Asked by Samson Raman (Apr.17, 2013)
Lead to China Trip Advisor (Apr.17, 2013) replied:
Dear Samson Raman, thanks for your question. The quotation has been sent to your Email box. Please check it. From Chongqing to Kaifeng, there are two practical ways. One is taking train from Chongqing to Kaifeng directly, K16 (12:29 - 07:35),19 hours, CNY 325 for hard sleeper;K1064/K1061 (21:55 - 19:48),22 hours, CNY 325 for hard sleeper. The other quick and comfort way is taking flight from Chongqing to Zhengzhou(CNY450-660),then you can rent a car or take coach from Zhengzhou(76.7 kilometers away from Kaifeng) to Kaifeng, which takes about 1.5-3 hours. More questions, please contact with our CSD
