take an airport shuttle bus line 4 to China International Exhistrongition Center and take a taxi to the hotel, or you can take taxi directly from the airport to the hotel.

I need to know how to reach from Beijing Airport to Theianmen Centre By Bus in the morning-- bus no., fair , etc. please.

No direct airport shuttle to Tiananmen infact, you may take airport shuttle bus line 2 to Xidan, or line 4 to Gongzhufen first, and then take a taxi to Tiananmen within 10 minutes. The bus ticket is CNY16 per person.

Carl :11/4/2011 6:09:09 PM

I strongly advise you book a one-day Beijing tour through a China travel company in advance in order to have an enjoyful trip in Beijing.

I am reaching at Beijing Capital Airport on 8th morning. Kindly tell me about how to do one day tour of Beijing immediately after my reachin there.

There's a shuttle bus from Beijing International Airport to Tianjin, right? Does it operate early in the morning (flight arrival 5.25 am) and where are the drop off points? Can we buy the shuttle tickets beforehand or on boarding the bus and where do we board the bus? Lastly, what's the travel time from PEK airport to Tianjin?

Beijinger :10/22/2011 6:44:10 PM

the first shuttle bus from the airport to Tianjin departs at 08:00 in the morning, so i guess you need to wait at the airport. the bus drops off at Tianjin Tianhuan Long-distance Bus station, which is at the northeast corner of the crossing of Hongqi Rd and Anshan West Avenue.
you can buy the bus ticket on boarding bus.
the departure places in the airport are:
Beijing departure point :
T1/T2: In front of Gate 15 on the 1st Floor of T2,
T3:In front of Gate 3 on the 1st Floor
the travel time is 2.5 hours.

If you will get out of the airport, you do need an transit visa.

How can I get from Capital Airport in Beijing to 36 Nan Wei Road. It rather close to Temple of Heaven. Thanks.

Elizabeth :6/20/2011 11:48:08 PM

take the airport shuttle bus line 2 to Fuxingmen Qiaodong stop, and walk westward for about 60 meters to take Bus no. 15 to Nanweilu stop, and walk westward along the Nanwei Road for about 200 meters, you will get to your destination.

Is there a airport shuttle bus to Tianjin-Xingkang Port? How much is the shuttle and the schedule? Thanks.

Lisa :1/6/2011 8:55:00 PM

Are you sure? there is only one port named tanggu port instead of Xingkang Port In tianjin actually, and there isn't any airport shuttle from the airport to ttanguport.
