Dear Frances,
Thank you for your inquiry! This is Anita Fan from WindhorseTour.
I would advise you to take the bullet trains as below, which costs about 1600 CNY per person for return trips (Hong Kong - Guiyang North - Chengdu East - Guangzhou South - Hong Kong) if you book the ticket online or at the train station. As Spring Festival is in Febuary, the train tickets can be in high demand, please be advised to make booking well in advance.
Hong Kong - Guiyang North, G312, 12:00 - 17:37
Guiyang North - Chengdu East, G8664, 19:15 - 22:35
&
Chengdu East - Guangzhou South, D1801, 07:56 - 16:51
Guangzhou South - Hong Kong, G479, 18:06 - 18:58
For Hong Kong arrival and departure, you will need to go through security, customs, immigration at West Kowloon station, and show your passport. Customs and immigration will take place in an area of the station under China’s jurisdiction. Having completed both Hong Kong departure and mainland arrival clearance procedures at the West Kowloon station, you won’t have to go through customs and immigration again upon arrival in China.
When you arrive in Hong Kong from China mainland city, you will need to go through Hong Kong arrival clearance in the West Kowloon station.
Hope above information is clear and helpful.
Best Regards,
Anita
