First time to Hongkong
 
We need advice please, hubby and I are stopping off for four days in Hongkong on 11th April. We are travelling from Sydney Australia via Hongkong to Vancouver.
We are on a budget and have pre booked our hotel through a travel agent.
Can anyone give us some tips as to what to do and see while we are there, we have no idea. Many thanks Val

Hi

My wife and I did 4 days in Hong KOng a couple of years back in connection with a trip to Beijing and Xi'an. I have posted a trip report with some pictures on my homepage http://gardkarlsen.com. Maybe you can find some useful information there :-) Get in touch if you have any questions or comments.

Beware the wrapround - you'll probably need to copy and paste the link rather than just clicking on it.

Sorry, my original message doesn't seem to be here. This is the whole thing -

I posted quite a long report of my trip to HK in January this year, which may be helpful -

Besides Xenos', there are also lots of other trip reports and other threads on "what to do in Hong Kong for (x) days)". Several other posters, myself included, visited HK during the Christmas/New Year break. Do a search on this forum for those posts.

Also, visit the Hong Kong Tourism Board's website at: www.discoverhongkong.com. Lots of ideas there.

But briefly - 1 day HK Island (Peak, Stanley, Aberdeen, etc) 1 day Kowloon markets. 1 day Lantau. 1 day depending on your interest.
