Public transport Hong Kong Island 香港岛

The Airport Express provides the fastest and most comfortable connection of Chek Lap Kok Airport on Hong Kong Island, 23-25 minutes. With a departure every 12 minutes, it serves Tsing Yi (12 minutes), Kowloon (20 minutes) and Hong Kong (23 minutes). The Airport Express Train runs daily from 05:50 a. m. to 00:48 a. m. and provides liaison every 15 minutes between Central and the airport. At each stop, you can access a match with one of the MTR metro stations.

A free shuttle service links each station from the Airport Express to the main hotels every 30 minutes from 6:10 a. m. to 11:00 p. m. These shuttles also lead to KCRC KCRC station and China Ferry Terminal on Kowloon.

Built in 1979, the Hong Kong Metro comprises 9 lines serving Hong Kong Island, the Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories and carrying more than 3 million users every day. From Central, the Hong Kong side, it is possible to reach directly or after connections:

Island Line: Sheung Wan or Wan Chai on Hong Kong Island.

Tsuen Wan Line: Tsuen Wan on West Kowloon.

Kwun Tong Line & Tseung Kwan O Line: Tiu Keng Leng and Po Lam side Kowloon is.

Tung Chung Line & Disneyland Resort Line: Tung Chung and Disneyland on the island of Lantau.

West Rail Line: Tuen Mun west of the New Territories.

My On Shan Line: Wu Kai Sha to the east of the New Territories.

East Rail Line: Lok Ma Chau and Lo Wu on the Chinese border.

The signs are written in Chinese and English. Upon arrival at the stations, their names are announced in Cantonese, Mandarin and English. Smoking, eating or drinking in the metro (fine) is prohibited. Rames travel from 6 h to 1 h (depending on lines). There is a ticket of HK $ 55 valid for a day to make unlimited journeys.
Ticket price is calculated based on distance to travel (HK $ 48 to HK $ 4,5). Tickets are available at every MTR station, at atms (please bring currency or exchange the counter). The Octopus card is the most convenient solution for longer stays in Hong Kong. This metro is one of the most modern and one of the cleanest in the world.

A very pleasant way of locomotion, these trams give the time to observe the surroundings all at leisure. In operation since 1904, they are only circulating on the coastal wrap, north of Hong Kong Island, between Shau Kei Wan on the east (via Happy Valley for some) and Kennedy Town on the Extreme west of the island. From the top of the imperial, the journey, along 16 km, takes a completely different dimension. The journey becomes magical in the evening when Hong Kong lights up.

Another alternative is the 15 C bus link between the Star Ferry terminal on Central and the funicular station. This one, the construction of which was funded by philanthropist Lawrence Kadoorie, leads to Peak (Lugard Road), since 1888. The Sky Pass is not necessary because you can have the same view right next to the arrival station.
