Is there any direct train from xiamen to shantou? If have how much the cost?

I'm afraid not. It is most convenient to travel by bus. There are many direct buses at Hubinnan Bus Station and Xinglin Bus Station to ST and it costs CNY56 per person.

Thanks for the information. As i know xiamen got 2 seaports (xiamen international cruise center at dongdu road and at wutong which is closer to xiamen airport). Which port should i take if i want to take a bus directly to ST. Please advise.

Hi, the International Tourist Port is only around 3km from Hubinnan Bus Station, where there are buses to ST. Besides, high-speed train service between Xiamen and ST has been put into use. You can go to Xiamen North Train Station to take high-speed train to Chaoshan Train Station, near which there are shuttle buses to ST city.
