took bus 15 from the ferry, all the way to the top for $9HK, and was not disappointed by the views only the bus can offer, (sat on top level of an A/C double decker). bus 15c only goes to the tram station, so for a little extra its worth it to go all the way to the top. once... more

We took the ferry from the pier at Kwooloon to the island. The ticket price was $7HKD for adult and half price for kids. The boat trip took only few minutes. From the island we took the double decker bus 15C to the peak tram. Make sure you get on upper deck. The upper deck is an open deck so... more

Yes, it's commercial, but the views are gorgeous and the old tram one of the few remnants of Old Hong Kong. Worth at least one visit. more

We took a taxi up the peak and took the tram back down. The tram ride was worth doing. The top of the peak has a shopping mall, so you'll need to walk through to get to the best view. There's a great terrace on top of the mall where you'll have the best unobstructed view of the city. more

You've read it before and you'll read it again - if you're only going to see one thing in Hong Kong then this is it! The views from Victoria Peak are just absolutely spectacular! Your digital camera will not do it justice! To get there, we took the MTR to Central (J2 exit) and up to Garden Road and kept... more

Unfortunitly we went on a misty day but the views are amazing. The bus ride to the peak is a bit of a white knuckle ride (its a double decker going up a steap hill!!!!) The views at night would be great i'm sure better than the day time. The only downer is the qew for the tram but its... more

What a pleasant suprise...actually having a full size shopping centre at the peak, so the missus can continue on her merry way with the credit cards. However, this is a must-do in HK, and rather than tram it to the peak, during peak hour/season, a bus does the job nicely, and you can take your time selecting a tram going... more

It's a phenonmenal view from the top, but it's also a spectacular tram ride up, as you wind up the steep mountainside, catching glimpses onto high-rise penthouse gardens along the way. Make sure to sit on the right hand side of the tram car on the way up if you can, as all the views are to the right. No... more

When we arrived in HK, grabbed a cab to our hotel, the only thing our taxi driver recommended to us was to see the Peak and we did (at night). WOW! We were there when they had the grand opening of the new viewing deck with new shops and restaurants. We didn't get a chance to actually get on the... more
