By long-distance Bus
It’s not recommended to take a long-distance Bus because it’s around 2000 km from Guangzhou to Qingdao, long time and no direct bus, you need transfer at another city and there’s only one bus every other day! Never take this way unless you know China very well or someone takes you together, it’s not friendly to foreigners.
