I’m born and raised in HK it’s very interesting for me to see all these 24 things as a local. The best part is you have professionally done filming this video introduced HK to the world. Welcome to Hong Kong!
I just finished up my last day in HK and am watching this while waiting at the airport I went to the Peak Tram and the Sky Terrace last night, and while I think that they can be cool the first time around, I also think that the business model is a scam. You have to pay to take the tram up to the terrace building, and then you have to pay extra to access the sky terrace. They should tell you that at the beginning so that you’re not slapped with more charges when you’re so close. Oh, and you have to pay yet again for the ride back down; otherwise, you can get your 10,000 steps in and walk back down lol. The view on the ride up really is breathtaking, though, and I found that you can access one of the side doors on the floor below the terrace if you don’t want to pay for the top level. If you’re gonna do it, go after sunset!! I also fell in love with the K11 Musea. My hotel was right by the harbor, and there were multiple K11 establishments within walking distance, but the Musea might be the nicest shopping center/building that I have ever seen. The shrubbery hanging off the the exterior, but also lining the interior, is really cool to look at, and it is super clean and well-managed. I kept finding reasons to go back, even if it was to just walk around or grab a coffee. Shopping centers in HK are in a whole ‘nother stratosphere, and this one still stands apart from the rest Overall, Hong Kong is one of my favorite places. Visually, it’s changed so much since I visited as a child, and the energy is unlike any other metropolis that I have had the pleasure of visiting. I can’t wait to go back Thanks for sharing your adventures!
No need to pay for the Sky Terrace next time, you'll get all the views you need (and more) just walking around the local roads outside the Peak Tram station.
This video is amazing!. I'm going to HK in a month and I've noted all your tips 😊 and we be visiting them all. Definitely want to go to that coffee place where they do art style drinks looks fabulous
Thanks so much for your kind words! It means a lot and so glad it has helped to plan your trip! Have an incredible time there, so much to do and enjoy!!
Thanks guys for this video. Ive been making notes for my trip to Hong Kong later this year, I can not wait to try the Dim Sum there and loved the coffee with art printed on the top! I would not want to drink it! 🤣
That’s amazing! So glad we could be of help! Hope you’re having the BEST time! You’ll have to let us know what your favourite activity was at the end of your trip!
@@TwosomeTravellers I spent an amazing time in HK! Ngong ping village has magnificent views and I was lucky to have a clear sky despite the weather forecast) I don't know if it can be considered an activity but I also enjoyed eating egg tarts and waffles😁 thank you once again for helping to plan my trip:)
This was such a helpful video! What gear are you guys using to record? The picture is great and the audio is super clear too, even when it is noisy and windy!
Subscribed! 😉 Just got back from HK and showed up in my feed. Your content was super accurate and felt like I was still there. She’s quite a city isn’t she?
Great video. Loved the style of story telling. I am going to HK next week. This video will be helpful to plan my trip. BTW which camera & lens do you use for filming ?
Learn this - whenever you show a place a buzz about it, along with all the fuss you need to speak - where it is in hk !! Than only you can give advantage to the people otherwise who is interested just to see your face always !
Hey,thank you so much for this wonderful Video! -) Would love to see HongKong in real,hope,someday my Dream will come true! -) Kindest Regegards from Vienna,Austria,have you already beent there? Just keep up doing such First Class -Videos! -) Byr for now,Wolfgang _-)
@@TwosomeTravellers you should've ordered a coke or any soft drinks to complement the bowls of noodles - best experience of affordable food experience!
Hey! Thanks so much really appreciate the love on this one!! Yes of course, we stayed here: www.booking.com/hotel/hk/regal.en.html?aid=7979233&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2 It was super convenient walking distance from the station and right next to all the convenience stalls, also downstairs is Din Tai Fung!! Must try!
Egg tart is. Portuguese pastry not Chinese.portuguese took tag tart to Macau in the XV century and Chinese copied and called it egg tart Which in Portuguese is “pastel de nata”. Fortunately they don’t know how To do it in the right way. The best pastel de Nata is in lisbon in BELEM. It has a secretl how to do pastel de NATA, that chineses don’t know
It really depends on what you enjoy doing! You could check out the video and just select a couple things that you think you would enjoy most. You could tick of the ngong ping, big Buddha, po lin monastery all in one day. You can do kowloon side (Avenue of stars etc) in one day, or Hong Kong island. Those are your three main areas if you don’t want to travel too far in the 2 days you have :)
Must go to the peak,if you consider the tram to the peak is expensive : about 10 US dollars one way , take the mini bus or simply bus,will be cheaper and the scenery is just as awesome.Hong Kong by night looking down from peak is stunning gorgeous at another level,all the sparkling neon light from the high-rise just look like sparkling diamond and gemstones. One time I went to the peak during day time and stayed till dark,those 2 different kind of beauty of the Victoria harbour was unforgettable,. Also taking the star ferry across the Victoria harbour is cheap and scenic, a ride of tram of Hong Kong Island is also relaxing and very economiical.Central area in Hong Kong Island and harbourfront of tsimshatsui is a must see .At 8 pm daily ,there are night light shows on the buildings if you are on the harboutfront. For economical but delicious breakfast,go to cafe de coral.( Has a lot of branches all over Hong Kong where the locals like a lot)For the peak， no need to pay extra if you do not go to the places that requires you to pay extra,it is better to walk around on the peak so make sure you eat a very good breakfast before going there
While Hong Kong is great in many Regards. PLEASE study local laws like national security laws as well as soon enacted article 23 laws.Possess materials that upsetting local authorities can get you 7 years in jail.Lengthy remand periods are common in Hong Kong.Please comply all local laws there.Take care !
Seems like they are well-to-do travelers but have wayyy overpaid on a lot of the food that can be had at cheaper prices with just as good quality elsewhere in Hong Kong. Great couple though!
thank you guys i realy liked your video. but there is something which made me little disturbed. your followers are not only Australians thats why maybe you should stop underestimating currency with your aud... thanks for information btw cinematography was great.
Hey! We are based in Australia and spends AUD $$ and therefore we always convert to AUD :) Thanks so much re your comments, we always take on board! :)
Currently in HK now & id say, Get Google Maps & GET LOST !! Walk around, make unknown lefts & rights, take MTR, get off on unscheduled stop & walk around. Don't take all travel advice from RUclipsrs.
completely understand that you're tourists but anything run by the Maxim group (the dim sum restaurant you went to) has been boycotted seriously by locals since 2019 for ethical reasons. Their food and service are notorious as well (you might argue you were happy with your one-off experience there) but please just bear in mind locals have a strong discontent with any Maxim restaurants for seriously humane and ethical reasons! Some locals may still visit Maxim restaurants but 90% of them are elderly who support the community party. Plus, the dim sum lunch you paid was way overpriced for what you get.
Very quality video! love the way you guys walked us through the famous places we should check out and eats to have in Hong Kong. I'm moving there in November so thrilled to check out all these places!!! Thanks, guys! Btw, I love your accent.
And make sure to use the MTR so affordable and easy central is quite busy it’s where ifc is. If you want something more suburban move to discovery bay but no cars or taxi allowed until the hotel there is no MTR there but you can take the bus. Last of you want to be near the airport live in Tung Chung its so nice and there are a lot of things to do make sure if you go to Tung Chung go to city gate it has everything! These are all places I have lived in Hk but I recommend Tung Chung the most!

What are the other four? Just curious 😊

When visiting Hong Kong, as a resident of Hong Kong, I would suggest to come around from October to April as the summer would get way too hot
Luckily we visited in cool season! But we had a bit of rain!
How is January in Hong Kong? Will it be sunny or cloudy?
@@ngilnyatravels not too bad sometimes cloudy and sometimes cloudy
Thank you for this 🫶🏻

Dim sum is so good!
Hong Kong is such a great place! I just moved here recently and I cant get enough of it!
Lovely videos. It sums up so many great things and places to check out in Hong Kong. It's just missing a cup of milk tea lol
haha milk tea! We will have to add this to the list for next time hehe. Thanks so much for your kind words, it means so much! :)
Nice vid. I'm going to HK soon, thanks for the recommendations. What's the website for booking the Ngong Ping 360 cable car tickets? Thanks.

Careful where you dine. My friend caught typhoid eating in the back alleys of Hongkong.
nice video, thanks
Thanks so much!
Wow that woman hitting the table at 2:11 was mad lol
Things have changed a lot since I lived there about 30 years ago. It used to be very poor and dirty. It's all upmarket now.
A lot can change over 30 years, for a lot of places we can see this has happened. At least you have the core memories from before 🙏🏼
Hi, How you get back from lantau island? Do you take the ngong ping 360 again? Or there's other way to getting back to the city
How many days would be good for visiting Hong Kong? Thanks !
I like both of you 😍🥰🥰
Hey! Great video! What was the name of the dai pai dong?
Thanks so much Tristan. It's called Cheung Fat Noodles! (goo.gl/maps/hGRtwWq61WkfzPeX6)
It's at Shek Kip Mei Street, Sham Shui Po. Be prepared that if you go in summer, it'd de darn hot!
@@TwosomeTravellers you should've ordered a coke or any soft drinks to complement the bowls of noodles - best experience of affordable food experience!

@TwosomeTravellers thanks so much. Travelling from Sydney so hoping to get there maybe November!
Hello hong kong RUclipsr
I'm going next month! Any hikes people recommend? Also is it better to stay in Kowloon or HK island?
Could you give me the address or the place of Dai Pai Dong pls?
Loved this. My question is though, if you are from Australia, how do you sound so British?
We are British born and raised! But we have spent our last 10 years living in Australia 😄
Hi. What month was this filmed?
Hi question about Octopus Card, do they have Octopus card for kids in the vendor machine?
That's a great question, from memory they did sell them at the airport, not 100% sure at the other machines :)
You missed the Chi Lin Nunnery lol
Egg tart is. Portuguese pastry not Chinese.portuguese took tag tart to Macau in the XV century and Chinese copied and called it egg tart
Which in Portuguese is “pastel de nata”. Fortunately they don’t know how To do it in the right way. The best pastel de Nata is in lisbon in BELEM. It has a secretl how to do pastel de NATA, that chineses don’t know
What building is the roof top bar?
Hey there! This was Eye Bar. Address is here: 30/F, ISQUARE, 63 Nathan Rd, Tsim Sha Tsui 😊
thats right, i can use the octopus card on my wallet on my iphone ? i dont need a physical card ?
What time of year did you visit? I am going in the end of November and not sure what clothes I will need.
We visited during April time. It will be less humid in November (usually) and usually warm. A good time to go!
@@TwosomeTravellers thank you that is helpful ❤️
Hi, can you tell me which Dai pai dong you visited?
Same question, too. 😅
Most of what you advise ia food?!?!
Hi we will be visiting HK from July 5 to 7th, just for 2 days. Can you please give us a must thing to do in 2 days ?
It really depends on what you enjoy doing! You could check out the video and just select a couple things that you think you would enjoy most. You could tick of the ngong ping, big Buddha, po lin monastery all in one day. You can do kowloon side (Avenue of stars etc) in one day, or Hong Kong island.

Seems like they are well-to-do travelers but have wayyy overpaid on a lot of the food that can be had at cheaper prices with just as good quality elsewhere in Hong Kong. Great couple though!
We feel the food we ate was fair and relative to the price we paid. Of course there are other places in HK to eat (cheaper or more expensive) 😊
1:53 The Eiffel Tower is not the right analogy. It should be Hongkong = Dimsum and Paris = Croissant. Good vlog though!
Croissant sucks ass, so I think she was right to use the Eiffel Tower as an example.
As long as people get the gist of what we’re saying 😄
Coffee and Public Transportation being part of the HK Top 24... Ouch😅
Obviously not a coffee lover, nor have you visited enough countries where the public transportation is terrible 🫠
thank you guys i realy liked your video. but there is something which made me little disturbed. your followers are not only Australians thats why maybe you should stop underestimating currency with your aud... thanks for information btw cinematography was great.

How do you get so many subscribers
We feel we do not have that many tbh in comparison with other RUclipsrs!
I’d be scared to death being that high with only glass beneath me
$40 USA dollars is too much for dim sum
Under CCP control, Hong Kong is not that attractive anymore, but thank you guys visiting Hong Kong
Thank You Ho Wai for being a white worshipper.

Did you know that the Octopus card is an Oz invention yet they didn't have it in Oz until recently (tap & go)
Really?? Wow have never heard of that!

Thank you so much! You must be so excited to move there. Haha, we have a bit of a strange British/Aussie accent now, so appreciate that!! :)
And make sure to use the MTR so affordable and easy central is quite busy it’s where ifc is.

What about disneyland hong kong ? You guys didn’t say anything about that.
Very true! We didn’t get the chance to visit this year. But definitely worth visiting ☺️
May you advice what is the best number of Days to enjoy such tour around Hong Kong? Thanks.
Hey there, 5 days will be a good amount of time, but as always the more the better ☺️
Hi there, May I ask where is that Dai Pai Dong located? thank youuu
Thank you your video,so beautiful Hong Kong.😅
You are most welcome. Happy travelling in Hong Kong 🇭🇰😍
Can you share the location, which street or district is the Dai Pai Dong?
Regret that the one they’ve visited has already closed down due to restructuring of the area.
welcome to HK❤
Thanks so much! We loved HK and already can't wait to take a trip back!
