The main star ferry rides go from Central or Wan Chai to Tsim Sha Tsui. Fares are extraordinarily cheap, and is the cheapest way to get across the harbour.

What you get is a short (long relative to the other methods) ride across the harbour, with plenty of photo opportunities. Gets you right in with the local life as well as the old days, when ...

words can't quite express how i felt when i was at Star Ferry. Awe, excited, transferred to another world ???

as soon as i arrived at hk, i went to star ferry. As i watched the sea surface & the buildings on the Central side, i was stunned. It's like being transferred to another world.

I still often think about star ferry, when i can go back there.

hk is a must visit city & star ferry is a must see place.

It's a very relaxing atmosphere to hear the waves. lots of people. don't eat around there though...big rip-offs at every corner. And the ships are nose-to-nose with you....very nice.

I was in Hong Kong for two days on business. I clawed out one free hour, and spent in on the Star Ferry. I felt at peace with myself and why I came to China. Didn't do much on the Kowloon side - bought some pieces of jade souvenirs and David Beckham choccies - but I didn't have to do much, because the trip itself was worth it.

Every ...

I took the star ferry once and it was cool. I took it during the day, but it would have been cooler at night.

To go to Hongkong and not go on the star ferry is like going to New York and opting not to see the Statue of liberty.
