Travelling from Hong Kong to Foshan, best method?
Oct 26, 2008 07:01
guestFirstt Timer I am travelling to Foshan in December. This is my first trip to China. I arrive in Hong Kong and I need to find my way to Foshan on my own to attend a friends wedding.

What I need to know is, which method of transport is the easiest and quickest from HK airport. If there is a direct bus or ferry that would be the best, but if there isn't, I presume I will have to travel to Central Hong Kong then first.

I look forward to your response. As a first timer to China, any travel tips? I hear lots of stories of counterfeit money being exchanged etc. Thank you.

Easiest might be the direct bus from Hong Kong airport. These are run by 2 separate companies, GoGoBus and CTS. Departures roughly every hour or less from 0705 to 1955. What time is your flight arriving?

Is that Huaxia New Zhongyuan Hotel? That looks like it's quite far from town.
There're direct buses (run by GoGoBus) from Hong Kong airport to Foshan. The relevant departure times for you would be 1245, 1445, 1615 and 1645. These cost 220 HKD per person and go by Shenzhen Bay border crossing. Alight at Chancheng Hotel and then take 2 taxis to your hotel, since you have 5 people. It's about 15 km further to your hotel.

GUEST30151 Dear Ellyse,
My name is Chan and I am Thai. I will be in Foshan during 14th - 16th of Jun and plan to go to Hong Kong on 17th. What is the best method to go to Hong Kong? Do I have to ask for VISA for Hong Kong.
