One Day tour

We%26#39;re going to HK in May, since we will arrive very late, we will stay in Novotel Citigate HK for convenience. This is the sample of my tour, please let me know if i can add something in.

10:30 - 14:00 : Disney Land

14:00 - 18:00 : Shopping in Causeway Bay and Mongkok

18:00 - 21:00 : The Peak, Madame Tussaud, watch Symphony of Lights and Dinner.

21:00 -23:00 : Ladies Market

23:00 : Depart for Macau by Ferry

Plus when we arrive HK, it%26#39;s gonna be late night (22:00), any suggestion for nice food around Tung Chung area (Novotel Citigate)?

Thanks heaps...

One Day tour

Your entire plan is too rushed actually. You have to take stuff out instead of trying to add things.

1. Disneyland is an all day affair. You cannot realistically find it enjoyable in 3.5 hours. They also have fireworks at night. At a minimum, you%26#39;d need 6 hours to make the admission worthwhile.

2. Shopping: in four hours, you can%26#39;t shop at both Mong Kok and Causeway Bay. For mall shopping, go to Tsim Sha Tsui%26#39;s Harbour City and Canton Road instead. TST is just 3 stops from Mong Kok so you can at least have some time for Ladies Market.

3. Peak, Symphony of Lights, etc: You can%26#39;t fit all these in 3 hours. It%26#39;d take you an hour to go roundtrip to/from the Peak. Let%26#39;s say dinner takes you one hour, you%26#39;d have no time for Madame Tussaud (which is the first thing on the list I%26#39;d take out).

4. Food: are you saying your arrival flight is at 22:00 the night before? Then why are you starting out so late the next day?

Anyway, you can either eat at the hotel (I think most restaurants at Citygate will be closed by the time you get there), or eat at the airport. One floor up from departure hall are some proper restaurants. I suggest you go to the arrival hall though as there are many quicker choices that aren%26#39;t expensive.

Finally, over all, you%26#39;ve got too much on your plate. You are trying to squeeze two to three days of sightseeing into 12 hours. You need to re-think what you really want to do and take out some stuff.
