Is there a train from Guangzhou to Dali? fast train or normal!

I am sorry that there is no direct train service between these two places. The distance is about 1,050 miles (1,690km). You are advised to fly to Kunming first (about 2.5 hours). Then, fly to the destination (about 1 hour). Have a nice trip! :)

Dear Sal, you may take an ordinary train to Kunming from Guangzhou Railway Station (about 25 to 29 hours). Next, take bus line 80 to West Bus Station. Then, take a bus to DL. The buses are available from 7:20 to 20:00, and the trip takes about 6 hours. The fare is CNY 110 or 137 per person.
