How to buy tickets for Gulangyu Island? What are the fun attractions in Gulangyu Island?

When traveling to Gulangyu Island, you will definitely encounter such problems, that is, how to buy ferry tickets and what attractions are there on the island? Today, the editor will introduce it to you in detail. Friends who plan to visit Gulangyu Island should not miss it.

1. Ticket purchase channels

There are three ways to buy tickets for Gulangyu Island.

1. Buy tickets with Alipay.

Search for Xiamen Ferry Company on Alipay, then select the time and ferry frequency, pay attention to the limit of 5 tickets, and then board the boat with your ID card one hour in advance. Can be purchased 15 days in advance. Try to buy in advance. If there is no ticket for the terminal flight or there is no suitable time, there will be a temporary ticket.

Now you can buy it not only through Alipay, but also through WeChat official accounts and WeChat mini programs. You can find it by searching Xiamen Ferry or Gulangyu Island.

2. On-site ticket purchase

On the day of the tour, you can buy tickets at the Xiamen Gulou Pier and Cruise Center with your ID card at the self-service or manual ticket window.

If everyone has an ID card, you can use the self-service ticket vending machine; if you have other documents (such as household registration book, passport, etc.), you can go to the manual ticket window.

The disadvantage of this kind of purchase is that it is suitable for the very off-season, otherwise the waiting time at the terminal does not conform to the travel logic of modern people; in addition, there are occasional on-site ticket sales during holidays.

3. Travel website air tickets

All major travel websites charge ticket purchase service fees. If you don’t want to register an account to select flights and it’s troublesome to get tickets, you can pay a service fee and let others buy tickets for you.

It is generally a business practice to provide 40-50 yuan vouchers for Gulangyu Island ferry tickets and XX attractions.

It is recommended to ignore the latter. Your focus is on the ticket. If you are interested in XX scenic spots, you can use vouchers to calculate whether it is cheaper, or buy tickets directly on the website to see which one is cheaper.

This method is relatively labor-saving, of course based on your recognition of the "service fee".
