Submitted by maria on Thu, 09/06/2016 - 18:58

After the two-hour stopover in Dubai and again an eight-hour drive we arrived in Hong Kong.

We left the airport (Chep Lap Kok) on the island of Lantau 45 kms from the city centre, the temperature contrast is brutal almost 90 percent humidity and over 30 degrees.

There are several options to get from the airport to the center of Hong Kong (bus, taxi, subway) we opted for the bus (the subway was not operational), in less than an hour we arrived, the pity is that the maps.me does not work, the gps signal does not arrive. Nevertheless we go to our friend's house and with his instructions we find it immediately.

Finally we arrived after two days of intense travel.


Bus: to be able to travel on the bus it is necessary to buy a card that you can buy at the airport itself, the drivers do not sell tickets.

Plane ticket Madrid to Hong Kong: 501 euros round trip per pax.
