Things to do in Hong Kong, China: The Best Transportation
Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Iconic trip from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island and back, 2.6 HKD, much more fun than the Metro, great view both ways, remember to take the elevated walkway on Hong Kong Island side for the best photo opportunities.
2. MTR

Getting around Hong Kong couldn't be easier than with MTR. As MTR lines cover all major districts, it is quick and convenient to explore the whole city. There are nine commuter rail lines with easy interchange as well as a Light Rail network and high-speed Airport Express service. In addition, cross-boundary train service is provided to cities in the Mainland of China. Enjoy your Hong Kong journeys with MTR, operated by the MTR Corporation, one of the world's leading railway operators for safety, reliability and customer service.

Thankfully we had read up on the MTR before visiting and bought a card preloaded with $150 at the airport when we landed - total price $200 as they take a deposit for the card which is refundable when you leave together with the balance. The trains run frequently and google helpfully tells you the most efficient route from A to B so with journeys costing $6 or $10 a time it is a really quick and easy way to explore different parts of Hong Kong. The only challenge we faced was trying to select the correct exit - similar to the London Underground there are numerous exits and sometimes they’re not very well signposted

A comfortable return trip to Mui Wo from Central on the ordinary (slow) ferry. We travelled deluxe class, which offers airconditioned comfort away from the crowds. Well worth the extra few dollars to upgrade the seats from those downstairs.
