Guangzhou to Hong Kong for 1 day shopping. How?
-
I will be traveling to Guangzhou (China) in November and I would like to spend one day in Hong Kong for shopping on my way back to Dubai. I have a connecting flight from Hong Kong to Dubai on 30 November 2008 at 00.35hrs. I would like to reach Hong Kong in the morning of 30 November and shop around till my flight for Dubai. I have 3 main questions: (1) what is the duration of the trip from Guangzhou to Hong Kong by train? (2) where can I keep my luggage in Hong Kong during my one day visit? Are there lockers in the airport or should I book a hotel for the day? (3) I would like to shop at Shum Shui Po. What is the duration of the trip from Hong Kong aiport to Shum Shui Po? How do I get there?

Answer:
1) Guangzhou to Lowu/HK border by train is approx 45 minutes or 1hr 30 minutes by Bus. 2.) If you're flying with Cathay Pacific, I would suggest that you go to MTR Hong Kong Station at Hong Kong Island where you can check in your luggage 24hrs before your boarding time same as you check-in at the airport but you need to buy an Airport Express train ticket to the airport at HK$100. 3.) If don't take my advice in item#2, and you book for a hotel, Sham Shui Po or Mong Kok by bus is around 25 to 30 minutes. You can see in this page on how to get there by bus... http://www.travel-hongkong-attractions.com/hong-kong-avenue-of-stars.html

1st of all, may i remind u. if ur airtix = 30Nov 0035. then u should be travelling to HK on 29Nov rite? as 0035 should be the midnite passes 29Nov rite? so, let's back to ur quiz. fr GZ --> HK.... the most easier way = train cos buses wil take u ages. a direct train fr GZ to HK wil takes u approx. 2 hrs. chk below website 4 fares & timetable. earilest train to HK 0728. http://www.it3.mtr.com.hk/B2C/UserPage/sysTimeTable_eng.asp n after u arvd HK. u r in Hunghom Terminal of the KCRC. just grab a taxi outside (there's a taxi stand) n headed to the Kowloon Station. fares wil be apporox. HKD$30. v cheap & just 10 mins if no traffic jam. over there........show them ur airtix n u can do the free city chk-in so to get rid of ur luggages. ur bags wil be directly transfer up to ur Emirates flight. no worry! the only thing is that u must take the MTR airport express to our airport. so u hv to purchase a train's tix there in advance b4 u can city chk-in & afterward, u can use the tix travel to the airport after shopping. http://www.mtr.com.hk/eng/airport_express/complom_checkin.html so......after u 'mailed' ur luggage. u can head to Shamshuipo (SSP). Kowloon Station is kinda close to SSP. so a taxi wil do again n the charges wil be like HKD$30 again. or u can take the MTR but u hv to shift fr station to station as there's no direct train fr the Kowloon Station towards SSP. if u insisted MTR...u can hoop on to a train in Kowloon Station --> Lai King Station 1st. then shift a train in Lai King back to SSP. fares wil be abt HKD$8 i guess........plz chk their website ur own. travel time wil be abt 30 mins n dun goto SSP 2 early as shops there not open yet. if u r tend to go shop those pc stuffs........better go after 2pm. upstairs of the Kowloon Station = a new mall named Elements. maybe u can hang aro there a bit 1st......shops opened after 1100. good luck!!
