Looks good to me, kind of relaxing and not rushing all over the places..  Seems like you are not into shopping ah?

Some comments here:
Day 2, NP360 is just the name of the cable car, so actual sightseeing is the Ngong Ping Village, Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastry.  While there, can also visit the Wisdom Path.  Looks like you'll have ample time, so I suggest after that, take the New Lantau Bus from Ngong Ping to Tai O - a fishing village, can have your lunch there if not taking the vegetarian meals at NP or Po Lin Monastery.  Either take a bus back to NP and cable car back to Tung Chung, or bus from Tai O back to Tung Chung(40mins bus ride, around scenic mountain's and sea view, also passes by a big reservoir).  At Tung Chung, can jalan jalan a bit at CityGate Mall - the outlets mall, even if you are not into shopping (hmmm, just enjoy the air-cond a bit)....

Day 3, am - not sure what ya means by HK Island City? 
I would suggest instead of taking star ferry on Day 2 night, take the star ferry from TST (bus from Jordon to TST terminal) to Wan Chai Pier and visit the Golden Bauhinia Square.

To me Golden Bauhinia Square nothing special, i mean HK island City, will be staying in the HK island site since noon/evening will be going to the peak.
Any good places to go over here? thinking to take the tram "ding ding" to see around.
or any good place to shopping at HK island, causeway bay? what is recommended to go over causeway bay?

Day 4, after Ocean Park, how about dinner and jalan jalan at Causeway Bay?

Day 5, after Disneyland, maybe jalan jalan at Ladies Street and have supper at Mongkok area?

Hi guys!

Me & my GF going HK end Nov, pretty much have our itinerary planned out, just still undecided between Ocean Park & Disneyland. Short trip so can't go both, which one is better considering neither of us have been to HK or any disneylands before?

Hi all,

I would like to ask how much on average does a guys T-shirt cost in HK?

Thanks.

do you mean branded or normal?

yeah, we were thinking of going the extra mile and off the beaten tracks,
with visits to cheung chau, and the fishermen villages.
but to no avail, time was rather tight.
maybe in the next trip?

and this time I swear to go during the cooler season!!!
Sept was DAMN DAMN hot last year. but thankfully we avoided the typhoon/heavy rains.

Hi, I found this website more useful(to the traveller) than the official HK tourism web(official web is more towards promoting/advertising):
http://www.hongkongextras.com/index.html

My previous trip, I did go to Cheung Chau.  A bit late at 3pm and my parents are tired liao.  Also, rain a bit shortly after we reached there.  So, only see the Pak Tai temple, walk along the beach and around the town area.  There are many seafood restaurants there, live seafood, price looks reasonable but we didn't eat there.

I reckon if go in the morning, energetic and adventurous, can follow the walking trail and explore Cheung Chau.  Do take note that the ferry fare is more expensive on weekends.  If you are generous with your time, take the "ordinary" ferry will do(which I did), no need to take the "express" service.  You can find the ferry schedule and fare from New Ferry web.

Btw, have you visited the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Temple (Man Fatt Tze) previously?  I would recommend this temple.

Do check on the link above, lots of idea, esp those off the beaten tracks.  I did the "scenic bus ride" to Stanley.  And I visited Tai O fishing village on Lantau Island, that's after Big Buddha and Wisdom Path.

Hiya, I read your blog while preparing for my trip.  I went 6 months after your trip, in March, on first day of second month (Chinese calender) - nice cool weather.  That's according to the Chinese Calender, a few days after the "Spring starts" day.  I'm now starting to believe in those special days (those "seasons") reflected in Chinese calender, quite accurate to predict weather, esp if pertaining to the Northern China..

Just normal brands like Nike,Esprit. Not the high end kind.

Thanks.
