Hong Kong Island Travel Answers

Hi there! i think u can go to the PEAK either before or after Ocean park! The peak is walking distance from Admiralty Station (MRT) and it is in Admiralty station too where ul Ride the bus going to Ocean Park. The peak is beautiful at night, but we went there in the morning before going to Ocean Park and the view was still fascinating. By the way, where is Citadines hotel located? Coz Ngong Ping is in Lantau Island and it's not that far from Disneyland... When we went to Disneyland, we went to Ngong Ping first in the morning... But based on ur itinerary, u can go to Ngong Ping morning til let's say after lunch, then u can go back to Tsim Sha Tsui for the space museum, avenue of stars and the light show from afternoon till night.

You are going to have two extremely tired kids if they are doing all those things with you. In fact you'll probably be pretty exhausted yourself. But (Day 4) you might want to sit down for a while after Ocean Park, you could take in a boat ride around Aberdeen Harbour, which is pretty interesting if you've never been to mainland China, very Chinese and very different from Victoria Harbour. (day 5) I'd say you are doing too much, but you can combine the escalators with the Peak Tram, and the Avenue of the Stars can be combined with the Space Museum (daytime) or with the light show (night time), and you definitely should take in a ride or two on the the Star Ferry, which is right there and very cheap. The Wetland Park is a long way away from everything else, you may need to reconsider that, or drop Ngong Ping, the Buddha and the Temple are very interesting (but maybe not for a 5 year old?), the Village is just junk that you can see anywhere. Also, both Ngong Ping and the Peak Tram can have very long lines, so go to one of them dead early, and for the other one be prepared to use a taxi or bus instead, you can judge it when you get there. At Ngong Ping you can jump the line by paying extra for a year pass on the cable car, seems excessive but it's not that expensive considering what you must be spending already. Don't forget, if you have to wait an hour in line to get there, you'll be waiting another hour in another line to get back, and all the taxis and buses coming back will be loaded too. You do not have the option of simply staying on the cable car. One thing you could consider is to move the escalators and Peak Tram to early morning on Day 4 to even things up a bit. Or drop the escalators altogether and just take the Peak Tram. Have fun!

Day 3 as well as night markets go to tsim Sha Tsui, walk along the waterfront, watch the sound and light show at 8pm, ride the star ferry to Central. Day 4 Ocean Park could be combined with trip to Stanley -beach, outdoor market, war cemetery, restaurants or Repulse Bay - beach, life saver's temple, or aberdeen - look at harbour, boat trip or with peak tram and walk round peak. Day 5 - you have too many things here, too far apart. Maybe to Nong Ping Cable car to Big Buddha and Po Lin monastery then take bus to Tai O to see traditional Chinese fishing village.(if you do this, do Peak with Ocean Park.) If you tire of Disney take a stroll from there to Inspiration Lake.

>> Day 5 full day sight seeing.....ngong ping 360,peak tram,escelators,wetland park,space mueseum,avenue of stars,light show, which of these can be combined together.... Sorry... I agree... it is impossible to do all those listed in one day. Too far apart. Especially if/since you are not familiar with the local transportation and with 2 kids. Just Ngong Ping will take you a good half a day. Going from Ngong Ping to the peak tram will take 1.5 to 2 hours. Same for Wetland (in Yuen Long). Peak Tram and Escalators can be combined. So are Space Museum and Avenue of Stars and Light Show. But between the 4 places, you would probably need to choose only 2. (Maybe 2 places plus Tsimshatsui (Ave of Stars and Light Show at night.. but you will miss the space museum as it would be closed).

i think ocean park is more intreseting than Disney.so,i suggest u stay less time in disney.if u want to a unique market,i suggest u go to mongkok.

hmmm It depends on what they are more interested in. but for me, I still prefer Disneyland over Ocean Park... I think kids will enjoy Disneyland as much as I did. ;)
