Budget Night Cruise in Hong Kong!? Must-Try Ferry Ride for Your Hong Kong Trip

Did you know that Hong Kong is actually made up of several islands? The main tourist attractions are located on Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, and nowadays, transportation options like trains and cars are well-developed. However, in the past, ferries were the primary mode of transportation between these two areas. Even today, ferries continue to operate, and this route is highly recommended! ▪️ Overview of Hong Kong Ferries 📍 Star Ferry Terminals: Tsim Sha Tsui (Kowloon Peninsula), Central (Hong Kong Island), Wan Chai (Hong Kong Island) 💰 Approx. 100 yen (card payment available) ⏱️ Duration: About 5 minutes 🚢 Frequency: About one ferry every 10 minutes The ferry route takes you from one of the terminals on Hong Kong Island to Tsim Sha Tsui on the Kowloon Peninsula. The recommended route is "Central" to "Tsim Sha Tsui." (Choose your starting point based on your itinerary.) Central is the heart of Hong Kong, packed with tourist attractions. It's also close to Lan Kwai Fong, a popular nightlife spot in Hong Kong. While you can now travel from Hong Kong Island to the Kowloon Peninsula by train, which is more convenient and drops you closer to your destination, taking the ferry is a must for tourists! ✨ Although it may not be the "million-dollar night view," the nighttime scenery of Victoria Harbor is stunning 🌙. The ride is short but absolutely worth it! Plus, it's incredibly affordable, making it highly recommended. Not only can you enjoy the night view, but you can also take the ferry during the day to experience a different perspective of the scenery!
