"When in Hong Kong, do as the Hong Kongers do. The Star Ferry is a considerable part of the culture and an essential part of life to many.
Each day the Star Ferry carries over 70,000 passengers, which is over 26,000,000 per year. It has been rated first in the “Top 10 Most Exciting Ferry Rides, and National Geographic has named it one of the “fifty places of a lifetime.” With these praises, it makes tourists ask what could be so great about a ferry ride.
It’s simple - simply beautiful. Passengers have beautiful views of Victoria Harbour and Kowloon where there is a range of skyskrapers and jungle landscapes.
The Star Ferry is also a piece of history where passengers can experience a time where the ferry was the only way to travel between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula.
For many, the ferry is a moment-long vacation where they can sip coffee, soak up the sun, and enjoy the breeze off the sea.
If any visitor finds themselves in Hong Kong, they must consider a ride on the Star Ferry."
