  • Prefer the clear sky day.
  • Winter is the best (this is my personal opinion)
  • The night view is terrific. You can see a full panoramic view of Hong Kong, Kowloon, NT, and unique capture of Victoria Harbour and the promenade.
  • Travel by peak tram if you are a first-time visitor; it will be a unique experience.
  • I prefer to visit on weekdays, so it is less crowded.
  • Many fast-food and other restaurants, so no need to take the food yourself.

Going peak from the city, has many other options, like a taxi, bus, or car, however, riding the peak tram has a different experience than going to another mode of transport. I prefer travelers to ride peak trams.
