t need a visa to enter Hong Kong for stays of up to 90 days.

Meanwhile, you do need to get a visa to enter mainland China. Make sure to check with the Chinese embassy or the nearest consulate to confirm you have all the necessary documents to apply for a tourist visa, which will stay valid for 10 years. You can also buy a Chinese visa while you're in Hong Kong , but it's smarter to apply for a visa before you leave home.

What Is There to Do in Guangzhou?

Guangzhou is a major commerce hub that attracts business travelers from all over the world. With a population of more than 11 million people, this is one of the largest cities in China and there is a lot for tourists to see.

Architecture-lovers should pay pilgrimage to the Guangzhou Opera House designed by Zaha Hadid and the Canton Tower, which holds the Guinness World Record for having the highest thrill ride in the world. Although the Sky Drop is over 1,500 feet in the air, the ride only drops you about 100 feet. While in Guangzhou, you should take the opportunity to go out for Dim Sum , which is a part of traditional Cantonese cuisine, or take a night cruise on the Pearl River to see the city lit up at night. For something unique, you may also consider visiting the historic Shamian Island , where you'll find remnants of the city's colonial past .

Tickets for the high-speed train cost between HK $8 and HK $233 (about $11 to $30).

There are buses to Guangzhou that depart from Hong Kong Airport. If you'd rather take a car, several car hire services take passengers from the airport across the border to Guangzhou.

The two cities are 111 miles (179 kilometers) apart.

‘I am not alone’: Victims of ‘hidden’ sexual violence on Hong Kong’s streets find solace in sharing, mutual support

Charlene was gripped by a mixture of confusion, fear and shame at Hong Kong’s busy Wan Chai MTR station last July when she suddenly found her trousers were wet. 

“Was it a kid accidentally spilling water? I turned around… Everyone was busy shuttling past me in the station. I couldn’t see any suspects,” she recalled.

Charlene, sexual assault, liquid splashing

She immediately ducked behind a pillar. “Even my underwear was wet. It felt so shameful and disgusting… I couldn’t understand why there was water. Then I thought: was it sexual harassment?” 

She reported the incident to police based in the station but they said it would be hard to catch a suspect without CCTV in the area, Charlene, who asked to be identified only by her first name, told HKFP in Cantonese. 

“It was like being hit with a hard blow, but you don’t know who hit you, how they hit you. And no one helps. The matter was left unsettled, and it lingered, ” Charlene said.

Sexual violence, street harassment, women, gender

More than six months later, she saw a video online posted by another woman whose bum had been splashed by an unidentified liquid in Mong Kok, and decided it was time to speak out. 

Two days later, she set up an Instagram page entitled “Pissed-us-off,” sharing her own trauma and appealing to others with similar experiences to speak up. 

To Charlene’s surprise, within just a month she had received 150 reports from people – 99 per cent of them women – who had been splashed in crowded areas like streets in Mong Kok, Causeway Bay and Wan Chai, an escalator at Lam Tin and a bus terminal at Tung Chung. 

Sexual violence, street harassment, Nicole, victim, liquid splashing

The earliest case dated back to 2004 and nearly all victims had been splashed around the buttocks. While some said the liquid was water, others reported the smell of urine and some feared it may have been semen. 

The incidents triggered public attention. In late February, a 56-year-old man was arrested and accused of pouring unidentified liquid on a woman in Causeway Bay , before being remanded in a psychiatric ward. In 2008, a 40-year-old man with the same name was convicted of indecent assault for spilling semen on a woman’s bum in public.  

Police at the time said they had received nine reports between January 20 and February 18 from women aged 16 to 32 who were splashed with liquid in Mong Kok. One woman’s trousers were soiled twice in one hour.

escalator, public space, MTR, street harassment, sexual violence

In response to HKFP, the police said they had included courses on sexual violence in the curriculum of the Police College and its Detective Training Centre, touching on topics such as “psychological techniques for dealing with victims” and “empathetic listening.” Officers were also provided training to improve their sensitivity and communication skills when handling cases of sexual violence.

Charlene said catching one suspect did not bring the issue to an end. “I hope society will become more aware of sexual violence,” she said, adding that the issue should be tackled jointly by the media, the police and the government.

Hidden victims

Ruby Lai, an assistant professor of Lingnan University specialising in gender studies, has been studying the liquid-splashing cases. One of her friend’s, Lai told HKFP, had encountered this kind of sexual harassment twice.

“This is a kind of sexual violence classified as ‘street harassment.’ All around the world, reported rates of street harassment are low as the attackers can flee easily, and society hasn’t developed a clear awareness of this type of sexual violence. It therefore takes a lot of time and effort to report a case,” Lai said in Cantonese. “Many victims just bear it.” 

Nicole, a medic in her 30s who asked to be known by her first name, told HKFP that she now felt uncomfortable every morning when walking to the bus terminal in Tung Chung after being splashed with an unknown liquid while there twice.

The first assault was on May 11 last year. “Suddenly I felt my butt was warm and there was some liquid wetting me from outside to inside… I was too scared to look back at that moment. What if there was some pervert behind me?” she said in Cantonese.

“I thought of reporting it to the police. But there were no CCTV cameras at the bus terminal and I did not see any suspect.” 

She became suspicious during every morning commute, paying close attention to the people behind her at the bus terminal. But in August, she was assaulted again. 

“That day I was a bit relaxed and I was looking at my phone while I walked. As soon as I got on the bus, I found my butt was wet,” Nicole said. “It was so disgusting.”

She considered reporting the assault to police but did not do so in the end. “I was very cowardly… I felt scared until now. And you can’t do anything except check who is behind you, ” she said, bursting into tears.

A feeling of fear still lingers for Charis, who told HKFP she encountered the same kind of sexual harassment in 2016.  

“I was hanging out with my cousin in Mong Kok. While we were just about to cross an intersection with the crowd, I suddenly found my buttocks wet and warm,” Charis who only offered her first name told HKFP in Cantonese. 

Confused and not sure what had happened, she did not report the incident to police. “But it haunts me. To this day, every time I pass the intersection, I put my hands behind my back to cover my buttocks.”

‘ It’s not my fault ‘

Lily, an office clerk, was harassed at the same intersection in Mong Kok at around 6pm on February 4. The episode haunts her. 

She remembered reading an online post about a similar sexual harassment and returned to the scene the next day, taking a short video about her ordeal and uploading it to Instagram with an appeal to watch out for suspects.

Lily struggled with her feelings before uploading the video. “I was afraid others might say: why were you targeted, was it because of what you did, like what you were wearing on that day?” She soon decided she should not blame herself. “It’s not my fault. It’s the fault of the pervert,” she said.

It was Lily’ post that encouraged Charlene to go public. 

“It’s hard for one person to take action,” Charlene said. “I would have felt scared. But now I am not alone, I am [backed by] a group of people. We’re a collective able to face the issue. That made a difference in our power.”

Responding to Lily’s video, 56 people left comments saying they had experienced the same kind of sexual harassment. 

More victims came forward, sending messages to the Instagram page or filling in online forms. Charlene studied characteristics of all the cases, published a map of “black spots” and rolled out guidelines for victims and witnesses. 

She avoided blaming the victims. “The page is not asking women to be more careful. That’s not reasonable. The responsibility should be borne more by passers-by. When you are in some hot spots for sexual harassment, can you put down your phone and notice your surroundings? Could you offer some help if someone encounters a liquid-splashing assault?”

Soon after Charlene launched her page, Nicole and Charis sent messages sharing their long- hidden trauma. “It still felt hard bringing up the incidents, but we need to stand up, ” Nicole said. 

A ‘neglected’ type of sexual violence

“While the general public still considers sexual violence as limited to rape and indecent assault, various types of sexual violence have long existed in daily life,” Florence Tsang, a social worker of the anti-sexual violence NGO RainLily, told HKFP. 

“Like image-based sexual violence, and the splashing of liquid on women’s intimate areas, they have been neglected. It was not until recently, thanks to the concern page, that we recognised such a social problem,” Tsang said in Cantonese.

The gender studies scholar Lai said liquid-splashing, as a type of sexual violence, had its roots in pornographic videos usually tagged as “cum on women in public” or “ejaculation in the streets” on Chinese and English online porn platforms. 

HKFP found many videos apparently shot on mobile phones and uploaded to porn sites. They usually showed a man following one or more women in the streets, through shopping malls or up escalators. Often, the man appears to ejaculate onto the women without their knowledge. 

MTR sexual harassment traffic

The BBC last June investigated a criminal group led by a Chinese national which organised a team of 15 people to grope women in public areas in China and to film the process. The group then sold the videos online for huge profits. 

“The criminals are smart – they know semen will contain DNA, therefore they turn to warm water or other unknown liquids,” Lai said. 

Tsang said attackers were not only seeking sexual release. Such incidents were more about demonstrating their power to manipulate and threaten women. 

News reports in Chinese show that liquid-splashing sexual assaults have been reported not only in Hong Kong, but also in cities in Taiwan and China. 

MTR station, Wan Chai, police, street harassment

According to a search by HKFP, from 2007 to 2023, at least eight male suspects were arrested for splashing semen, sputum or unknown liquids on women in Taipei, New Taipei and Kaohsiung. 

In Guangzhou, a man was arrested last October for spilling unidentified liquid on a woman’s buttocks on a train. 

A grey area in laws

Hong Kong’s laws against sexual offences have not been updated to cover evolving types of sexual violence.

Lai said that while the offence of indecent assault criminalises touching without consent, and the Sex Discrimination Ordinance tackles sexual harassment in the workplace or educational institutions, no laws cover sexual harassment in a public place or sexual assault which does not involve direct touching. 

The 56-year-old  man arrested in Causeway Bay in late February was charged with outraging public decency, punishable by up to seven years in prison.

In early January, a 37-year-old man was arrested and charged with loitering after following a woman and splashing unidentified liquid on her. 

gender, women, sexual harassment, sexual violence

“The problem is, if they are not charged with sexual offences, their names will not appear in the Sexual Conviction Check Record even if they are convicted,” Lai said.

The Law Reform Commission has been reviewing legislation on sexual violence since 2006. In 2012 it proposed replacing the offence of indecent assault with a new one of sexual assault, which would cover behaviour such as ejaculating onto others or emitting urine or saliva. 

It also sought to broaden the definition of touching to include touching with anything or any part of the body. However, there have yet to be any reforms. 

“Our society has not been updating different types of sexual violence,” Lai said, adding that apart from updating the offence of indecent assault, Hong Kong could also learn from the UK, which last October passed a new law to protect against sexual harassment in public.

It criminalises behaviour such as catcalling, following someone and sending sexual images to others via Bluetooth, with a maximum penalty of two years in jail. 

Watch out for each other

The move to set up a concern page, to connect with other victims and to speak up online and to the media has helped heal Charlene after her ordeal. 

“Initially I felt scared, trembling, thinking I can’t change anything. Now as we have taken action, I have fought back a bit. I am not sure whether it will work, or whether people will forget about [the issue] very soon. But at least I feel a release,” Charlene said. 

women, gender, sexual violence, sexual harassment

Apart from the liquid-splashing, Charlene and Lily have long felt unsafe in public areas. They said they had encountered sexual assaults on buses and trains, when men had rubbed against them with their penises. 

Charlene twice reported such assaults to police but the cases remain unsettled. 

Speaking up over the past month has helped her shed her feelings of helplessness. She hopes the concern page will help other victims vent their feelings.

“People might think I am surrounded by negative emotions from lots of people after receiving messages from other victims. Actually, I felt love – I talked with everyone who sent messages to me. We’re supporting each other,” Charlene said. 

 “We don’t have eyes in the back of our heads,” she said, stressing the need for mutual support to stop sexual violence. “If everyone is watching out for everyone else, keeping an eye on those ahead of you, we won’t need to worry so much about what happens behind us.”

Cross-border "flexible travel" between Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong has been extended to Shenzhen North, with free ticket changes three times on the day of travel

  Shenzhen Special Administrative Region News (Reporter Wu Hekun) As Hong Kong and Shenzhen deepen their integration, the demand for cross-border travel is gradually increasing.

Recently, Guangzhou Railway Group announced an "upgraded" service product, changing the train schedule of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong "flexible travel" launched last year, extending from Futian Station to Shenzhen North Station.

  It is reported that the cross-border "flexible travel" between Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong means that passengers holding a valid ticket issued on the face of the ticket between Futian and Hong Kong West Kowloon Station can still take the train on the face of the ticket after handling a change or exceeding the time limit for change. On the same date, go through three "flexible travel" train change procedures.

Since its launch last year, the "flexible train" has been very popular among passengers from Shenzhen and Hong Kong. There are more than 180 trains running from Shenzhen to and from Hong Kong West Kowloon Station every day.

  Previously, this service was only available for trains originating and ending between Futian and Hong Kong West Kowloon Station. Now it has been extended to Shenzhen North Station, making traveling to and from Longhua from Hong Kong more flexible and convenient, which will undoubtedly bring benefits to Longhua cultural tourism and consumption.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Longhua District Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism and Sports Bureau, the number of Hong Kong tourists visiting Longhua will increase significantly in 2023. Survey results show that Hong Kong tourists are particularly interested in emerging businesses such as trendy entertainment and sports, such as Karu Ice and Snow World in Guanlan District, Longhua The Langwan and Wind Tunnel in the street area are popular experience projects among Hong Kong tourists.

  In order to facilitate the travel of Hong Kong passengers, Longhua District has continued to make "smart ideas". Since last year, it has launched two "Longhua Cultural Tourism Special Line" free shuttle buses that depart from Futian Port on holidays (including Hong Kong statutory holidays) and weekends.

The bus lines connect Longhua's cultural, educational, consumer and popular business districts with large traffic, allowing Hong Kong passengers to reach Longhua's business districts and attractions conveniently and quickly.

In addition, the Longhua District Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism and Sports Bureau and the District Industry and Information Technology Bureau have actively mobilized major business districts in the area to open cross-border bus routes from Hong Kong to Longhua. Currently, there are Hong Kong to Yifangtiandi, Longhua Tianhong Shopping Center, Costco, etc. The direct train to Shenzhen will further enhance the experience of Bay Area residents visiting Shenzhen.
