Taxis are the most convenient way to get to the city centre and will bring you to downtown Hong Kong in 30-50 minutes. Alternatively, the Airport Express train will get you to Hong Kong station in around 25 minutes. Numerous local buses are also available and will take you to any of several centrally-located destinations in the city.

With a world-renowned skyline, stunning natural beauty, and delicious local cuisine, Hong Kong promises all travellers exciting and unique experiences bound to create lifelong memories.

Begin your trip by marvelling at panoramic views of the cityscape from Victoria Peak - the highest point on Hong Kong Island. To get there, we recommend taking a ride on the historic Peak Tram, which passes through the bustling districts of Admiralty, Central, and Mid-Levels. Be sure to enjoy the picturesque views before heading into The Peak Galleria for some food and light shopping.

Hong Kong is also home to magnificent natural beauty and many well-known hiking trails. One of the most famous hiking destinations is Dragon’s Back, which is situated on the southern half of the island and provides gorgeous views of rolling emerald hills and the coastline. 2 other great options for a fun-filled day are Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park, both of which offer a variety of thrilling rides and attractions.

The city is also renowned for its countless high-end malls that you can spend hours in. Head to Pacific Place in Admiralty, or K11 MUSEA in Tsim Sha Tsui where you can also appreciate the spectacular views of Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong Island from the waterfront promenade.

Adventurous travellers will be happy to hear that Hong Kong is a great destination for day trips. It is easy to think that the bustling city is all concrete and skyscrapers, and if you venture further out, you will find countless sleepy neighbourhoods surrounded by nature. We recommend heading to Stanley - a beachside hangout offering a variety of activities for all types of travellers. Families and shoppers will enjoy strolling down Stanley Market, where a collection of shops sell everything from souvenirs to clothes. At the end of the market is a quaint beach perfect for an afternoon of relaxation, while a hike to the infamous ‘Rhino Rock’ is an awesome photo opportunity.

Before your flight to Hong Kong with Cathay Pacific, book your stay at one of Hong Kong’s most renowned hotels to earn exciting rewards including room upgrades, lounge access, and extra miles. We recommend staying at a hotel like the Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong if you want to be close to the hustle and bustle, or Rosewood Hong Kong for a truly relaxing stay in Asia’s World City.

Hong Kong is a truly international city which is reflected by its dining scene. On the one hand, you have a plethora of world class restaurants to choose from, and on the other, a range of quintessentially local food options you will soon wish you could get back home. The Central District is truly at the heart of Hong Kong and is the best place to go for international food options. Consider grabbing some New York-Italian food at Carbone or vibrant Indian fare at Bombay Dreams - both of which are sure to impress. If you fancy trying some local dishes, we recommend heading to a ‘cha chaan teng’ (a local tea restaurant) for favourites such as wonton noodle soup, sweet and sour pork, and pineapple buns.
