Day 1- Ok
Day 2- Yep definitely can make it for Victoria Harbour. Because TBH u won't spend hours and hours in the night market there.. But are u going to see the Symphony Light Show? If yes have to be there at 7pm.
Day 3 - OK
Day 4- Cant comment. never been there.
Day 5- I supposed u bought from Klook? Coz meeting up at the station exit
I feel 3.30 is slightly late la..because u still have to walk in, wait for the train to come(the crowd is crazy,even though u get from Klook but still have to queue). That time from meeting up in exit until we reached up there, 30-45 mins are gone.. And after u visit Madame Tussads, Trick Eye, it might be already 6.30 or 7? And trust me, the crowd waiting to at Sky Terrace is scary. That time i have to go there at 5+ to secure a nice spot.. If not u basically can't see things except all the people's head. U better go there early, get a nice spot. Take some sunset photos and night view photos, around 8+pm faster leave The Peak.
Day 6- Did u research if the cable car is back to operation? Because i know it was closed for maintenance when i was there 4 months ago. If not it will affect the time for ur day 6.
But overall i realise u spent a lot of days in Hong Kong Island. Never plan to visit more Kow loon? U can consider spend more time at Mong Kok, Yau Ma Tei, TST, Sham Shui Po. I love Sham Shui Po.
Thanks for the feedback
Day 2- Not sure actually, but not likely to see the symphony of light show. I think we'll prioritize the street/ market strolling and shopping on Day 2.
- Even so, thanks for the tip coz if not too tired and time permits, might consider it.
- How long is the show by the way? We can catch it from anywhere in the Victoria Harbour? Or does it have to be on the AquaLuna?
Day 5- Yes! A lot of the tickets for attractions I'll get it from Klook ^___^ its cheaper and more convenient.
- I see, then I'll get the earlier session. The 2pm session should give us sufficient time I assume?
Yes it's back in operation. Otherwise I believe Klook can't sell it too
For some reason I keep finding interesting places/ things to do in HK Island. I'm actually very keen to do hiking, and there's a highly recommended place - Dragon's Back at Shek O Country Park - but I don't see how we accommodate that. Initially was worse, there's even a 1-day to Macau loll! But told my friend I don't think we have time for it.
Due to the short time span of only 5 days (can't really count the first day haha), we're only mostly doing the main attractions. Mong Kok is mostly for the night market. What is nice in Sham Shui Po? I think we'll just quickly drop by the street market and only make stops at whatever attracts our attention.
Friend is going to give birth to twins so I'm also looking for cute/ unique baby clothes that I can buy in HKG. Hopefully there will be interesting items in the market. Is the style similar to Bangkok or other markets where you can haggle 50% off the selling price?
Is there any recommendation for Day 6? We will have to store our luggage in the airport; does HKG airport have coin lockers like Japan? Or they only have counters to keep luggage? If yes, any idea estimated how much it costs?
