How to Travel from Hong Kong to Shenzhen

Hong Kong and Shenzhen face each other across the Shenzhen River. The fastest way to travel from Hong Kong to Shenzhen is high speed train, which only takes around 20min with frequent departures daily. In addition, tourists can take MTR/subway or city bus to arrive at Luohu Port, Huanggang Port and Futian Port first, then pass the border and enter Shenzhen. Flexible buses have many departure and arrival stations in these two cities, which provides more choices for tourists. Direct ferries are also a feasible way, operating from HKIA Skypier to Shenzhen Fuyong Port and from HK Macau Ferry Terminal to Shenzhen Shekou Port. People can also take a taxi or hire a private car with the higher cost of CNY750 to 850 in general.
