00ReplyIf you are flexible with the travel time, it is OK to buy it at station directly. If you need to travel at an appoint time, it would be better to book it in advance to guarantee availability.

00ReplyIn fact there will be no immigration check between this transfers. The immigration check will be in HK before you take the train. If you can go to the station in HK early in advance and collect the paper tickets for the trip from Guangzhou to Guilin, 30 to 60min would be enough. If you need to collect the paper ticket for second trip in Guangzhou, you would need 1.5 hours. There could be a long queue for ticket collection.
