Will we need a visa to visit Shenzhen for 4 days while we are on holiday in Hong Kong in October?

My wife and I are UK ciizens. We are both 77 years old. We will be on holiday in Hong Kong from the UK for two weeks, later this year. We wish to visit Shenzhen from Hong Kong for four days (three nights). Our visit to Shenzhen would be for tourism - mainly shopping, sightseeing and restaurants. We would probably travel to Shenzhen by train from Hong Kong. We would stay in one of the main hotels in Shenzhen. The main reasons for our holiday in Hong Kong are tourism and to visit our son and his wife. Our son and his wife live and work in Hong Kong. They have been there for two years. May we please ask if you can advise whether we will need a full visa for our Shenzhen visit or whether there is a lower cost pass we can get for the 3 night visit? Thank you.

Shenzhen 5-day VOA will give you 5 days in Shenzhen at a cost of CNY 130 per person but you can only apply for it at Luohu, Huanggang and Shekou Port, so you need to take the MTR to Lo Wu (Luohu Port on Shenzhen side), or take a ferry to Shekou Port to apply for the VOA, rather than taking a bullet train.
