Hi Andre,

The bus will be more convenient, it departs every 20 minutes from 7:20am to 19:00pm in Guiyang Long Distance Bus Station, cost at around CNY60. It drives around 3 hours, which is same as train. But the trains are always crowed, and if you can't get the hard seat, it is terrible to get the stand ticket to Kaili.
