Episode 144: Our Hong Kong Adventure – Trams, Ferries, and Disneyland Magic

It’s been 20 years since Scott last visited Hong Kong, and in this episode, we’re heading back together for a short visit packed with big experiences. From the unforgettable view of Victoria Harbour to the nostalgic sound of the ding ding trams, we’re sharing our whole plan for exploring the city, including a DIY transportation tour and a day at Hong Kong Disneyland (Melissa’s 4th Disney park!). Whether you’re planning a stopover in Hong Kong or just dreaming of your next international adventure, come along as we show you how to experience the best of the city in just a couple of days.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • Why we chose to stop in Hong Kong on our way home from Asia

  • The reason Scott’s been dreaming of taking Melissa on this transportation tour for 20 years

  • Where we'll stay and why the location made all the difference

  • How we planned to experience Hong Kong’s best transportation in one night:

    • MTR

    • Star Ferry

    • Peak Tram

    • Ding Ding double-decker trams

    • City bus

    • SoHo’s outdoor escalator

    • Melissa’s excitement about visiting Hong Kong Disneyland

    • Unique attractions we can’t wait to see

    • Local eats we’re hoping to try, from Michelin-starred roasted goose to Hong Kong milk tea

    • Why Scott expects this visit to feel both nostalgic and completely new
