How many days in Hong Kong? — Two to three days is enough to visit most major tourist spots in Hong Kong. Plan at least 3 days if you want to go on a side trip to Macau. Consider a longer trip to enjoy a relaxed pace, especially if you’re interested in exploring the local sights & food scene.

Hong Kong visa-free travel for Pinoys — Philippine passport holders do not need a visa to travel to Hong Kong. Simply show up at the airport and get your passport stamped. Filipinos can stay for up to 14 days visa-free per entry.

Getting around Hong Kong — Exploring Hong Kong is very easy, even for first-timers. The HK Airport Express train to the city center takes 24 minutes. The discount fare is HKD 72 if you book online (HKD 115 if you buy at the station). If you plan to get around using Hong Kong’s efficient train/bus system or on foot, Google Maps is super useful. The directions feature only works online, so you will need mobile internet to use the app.

Where to Stay in Hong Kong

Tsim Sha Tsui (TST) and Central are the best areas to stay in Hong Kong. TST offers a wider variety when it comes to prices. You can find hostels/guesthouses catering to backpackers and low budget travelers as well as 5-star hotels. Meanwhile, hotels in Central caters to a more upscale crowd.

If you’re set on a splurge, choose a hotel near the waterfront for sweeping views of Hong Kong‘s skyline and Victoria Harbour. In this case, stay in Tsim Sha Tsui (TST), which offers a view of the more impressive Central Hong Kong‘s skyline.

The neighborhoods of Jordan, Mong Kok, Sheung Wan and Wan Chai are also great options as these places are located next to Tsim Sha Tsui and Central. If you plan to stay in these areas, remember to choose a location within easy walking distance to an MTR train station.

How to get to Hong Kong

Flights arrive at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), the primary gateway to Hong Kong. Travel time from Hong Kong Airport to the city center takes 20 to 24 minutes by train. From mainland China, direct ferry links are available from Macau and many Chinese cities. There’s also the option of crossing the land border from Shenzhen by train or bus.

Philippines to Hong Kong

Cebu Pacific, Philippine Airlines, AirAsia and Cathay Pacific operate direct flights from Manila to Hong Kong. Travel time from Manila by plane is 1 hours and 55 minutes. Direct flights are also available from Cebu, Iloilo, and Clark.

How to get from Hong Kong Airport to the city center

By train — The airport express train is the fastest way to get to the city center. Travel time is 20 minutes to Kowloon station. The one-way fare is HKD 105 per person. Getting to Hong Kong station takes 24 minutes and costs HKD 115 per person. Book your airport express train tickets online to enjoy up to 40% off the walk-in/regular fare.

By bus/shuttle — A cheaper but more time consuming alternative than taking the airport express train. Use the directions feature in Google Maps to check airport bus routes that have drop-offs near your hotel. Or, book direct airport to hotel shuttle/coach transfers online.

Hong Kong Airport Shuttle Bus

By Taxi/Uber — Taxi fares from Hong Kong Airport to downtown usually costs HKD 270 to 370. You can also use the Uber app for convenient & safe rides in Hong Kong.

Get Uber

By private car — For hassle-free transfers, book a private car with a convenient direct hotel drop-off/pick-up. You can hire a car that can seat up to 3 people or a van (MPV) for bigger groups (up to 6 people per car). Click below to see discount prices.

How to find cheap flights to Hong Kong?

The easy way is to search on airfare comparison sites that can show you the lowest fares on multiple airlines in one go.

I use these sites often to find the best prices on flights. Check as many sites as possible because not all may display the same results. Click below to start your search.

Also, check Hong Kong promo alerts several weeks or months ahead of your trip if you are planning your trip early. The cheapest promos are usually sold well in advance of the travel/flight departure date.

To learn more, visit the guide on how to book cheap flights.

Do I need a Visa to travel to Hong Kong?

Filipino/Pinoy tourists (Philippine passport holders) do not need to apply for a visa before arriving in Hong Kong if the purpose of the visit is for tourism or transit only. Simply show up at the immigration checkpoint and get your passport stamped. Filipinos usually get a maximum stay of 14 days.

Always remember that all countries have the right to refuse entry to any person. Even if you are eligible for the free tourist visa or already have one on hand at the border.

For a hassle-free trip, make sure that you are able to provide the following:

Valid passport not expiring within 6 months.

Confirmed flight tickets — Especially a flight back to your home country or onward destination that you are allowed to enter.

Proof of accommodation— Hotel reservation or letter of invitation from your friend/family residing in Hong Kong.

Evidence that you are able to fund the entire duration of your visit.

Evidence that you are visiting for travel or holiday purposes only. You may show tours/activities that you have pre-booked online.

How to get Hong Kong Dollars?

Hong Kong’s currency is called Hong Kong Dollars (HKD or HK$). You should be able to exchange your USD, EUR, GBP & major currencies easily at most money exchange stalls. Don’t exchange a lot at the airport. Branches found in the city usually offer better rates.

Philippine Pesos (PHP) to Hong Kong Dollars — PHP is widely accepted at currency exchange stalls in Hong Kong because of the large number of OFWs. As mentioned, exchange most of your money at the city center, not at the airport. Better yet, save time on your actual trip by exchanging your pesos to Hong Kong dollars before you leave.

ATMs — I use my ATM card a lot when I travel. It’s way more convenient than to worry about bringing and exchanging cash. Because banks charge a fee (usually USD 5 or more) per withdrawal, I make sure to withdraw large amounts instead of several smaller ones.

Before your trip, it’s important to check if your bank requires you to activate your card for international withdrawal. Your card might be useless otherwise. I use a Bank of the Philippine Islands ATM card (Cirrus) and I have to call their 24-hour hotline to activate my card when I travel abroad. On the other hand, My Unionbank debit cards (Visa and Mastercard) does not need activation for international withdrawals.

How to get around Hong Kong?

If you want to travel on a budget, the MTR trains, buses, and trams are the way to go in Hong Kong. The city boasts of having one of the World’s safest, most efficient and frequent public transport systems. Get an Octopus Card for discount fares and easy payments.

Useful travel apps

Google Maps —This travel app will make it a lot easier to get around on your own. Download the offline maps before you go so you can check the map even if you don’t have mobile data. Internet access is still important because the directions feature only works if you are online.

Maps.me — Excellent offline maps & Google Maps alternative.

Uber — Reliable ride-sharing app.

XE Currency — Free & easy currency converter.

Google Translate — Very useful to communicate with locals who do not understand/speak English.

Agoda & Booking.com — My go-to for convenient hotel bookings & cheap room rates. To display the total price (including taxes & fees) on Agoda, click here to download the app. Tap the menu on the top left corner of the screen. Scroll down and tap on “Price display”. Then, select “Total stay”.

Airbnb — Home/apartment rentals.

Momondo & Skyscanner — Top flight search & price comparison apps.

TripAdvisor — Reviews on the best places to eat & where to stay. Download the app on your iOS or Android device.

Where to get Pocket WiFi or buy a mobile data SIM card?

Stay connected online during your whole trip. Not only does it make it possible to share your travel moments instantly, you can also travel better by having access to all your favorite travel apps anytime. If you can’t get a good roaming data plan from your current provider, pre-book a local/roaming SIM card online.

Where to book tours & attraction tickets?

Go to Klook for easy, fast, and convenient bookings. I often book online to enjoy discount rates and reliable tours. Click below to see today’s lowest prices.

See discounts

Here are some of the top reasons why I like to book tours online & why you should consider it too:

Maximize your trip & avoid wasting time walking around town shopping for tours.

Get a good idea what to expect. Knowing all the inclusions/non-inclusions & reading user reviews is very helpful to make an informed decision.

Grab bargain prices often cheaper than booking on-site.

Free cancellation (check if available).

Pay in your home currency. Worry less about bringing cash/exchanging currencies. Convenient & secure payment by credit card or Paypal.

If you’ve already finalized your travel dates, it’s important to book well before the trip. For join-in & private tours, Klook closes the booking period 1-3 days before the tour date. Also, the number of participants is limited on each tour & day. So, reserve early, especially if you are traveling with a group to lock-in those open slots for your group.
