[quote=GUEST6775,547929]1. the visa price is the same to every US applicant. In your situation, you need to apply for a L type visa. It’s ok if you don’t have the invitation letter. You just need to provide your round-trip air tickets and hotel booking, your passports, application forms and recent passport photos. According to what I know, it’s easy for US citizens to acquire the L type. They are seldom refused. 2. It’s ok for you to travel independently. I am not sure what kind of transportation means you will use mostly. Anyway, you won’t have a problem if you take a plane. For trains and buses, I am afraid that you may have some language barriers. But it shouldn’t be a problem. I see many foreigners travel alone even though they don’t speak Chinese. Yes, it's more convenient if you hire a guide. I think you may hire a local guide when you reach your destination. It’s too expensive to hire one to help you finish your whole journey because you may be asked to burden all her/his accommodation and meals. 3. As long as you enter with valid visas and leave before your visas expire, you won’t have any problem when you fly to HK. Generally speaking, it’s safe for you to travel in China. However, you may take good care of your belongs, especially your wallet. I don’t know how old your kids are. If they are very young, you may pay attention to food hygiene. Don’t let them eat randomly. And you shouldn’t let them disappear from your sight. [/quote]
