Hong Kong subway is amongst the best I have seen in the world. They are efficient, clean and the next train is always few minutes away. If you are going be there for more than few days, I suggest buying an octopus card, comes in handy not only for subway but also for buying small things from convenience stores.

HK metro is very easy to ride and efficient. Minibuses are also an option but some drivers go little too fast particularly on the outer roads.

just an amazing train system, safe and quick. No need to take the taxis unless you want to get stuck in traffic.

thanks for your information over transportation in hk. I used to live there in the early 90's and hk's transport system is very user friendly. the octopus card seems a good item to start my visit! I,ll be back in a couple of days after 14 years absence. looking forward to see all the new buildings and the old sights, as well.

I haven't been to HK yet. This will help me to walk around HK easily using the public transport system. Thanks!
