I was very positively surprised with the speed of your response. I just had two small problems with the booking:

(i) the fact that I had to authorize two Paypal payments (instead of one). Not a real problem, but it caused some uncertainty.

(ii) booking of the ticket for kid-it would be good if you correct the price online so that we do not need to pay a second time for price difference.

In general I was satisfied with your services.

Dear Travelchinaguide,

1. The booking experience was good. Everything worked well and my ticket was waiting for me when I arrived in my hostel.
2. I have booked a trip on from Guangzhou and Chengdu. I have done the same trip years before and traveled on Chinese trains extensively in the past. I love traveling by rail. Hard sleeper is generally comfortable and one gets a good experience traveling with locals. They are generally friendly and helpful, and when in the past they could be obnoxious about wanting to practice their English, these days a foreigner is left in peace if he so wishes. Traveling is an adventure and I hearty recommend traveling long distance by rail in China....More

This is my first time using the service and I am very satisfied with it. The response I received was fast and without any hassles. I did appreciate the lady who called the hotel to verify if I had received my tickets. Tickets were readily waiting for me when I checked into my hotel.
As for train travel, I think the journey depends on how crowded the trains are and where you're getting on. My travel experience this trip was not so nice even though I booked first class. Too many loud locals compared to my last trip. Of course, not the problem with the company supplying the tickets.

One suggestion would be recommending trains with better carraiges or time schedules to reduce these hassles. If possible, to provide an official receipt (via email) for those of us traveling on business and need to make claims.
Would definitely use this service the next time I travel by train.....More

It was my first time booking train tickets online with TravelChinaGuide, traveling from Guangzhou City to Yangshuo via bullet train. Sunny Zhang was very helpful providing us with sufficient information on how to pickup our tickets at the train station. We flew direct from New York to Beijing, then to Guangzhou. Our flights went amazingly well without delay. Since we are familier with the subway systems in New York City, taking metro in Guangzhou was a piece of cake. It took one full hour to travel from the int'l airport to Guangzhou South Railway Station.

The train station was enormously large and crowded. It took us a while to locate the right window to collect our reserved tickets. We were glad that all went smoothly. Just make sure that you give yourself plenty of time and be prepared to expect the unexpected.

Thx, Sunny!...More

If you take high speed ride to HK, they depart from Guangzhou South Station only. If you take more ride, they only use Guangzhou East Station.

I think there is no direct flight from Kuala Lumpur to Shantou, you also need a transfer in other place. So Guangzhou should be more direct. Fly to Guangzhou and then change to high speed ride to Puning.

Transfer time from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport to Guangzhou South
My flight arrives at Baiyun Airport at 12.30pm. Given that I need time to clear the immigration and have brief lunch at the airport, then proceed to take the metro to Guangzhou South HSR (Guilin as destination), would to be able to suggest the best High Speed departure time bound for Guilin? I am not familiar with the layout South Station, so may need to factor in the time for collection of tickets. Will a 4pm departure be sufficient time for me?

The transfer from airport to South Station should take around 1.5 hours and you need at least 1 hour (if possible 1.5 hours would be better) for ticket collection and security check. Another one hour should be prepared for immigration check and luggage collection at the airport. So maybe it is safer to choose a later one around 4:30pm.

Guangzhou Railway Station should open 24 hours a day but the South Station is not. As I know the south station may open at 5:30 or 6am and end after around 11:30pm. By the way, to enter the station, you would need to hold a ticket departing from the station.

In fact it depends on the detailed train ride. C rides go from Guangzhou Station or East Station. G types go from South Station. So you need to check which type of bullet rides you choosed.
