Itinerary for me

Looking for help from the HKG experts on here.





From the following attractions, can you work out an itinerary for me and the easiest route to get there. Trying to find which MTR/bus/citybus to take is a little overwhelming!!



Basically I%26#39;m not sure how much we can fit into each day since I don%26#39;t know the distance between these places.





Arrive 6:00 am May 4 (12 hour flight from Canada. Won%26#39;t want to do anything until the evening)





Depart 9:00 am May 8 to Vietnam





Hotel: Kimberley Hotel in TST district





Attractions we would like to see and do...





Ocean Park



Peak



Symphony of lights cruise with english commentary



Buddha/monestary



Avenue of Stars



Shopping





Thank you very much!!!



Itinerary for me


day 1





presumably, you will arrive in your hotel around 9am. too early for check-in and most stores are still closed. you can leave your luggage in the hotel and grab a local meal from just across the hotel (this is what we did), you can walk around the area of your hotel to kill time. nothing much to do in the hotel anyway. you can head to avenue of stars by foot or by taxi after dinner and then return to the area of your hotel to end the day, most shops are open till midnight. (granville area, canton road and nathan road)





day 2





take the mtr from tsim sha tsui to admiralty around 930am. from admiralty take the bus going to ocean park. the park closes at 5, take a bus going to central and from central take the bus going to the peak tram terminus. ride the tram going up. you can head to the night markets of mongkok afterwards (via bus+mtr)





day 3





take the mtr to tung chung. visit the giant buddha / monastery, etc. if you finish early (like say 2 or 3pm), you can head back to tsim sha tsui for shopping (in harbour city) or visit stanley, a famous tourist spot.





day 4





take the mtr to central, lots of places to eat and a couple of places to see. after lunch, take the old tram to causeway bay.



Itinerary for me


Why won%26#39;t you want to do anything the entire first day? We had a 9 hour flight from Sydney and were so excited, we were out and about. I thought the same as you that we would be too tired but the adrenalin kicks in and there is so much to see.



Do you have an early check in? Most places don%26#39;t allow check in until later in the day.



Let us know when you are checking in and if you really want to do nothing the first day and we can take it from there.
