A cheap and convienient experience to tour Hong Kong harbour. While the ferry doesn't travel very quickly, it does at least give passengers ample opportunities to enjoy the panaramic views of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. The Kowloon docking point was conviently located to several attractions, including the Harbourside shopping mall with plenty of shops and restaurants to dine at. Highly recommended for all visitors.

Great short trip across harbor from Hong Kong to Kowloon. I took it in the evening where a cool breeze was very refreshing. Beautiful night lights of both Hong Kong and Kowloon makes trip truly enjoyable.

You have to do this at least once when visiting Hong Kong. It's historic. It's quick. It's inexpensive. It's a great way to see the harbor, rather than taking the MTR underground. You won't regret it. Plus-you can use your Octopus card.

My hotel being less than a 10-minute walk from the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade and the Star Ferry, i walked down here, after checking into my room. Nothing much seemed to have changed since my last visit here in February 2020 which to me is a good thing. This is really a stroll down memory lane✌✌✌

Such a great way to get across the harbour. Cheap ($5 or $6.50 HKD) and quick (approx 8 minutes). Be at pier 10 minutes at least before ferry leaves and line up as ferry leaves early if full. Great way to experience Hong Kong harbour.

We used the Star Ferry several times while vacationing in Hong Kong. We were staying in Tsim Sha Tsui so used the ferry to cross to Central. The service was easy and cheap to use. The token system is simple but once we had our Octopus cards it was even easier. The trip isn't long and it sails regularly so you don't feel pressured for time. The staff were efficient and helpful if you need assistance.

Very efficient loading people off and on. Catch a ferry to cross the harbour and enjoy the skyline after dark. Equally good during the day. Use your Octopus card for all public transport in Hong Kong.

Our family of two adults, a 9 year old and a 6 year old visited Hong Kong during the busy Chinese New Year holidays and enjoyed a few rides on the Star Ferry. This is not to be missed for some of the best views of the HK skyscrapers as well as a cheap mode of transport between Kowloon and HK island. After passing through the barriers, look up at the 'traffic lights' to determine which side the next ferry will depart from (red light means wait at barrier, green light means boarding, no lights on means the boat is not leaving/arriving on that side). Once on board, make sure you pick the correct side of the boat for the views. The back rest of the seats swing both ways so move the back rest according to which direction you're travelling in. On Kowloon side, don't miss the clock tower at the Star Ferry terminal which is one of the oldest and original structures in HK. On HK island side, from the Star Ferry pier at Central, follow the footpath bridge / walkway to get to the main shopping district or to get to the road level where you can pick up the trams to Causeway Bay. You can also get the ferry to/from the Wan Chai ferry terminal if you're headed that way. Enjoy!

I lived in HK 30 years ago and have been back at least 20 times since. I always make a point of riding the Star Ferry. You can't beat it. Best view in the world for a negligible amount of money. Take your iconic pictures from your seat as you move between HK and T.S.T

We took the ferry one way for the views rather than going via MTR. It's very good value, I can't remember how much but much less than £1.00. £0.40 or something like that. The view of the skyline is super. HK is one of the most interesting places I have visited. Absolutely super.
