HELP ON TOUR TO SHANTOU
Posted: Wed October 21, 2009 03:26 AM UTC

Dear Lovely and Helpful People,

i need your kind advice.

i am intending to bring my elderly parents, to Shantou in early november. though most are advising to bring them via tour group, but i believe that these groups are boring and prefer to bring them F&E.

my plans are either flying to Guangzhou or Xiamen, stay a few days, before flying to Shantou.

PLease kindly advise, if its possible for me to go to Wu Yi Shan, Shenzhen ..etc from Guangzhou or Shantou? how long is the journey? Or is it possbile for me to get a local tour agent in Guangzhou who can help bring us around?

Please kindly share the contacts of these agents.

thanks!!

Macao to Taishan travel with children
Posted: Fri September 25, 2009 10:54 PM UTC

Hi, I am planning to visit Hong Kong, Macao and Taishan at Easter 2010 - would like to spend a day or so in Macao and a day or two (at most one night) in the Taishan area. We are a family of four, with children aged 7 and 9. Could anyone advise us on convenient ways to travel between Macao and Taishan? I know there are buses, but are they all suitable for children?

In the Taishan area, we just want to sightsee, we have no particular person or place to visit. Any suggestions welcome!

Urgent: Lockers at SZX? (Shenzhen Aiport)
Posted: Wed September 16, 2009 06:46 PM UTC

Hi, travelling from Shenzen to Beijing via Shanghai and back, we would like to leave some of our luggage behind at Shenzen Airport.

Is it possible to store 2 (bigger) suitcases at Shenzhen Airport (SZX) for a longer period > 2 weeks ?

The website of SZX is giving just a little bit of info, but nothing very concrete.

Thanks for any replies or other suggestions!

Ohyeah, we're around in Asia for like 5 months, hence all the suitcases.

About infectious diseases
Posted: Fri September 11, 2009 01:53 PM UTC

Dear fellows,

I am quite new here and finally I hope that I will find an answer to my question.
I am travelling from France to Guangzhou in a few days.
I contacted the Chinese consulate office and they told me that no vaccination for any disease is required.
I was told that probably if I went to small villages on the south I would need a hepatitis B vaccine.
Do you have anything more to add concerning vaccination issues and infectious diseases there in general?
