Xiamen to Quanzhou Bus
Taking a bus from Xiamen to Quanzhou is a viable alternative to a high-speed train. Several bus companies operate regular services between Xiamen and Quanzhou.
Buses usually depart from Xiamen's main bus terminals, such as Xiamen Jimei Bus Station, and arrive at various bus stations in Quanzhou, including Quanzhou Bus Station and Quanzhou Jinjiang Bus Station. The bus journey typically takes about 1.5 hours, depending on traffic conditions. Buses are fairly frequent, with departures every 20 to 30 minutes during peak times.
Tickets can be bought at the bus station on the day of travel ranging from CN ¥ 24 - 42, but it's often more convenient to book in advance online or through a travel agency. This is especially true during peak travel times, such as national holidays, when buses can get quite busy.
One of the main advantages of taking the bus over the train is that it can save you the trouble of transfers. Buses provided by travel agencies can also offer a more direct route to your final destination in Quanzhou, as they often stop at various points throughout the city.
