Planning Q&A

Train, private driver, or flight in China?

Short Answer

High-speed trains are often best between major cities, while private drivers are better for local countryside routes.

Practical Notes

  • Compare total door-to-door time, not only travel time.
  • Use flights for very long distances.
  • Use drivers for scenic stops, villages, and flexible day trips.
