6 Days in Hong Kong
In March 2024, we headed overseas for the first time since the birth of our baby. Travelling with a 4 month old was a completely new experience, but we still managed to squeeze in 6 days to explore Hong Kong on our way to Japan. Here are our top 10 favourite experiences:
|

|
2. Ferry ride: Board a ferry and take in the city from Victoria Harbour. Cross from the Central Ferry Pier to the Tsim Sha Tsui Pier to explore a different part of the city.
|
|
3. Harbourfront Promenade Hong Kong Island: Spend a lazy afternoon walking from the Maritime Museum to Causeway Bay, taking in the sights along the harbourfront. Join the crowds of people sitting in the park on a sunny day (most people brought a little tent with them to avoid the sun).

|
4. Harbour Promenade Tsim Sha Tsui: Explore the promenade area in Tsim Sha Tsui, including the Avenue of Star, K11 Musea, the Hong Kong Museum of Art and Light Show. Bonus: if you have a baby with you, visit the parent’s room in the K11 Musea for first class facilities. Walk a little further into Tsim Sha Tsui and enjoy Kowloon Park and the shops & restaurants along Nathan Road.
