Big Bus Hong Kong: Open-Top Night & Highlights Combo

Glide across two iconic routes on an open-top double-decker — past the neon-lit temples of Wan Chai, the waterfront of Kowloon, and up through Victoria Peak Road — with hop-on, hop-off freedom and a live commentary.

What to expect

The red double-deckers cover both Hong Kong Island and Kowloon on colour-coded routes, with 24 stops including the Star Ferry, Man Mo Temple, the Peak, and the Temple Street Night Market. Live English commentary brings context to every neighbourhood. The optional harbour junk cruise can be added for a water-level contrast. The night route (departs ~18:00) transforms the city into a neon dreamscape viewed from above — one of the most photogenic ways to experience Hong Kong after dark.

Good to know

Tickets bought online (bigbustours.com) save ~15% vs. at the kiosk. The nearest stop to the Ocean Terminal cruise port is Tsim Sha Tsui (Star Ferry), a 5-min walk. Day tours start ~09:00; night tours ~18:00. A 1-day pass covers both; ideal if your ship has an evening departure. Download the Big Bus app for live bus tracking and stop audio guides.
