Scenery along the Way

The bullet train runs from a big modern city to another, passing by the famous Karst landscape. Along the way, you may see busy cities squeezed with skyscrapers as well as quiet rural villages surrounded by clear rivers and green hills; you may see urban white collars rushing to work, as well as farmers working hard in the paddy fields; you may see roads full of flowing vehicles, as well as buffalos wondering leisurely on countryside field ridges…Totally two different visages and life styles of China. It is a rail ride, also a short China discovery trip.

Major Attractions:

In Shenzhen: Splendid China - Folk Culture Villages, Window of the World, Shenzhen Happy Valley, Dameisha Beach, Xiaomeisha Beach…

In Guilin and nearby areas: Elephant Trunk Hill, Reed Flute Cave, Seven Stars Park, Li River, Impression Sanjie Liu, West Street (Xi Jie), Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces…

Which one to choose - high speed or overnight sleeper train?

High speed:
They are very fast, saving a lot of time. Usually, they are departing from and arriving at newly-built modern stations with nice environment. Besides, the trains are punctual in most cases. Passengers don’t need to worry about time delay. The facilities and environment onboard are also better than normal ones.

Overnight:
Running overnight, they save day time and accommodation spending, suitable for those budget travelers. However, as the duration is relatively long and the environment onboard are not so nice; a sleeper is recommended than a seat.

Your services in booking China train tickets are prompt and good. We got our paper train tickets from Guilin North Railway Station one day before our date of departure without any fee easily. The train took off exactly on the scheduled time. The maximum speed of the train was 245 Km/hr, but it moved very smoothly and comfortably. We arrived the waiting room for the train one hour before the scheduled time. Finally, we do not want our email address being published on your website.

It was a great trip! Thank you!! The booking was simple, we received the tickets well ahead of time!! The journey was safe and easy especially being our first trip. Thank you so much for your help as we were a little nervous. The facilities were great and we enjoyed the quietness in the vip section with room as well for our big luggages, We did notice the seats seemed more comfortable in the regular class though. But your consultants helped made our trip a wonderful experience and I will be sure to recommend you to all my family and friends, I will also take a few minutes to go on your website, Thank you!!

Can I buy a ticket from Guilin to Shenzhen but get on the train from Yangshuo?
I need a ticket on April 23 but all the tickets are sold out. Can I buy a ticket from Guilin to Shenzhen on G2901 and hop on from Yangshuo.

It is a pity that your plan cannot work. Passengers can hop on from halfway, but the problem is that G2901 does not stop in Yangshuo! It pass by directly with no stop. So you would need a plan B like to make a transfer in Guilin or bus.

They are different stations in the city, the one to use depends on the train you will take. They stop at different stations and you can check it from this website. Your hotel is closer to Guilin Station, only about 2km away. So if possible, G2908 should be best option, if not, then North station would be better than West Station.

what is the type of seating in First class and business class.

Business class is the best class can be offered. The seat is very comfortable and you can lie down. There are 3 seats in each row, 2 on one side and the other one on the other side. The first class is also comfortable to use but not as good as business class. There are 4 seats in each row, 2 seats on each side. You cannot lie down on it. In fact you can check some photos about these seats on this website.
