All aboard as HK launches bus restaurant

HONG Kong’s first sightseeing restaurant bus went into service yesterday, offering tourists and locals a fresh experience of sightseeing and dining.

“(For tourists,) there is now no need to plan where to go or worry about where to eat, sparing time for shopping,” Thomas Hung, chairman of the operator Crystal Bus Holding Limited, said at a launching ceremony on Tuesday.

Hung said Crystal Bus “combines concepts of tourism and catering, allowing tourists to enjoy local cuisine while experiencing Hong Kong’s most representative attractions.”

The sightseeing restaurant bus is a 47-seat double-decker furnished with wonderful lighting and sound systems. It tours around the city while serving food prepared by locally famous and Michelin starred restaurants.

Its service comprises day and night tours, with day tour covering over 20 attractions from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island or to the New Territories.

The two-and-a-half-hour day tour costs 380 HongKong dollars (US$450) each. Night tours are only for booking the entire bus and guests can choose their own route. Prices range up to 12,800 Hong Kong dollars.
