From various travel guides, I have gathered that the following
buses can get me to Stanley Market: 6, 6A, 6X, 260, 73
& 973 (did I miss out any others?)
Most of them seem to be terminating/originating at the same
terminals, so
What's the difference between the variations for service 6 &
260?
Which service is the most recommended (fastest route or best views
etc)?
Does any of the services connect Stanley Market with Ocean
Park?
In addition, are there any bus services linking the Tian Tan Buddha
on Lantau Island with Tai O, and between Tai O and Mui Wo? If
there's any, are they as reliable? The plan is to explore Lantau
taking the MTR to Tung Chung, cable car to Ngong Ping, then somehow
make my way to Tai O and Mui Wo, from where I can take a ferry back
to Hong Kong.
Thanks in advance!
6, 6X and 260 are daytime services and ply different routes
towards stanley market/prison from central. 6A is a peak hour
service. Fastest route would definately be 260, and if u are lucky,
can get to try the E400 too.. 6 would give a good view and an
exciting trip especially if u are sitting at the front.
If u are going to Stanley from Ocean park, take 73 and 973 from
ocean park's main entrance (have to walk out to the main road).
Otherwise if u plan to visit stanley first (which i dont recommand
coz its nice to spend a full day at ocean park) then u can only
take 73 from stanley as 973 would charge u cross harbour fares.
