A 14-day Guangzhou trip costs about $76 per person on a standard budget, or as little as $76 on a budget tier. This covers hotels, meals, local transport, and attraction tickets.
The budget tier brings a 14-day Guangzhou trip down to about $76 by using $33/night hostels and guesthouses and eating at local spots ($32/day).
Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) offer the best weather for Guangzhou. Avoid Golden Week (early October) and May Day when prices and crowds spike.
The $76 standard estimate for 14 days in Guangzhou includes $33/night hotels, $32/day on meals, local metro and taxis, and entry to major attractions.
Add a nearby city by high-speed rail — most are 2–6 hours from Guangzhou. A 17-day version typically adds $31–$46 for the extra nights and one HSR leg.
