First of all, before going to Hong Kong, you must make sure some places where you want to go and search the route of these places. And you have to reserve the hotel and know how to get the hotel.
Secondly, you have to know the metro’s trunk lines in Hong Kong. It is convenient for you to take the metro to get to somewhere.
Thirdly, you must budget that how much money will you cost. And then exchange some HK dollars in the bank of your local city, before going to Hong Kong. Because Hong Kong local rate in foreign money is higher.
