Planning a trip to Hong Kong
Pulled from the 2 routes below — so it says what these itineraries actually do, not what a brochure would.
When to go
Oct–Dec — the months these routes agree on.
How long you need
3–6 days. The shortest is Hong Kong in 3 days: the Peak, Kowloon and Lantau; the longest is Hong Kong in 6 days: the classic, plus Macau.
What it costs
≈ AED 450 to ≈ AED 600 per person per day, depending on the route. Beds, food, getting around and things to do — costed line by line in each guide, not estimated from a daily rate.
Entry on an Indian passport
Travel authorisation online first, 14 days. Pre-arrival registration is free but must be done online before you fly. Checked 2026-11 against Wikipedia’s compilation of IATA Timatic entries. Entry rules depend on your passport and where you live, and they change with little notice — confirm with the embassy or your airline before you book. Check another country.
Where these routes go: Hong Kong · Lantau · Macau.

3 days
Best for: Three days where the best views cost almost nothing
Hong Kong in 3 days: the Peak, Kowloon and Lantau
Central and the Peak → Kowloon and the harbour → Lantau and the Big Buddha
The Star Ferry, the Peak tram, and the mid-levels escalator — the cheapest transport in the city is also the sightseeing. Plus which side of the harbour to watch the light show from, and the Lantau day that needs booking.
-
6 days
Best for: City + skyline
Hong Kong in 6 days: the classic, plus Macau
Hong Kong → Lantau → Macau
The most vertical city on Earth, entered on a free online form: the Peak at golden hour, a bronze Buddha above the clouds, dim sum economics, one Disney day and a day trip to Macau over the world's longest sea bridge — with the PAR registration, Octopus card and typhoon calendar decoded.
