View from The Peak in Hong Kong

The Peak is often dubbed Hong Kong’s must-see attraction.

Even reaching The Peak is an experience in itself. The journey takes approximately six minutes, rises from 33m to 396m above sea level along a 1,278m-long track and is a visually memorable experience as skyscrapers glide past at what appear to be impossible angles.

The Peak Tram commenced operation in 1888 to serve the British Governor and The Peak’s residents. Today, it is one of the world’s oldest funicular railways and can be enjoyed by everyone, welcoming more than six million patrons a year. Peak Tramways has completed a significant upgrade project, including new tramcars.

When guests disembark the tram, they arrive at the Peak Tower – a wok-shaped structure famous for its viewing platform, Sky Terrace 428, standing 428m above Hong Kong’s cityscape.

American and Italian cuisine, along with other casual dining outlets, entertainment and Madame Tussauds are located in The Peak Tower.

Opposite the Peak Tower is the Peak Galleria. Its free-entry observation deck is a photogenic hotspot with views of Victoria Harbour and the Pok Fu Lam Reservoir.

Your clients can wander through Mr Monopoly’s secret home and encounter holograms and 4DX technology at MONOPOLY DREAMS™ , create customisable furry friends at Build-A-Bear Workshop and get an immersive experience at Go Museum.

Hiking at The Peak is popular too, with choices including the Peak Circle Walk, Lugard Road Lookout and Lions Point View Pavilion or Victoria Peak Garden and former Mountain Lodge.
