Have you ever thought about planning and traveling abroad on your own? Have you ever packed your backpack and set off on a journey to explore the world beyond? With only five days of travel, do you think it’s possible to check in at three different territories? Mytour will guide you through a self-planned 5-day trip to Hong Kong, Macau, and China.
Backpacking in Hong Kong
Are you wondering why Mytour chose Hong Kong over Macau or China? Keep reading to find out the reason.
You can travel to Hong Kong from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, or Da Nang. You can choose to fly to Hong Kong for just 2.8 million VND, including taxes (this is the regular fare, not a discounted price), or opt for a flight to China with an average fare of 5.5 million VND.
This is the first reason why you should choose Hong Kong as the first stop on your journey into the world. According to Hong Kong travel tips, you should spend 2 days and 2 nights in Hong Kong, 1 day in Macau, 1 day in China, and the last day for shopping before heading back to Vietnam. Be sure to take a flight that lands at 5-6 AM, saving a lot of time.
When you arrive in Hong Kong, don’t rush into the city. On your way, stop by the Tsing Ma Bridge for a photo, visit the Aberdeen Harbour, Victoria Peak, and Big Buddha... take your time exploring, but don’t try to visit every single spot because there’s just not enough time. Hong Kong, this paradise, knows how to captivate with hundreds of interesting places. If you want to explore all the spots, you’d need a 7-day, 6-night trip, but you can still enjoy the “check-in in 15 minutes and move on” challenge. Spend your evenings wandering through the mesmerizing shopping centers. Stepping into Hong Kong’s malls, you’ll understand what it means to “get lost in paradise.”
The next day, dedicate an entire day to exploring and having fun at Disneyland Hong Kong.
Traveling from Hong Kong to Macau
Getting from Hong Kong to Macau is very simple. According to the travel tips from seasoned travelers of Hong Kong and Macau, head to the China Ferry Terminal or Shun Tak In Sheung Wan to take a ferry to Macau.
Before heading to Macau, prepare yourself mentally so you don’t fall under its spell. The dazzling, luxurious casinos adorned with gold and diamonds might leave you in awe. Visit Macau for the day and then return to Hong Kong to rest.
Traveling from Hong Kong to China
Time is limited, so we can’t make it to Beijing or Shanghai. Instead, you should opt for a Hong Kong-Guangzhou tour. From Hong Kong, you can easily take the subway to Guangzhou in just one stop. Once in Guangzhou, make sure to visit the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, Yuexiu Park, Citic Plaza, and Lotus Hill... Don’t forget to explore and shop at the famous markets here.
You can return to Hong Kong for the night and head back to Vietnam the next day. Choose Hong Kong as the starting point for your journey because from here, you can easily visit China and Macau, stay in one place, travel with modern public transportation, and explore many places. In just 5 days, your passport will get 5 new red stamps, taking you to spots that feel like a paradise on Earth. So why wait? Pack your bag and embark on the Hong Kong tour in August now!
