Hong Kong to Zhongshan by bus and private car

Available around Hong Kong are bus services such as Eternal East Tours Company that connect populous neighbourhoods like Mong Kok, Sha Tin and Diamond Hill as well as shopping malls like Tung Chung’s Citygate Outlets, Tsuen Wan’s Nina Tower, Yoho Mall in Yuen Long, Kwun Tong’s APM and more to residential complexes like Zonglv Rainbow and Century Youhuo Commercial Plaza plus accommodations such as The Summit Hotel Zhongshan. Bus trips run up to nine times a day, starting at 8am, costing less than HK$250 per adult. Those unsure of their exact travel dates can opt for an open ticket.

Kwoon Chung Trans-Island Bus, meanwhile, bridges similar spots in Hong Kong to more touristy locations like Le Meridian Zhongshan, Jucheng and more.

Passengers who value privacy can opt for a personal chauffeur – English speaking drivers are available – from Sky Limo at HKIA. Its affiliated service providers around town, such as S.T. Travel Service Co. Ltd, offer private pick-up at the Shenzhen Bay, Huanggang, Man Kam To, Sha Tau Kok or Heung Yuen Wai Control Ports in a tour bus or five- or seven-seater vehicles.

Travellers can also go behind the wheel themselves and drive the 90-minute journey across the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. Drivers must be the registered owner of a non-commercial private car with eight or fewer seats – including the driver’s. The vehicle must measure six metres or less and have license plates and permits for both Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland. Stays of 30 consecutive days upon entry are allowed, with a maximum of 180 days per annum. You can find more information on self-drive to Guangdong Province here.
