Ride the Peak Tram (tickets included) to the Sky Terrace at the top of the hill and gaze out over the city from the observation deck – the highest in Hong Kong at 1,400 feet (428 meters).
Next, get a taste of traditional life in Hong Kong with a visit to the Aberdeen Fishing Village. Perhaps opt for a sampan cruise (own expense) around the village, or stroll along the riverbanks, admiring the rows of colorful junk boats and watching the local fishermen at work.

The actual trip was good with good spots and a tour guide with good English communication skills. The information on the webpage is misleading. The tour information says that it includes two way express train ticket from the airport but it is not actually included. I ended up paying HKD 210 out of pocket for that. Additionally when I reached to the pickup point at W hotel, they couldn't find my information anywhere. It took multiple phone calls to the local agent and viator to have someone come to pick us up.
Please notice the booking time is 22:44. Book for a tour next day. The office was closed and a reservation staff noticed this order next morning. I am glad you made this trip eventually. Thank you for your support and understandings.
This amazing fast clean and cheap Express train is the quickest and best way from the airport. Also make use of the airline check in at Hong Kong station they are such an easy and convenient way to drop of your bage which are then transferred to your flight leaving more time to fo shopping or food in the IFC mall directly accessed via the lift in the station.
<p>Hi there.....<br/> just wanting to let everybody know when taking this tour to watch out for the extreme traffic at certain times, especially during rush hour! Taking the airport shuttle bus to and from downtown Hong Kong will take about one full hour depending on the traffic. And it will depart always every 60 minutes, not every 30 minutes.... I wish I could have stayed at every spot a bit longer, except the jewelery manufactory. That is a bit like a sales session. Stanley Market closes around 6-6:30 PM, so you need to get there earlier to spend more time! Also, to see the fishing village you will need to take the ride on a boat to see it because it is hidden and the ride cost you too! I had to take a taxi going back to the hotel to take the shuttle bus...otherwise I would not have made it on time! Highlight of this tour was definately the tram ride.....breathtaking views!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the timing of the tour and the time of the shuttle bus did not match up. The tour finished at 7-7:30pm, which meant that I had to leave the tour without seeing the Stanley markets, just so I could make the 6:25pm shuttle bus back to the airport. Also, the workroom at the Jewellery factory is shut on Sundays, so you can't see how the jewellery is made.</p>
<p>Traffic is a bit of a problem and we are grateful that we chose the option of a private tour although it costed us more. Keith our driver was amazing and very forthcoming with information about the city. The tour is but only a touch of Hong Kong but very useful when you would want to return.</p>
