3 nights and 2 days in Hong Kong

My wife and I will be spending 3 nights and 2 full days in Hong Kong. We%26#39;re staying at the Conrad (Central?). What is the best way to get from the Airport to the hotel and any suggestions for things to do. We were thinking Big Budha, Peak (night?). We%26#39;d all so like to do some outdooring such as a hike.

3 nights and 2 days in Hong Kong

Hi, to get from airport to Conrad HK;well,there are three options,and let examine the costs for each:-

2 adults.

(A). Airport Express :- HKD200.00(HKD100/pax)

then complimentary shuttle bus-H1 to your hotel.

the free shuttle bus runs until 2310hrs.

(b). Airport bus- A11:- HKD80.00(HKD40/pax)

Alight at bus stop # 8(which is outside Queensway Plaza),then a walk of around 10-15minutes.

(C). Taxi from airport to hotel;average fare inclusive of bridge %26amp; tunnel fees:HKD300.00.

IMHO,I will go for (c).Option(b) is too cumbersome,especially with luggage.

As for other things to do complementing your proposed Big Buddha(Ngong Ping) and also Victoria Peak-you may wish to trawl HKTB-DiscoverryHK website.

Since you will be in Ngong Ping,you may also wish to consider a visit to Tai-O village.

Going to Sai Kung for seafood,and also hiking.

If you want to do a hike, you could go up to the Peak and then walk down basically following the tram line and then through Hong Kong Park to Admiralty and your hotel. The walk down takes around 90 minutes.

If you use the Group Promotion offer, the total cost for 2 people to Hong Kong Station is $160:

You can then either connect to the free shuttle bus H1 or take a taxi from Hong Kong Station. The taxi cost should be no more than $20 to $25, plus $5 for each piece of luggage that goes in the trunk.

For some hiking with a nice scenery, go around Lugard Road and Harlech Road at the Peak. It takes 45 minutes to one hour to do the circular route and it%26#39;s mostly flat. You get to see different sides of HK.

Another useful HK hiking site:

Do NOT miss the Peak at night! Even if somewhat cloudy or hazy, the view of Victoria Harbour is one you cannot miss.

If you%26#39;d like a SERIOUS hike, there is a wonderful path downhill from the Big Buddah / Monastery area to Tung Chung. It%26#39;s long -- maybe 2 - 3 hours , but very peaceful and quiet.

Then MTR back to Kowloon / HK Island.

The Hong Kong Tourist Agency can hook you up with a map.
