HK itinerary

not sure what time the markets in mongkok closes but it might be better to place mongkok on day 1.

place victoria peak on day 2 after ocean park and then tsim sha tsui or mongkok after victoria peak.

Any reason to have breakfast at Tsui Wah in Wellington Street when there is a Tsui Wah on Jordan Rd?

15 bus down from the Peak.

Also, it is 15C from central to the lower peak terminus and 15 back down.

Also going to Macau on a public holiday mightn%26#39;t be such a good idea. If you have to go that day, make sure to get your tickets well in advance. We went on a Thursday and were amazed at the number of people travelling.

We also found it better to plan out a day but not for a specific date, just wake up an see what the weather is doing, then work out what to do that day.

A lot depends on the weather, keep the peak for a day with good visability, same with Macau. Foggy days are good for shopping.

Have a great time,

Pat

Thanks for the quick replies!

greenarcher: Mongkok is open til 10- 1030...How do we get from Ocean Park to the Peak? My friends want to ride the tram up the peak, so if you could give directions to the Lower Peak Tram Terminus, but if a bus is more convenient then we%26#39;re open to that option also.

drumbrake: Aside from using the trip to Tsui Wah Central to look around Central...no reason..just plain ignorance =) We didn%26#39;t know there was one on Jordan road. All the Internet sites we came across pointed to Wellington. Our first choice was supposed to be Mak%26#39;s but some site said it opens at around 10am which is too late. Is Ka ka Lok near our hotel? We also want to try it out.

pat: Yup we really picked a good time to visit HK -a weekend and a holiday..=( But this is the only time our schedules matched... hmmm well ordinarily I would have put Macau on Tuesday...but my friends wanted to visit Disney on Tuesday to avoid the ';peak rate'; ticket of HK DIsney during holidays and weekends...

Additional questions: Are there shops selling ';chops'; in the night markets?(Temple or Mongkok) Or are Man Wa Lane and Stanley the places to get chinese name chops made?

Is there a place in Jordan that serves good roast goose and packages it to go..I mean for the plane ride back home?

take a bus from ocean park to central, then another bus from central to the peak tram terminus (bus 15C). get off at the terminus and ride the tram going up the peak.

if you have kids, better get off at admiralty...

go thru and out pacific place mall, and go through the hk park. the park will be a fun activity / stroll thru specially for the kids...

when you get out of the park, the peak terminus is just across the road.
