From Macau to Shenzhen
By WANHU | 6/4/2008 7:30:44 PM
For Malaysians that want to go to Shenzhen from Macau has 3 options, by direct flight to Fuyong airport (Bao'an), ferry to Fuyong or Shekou, or by bus/taxi to Gongbei Port in Zhuhai. Airport bus AP1 costs MOP3.30 and every luggage deposited behid the driver will be charged MOP3. Some people take a free ride using buses provided by hotels that operate casinos. In Gongbei Port, traveller can either use bus (there are at least three bus terminals), and a free shuttle bus service to ferry terminal. Ferry from Macau takes about 1 hour and 10 minutes while from Zhuhai takes about one hour to Shekou. Express bus from Gongbei to Shenzhen takes about 2.5 hours that stops at Futian and Luohu. Beware of private car touts that ask for 600RMB to Shenzhen from Zhuhai where bus is only 80RMB and ferry is 110RMB.
City taxi in Macau starts at MOP11 while in Shenzhen is 12.50RMB. In Bao'an (SZ) there are two types of taxis, the usual maroon colour, and the green colour. The green one starts at 7RMB

Ferry Vs. Train
By SAILR | 10/31/2007 12:33:23 PM
I recently was in Shenzhen and needed to to to HK for the day on business. I took the train. It is really a commuter train, often no place to sit and stops at every little town and suburb.
I had planned to take the train to the HK airport the next day for my flight back to the US. After the previous day's experience, however, I chose the ferry from Shekou. It is MUCH faster, only 30 minutes. Your baggage is checked for you. When you arrive at the airport, you claim your baggage and then check in for your flight and check your bags right there at the ferry terminal. Then a shuttle bus takes you to your terminal. Absolutely wonderful! FORGET THE TRAIN!!

Airport Bus
By KEVINWARDCFC | 6/15/2006 4:52:55 AM
Just a note to remind travellers that from Guangzhou Airport to the city there are many buses. But they do not all go to the same termini. In fact, there are four routes that they follow. There is a little handout that is available which will guide you. Just ask the airport staff for it and then choose your bus. The fare is less than 20 Yuan.

Just Walk :)
By PRONGS | 10/20/2004 10:51:42 AM
Please, if the place is near JUST WALK! It's a good exercise and better than killing your time in the bus because of traffic. Always bring umbrella, even the small one. I remember arguing to my chinese friend to take taxi, I though he just want to save money (even i'm willing to pay for it) but i realized as we are walking (3 blocks! yes its just 3 blocks but around 5KM) the traffic is horrible. Although its hot, my small umbrella is useful! Taking taxi is good but not always, anyone can be caught in a traffic even taxi.
