The easiest way is by train. You just get on in GZ and get off in Hong Kong. It takes about 2 hours. The train station in in central Kowloon, just a short taxi ride to anywhere in Kowloon, or go over to the subway station and get the cheap ride around town.

I agree, the easiest way would usually be by train. Bus is also possible but generally slower and more troublesome.

Definitely get the train. I got it last year and it was fast and comfortable, cost me about USD 15 each way if I remember correctly.

Also, Guangzhou has 2 train stations. Only the Guangzhou East train station has trains going to Hong Kong (Kowloon). Make sure you're at the right one!
