Star Ferry

This is a must on everyone’s to do list!!! It started back in 1888, it is still a favorite of many in HK. The ferry is actually relatively cheap compared to other transportations in HK. Some even use this as their main form of commute to work daily. If you are on the central side you could even check out the AIA Observation Wheel or the Hong Kong Maritime Museum. We often use the ferry to get from TST to Central vice versa.
