Additional question: would Macau be visa free for us, visiting from Hongkong?



As for Guangzhou, you can adjust the route to be eligible for Guangdong (including Guangzhou and Qingyuan) 144-hour visa-free transit. You may fly from Germany to Guangzhou directly, then take a ferry to HK. The route HK - Guangzhou - Macao is also eligible, but you need to fly from HK to Guangzhou, then take a ferry to Macao. If you still plan to travel by high speed train or over land from HK to Guangzhou, apply for a visa in advance.




The Harare - Guangzhou - Macau will be eligible for 24-hour visa-free trainsit if you travel from Guangzhou to Macau by ferry and have the ferry ticket in hand when landing. From Macau, you need a visa to reenter Guangzhou.
