You'll have to get a Chinese Visa for mainland and it's $140ish for a few yrs. Must pay agency or representative must take your papers/$
I believe you can do it in HKG at Consulate in 24 hrs but what a waste of "tour" time. You can have our DL agency do it and bill you, too.
We stayed only HKG because we didn't have the visas yet--had to get Boss his 2yr PP and Russian visa. Plan to do that for this fall trip to Beijing.
Please feel free to ask more details for logistics etc. I did a massive amt of research.
I highly recommend splitting the two experiences since we have the air--it's about $35RT/pax. Weather is so diverse--you could be packing for two very diff climates.
I have been to Guangzhou previously and I would not waste time going there. You can take side trip to Macao (Portugese colony) from HKG--lots of casinos+historical sights. Must take passport BTW--no visa req'd tho.
There is so much to see/do in HKG proper.
Ck websites for holidays/spec events--high convention time in APril they say.
