Ride the Peak Tram in Hong Kong

“I see lots of reviews saying to buy tickets online, buy in advance, don't go on the weekend, and avoid the long lines. We arrived at 9:40am on a Sunday, waited a minute in line, bought our tickets with a credit card in person, and walked right through the turnstile with no issues. When we boarded the tram, an aggressive woman tried pushing her way past me, and her attack was repulsed. Otherwise, the ride up the mountain was glorious, and a must do for visitors to this beautiful city. There are so many intricate views between buildings built into the mountainside. And it's wild to realize the pitch of your journey, as you are only halfway vertical, while the parking garage alongside you is fully horizontal. The views up at the peak are worth your wait and your tram fee.”

“Obviously all was forgotten once we finally reached the queue and were allowed to board the tram car. We were perched into the carriage and luckily got a space next to the windows, albeit to the wrong side (try to get a spot on the right for the best views), without any chance of good views going up the hill. The tram slowly ascended to the top and despite the crush everybody seemed excited when we exited at the other end.”
