Red Bus Or Green Bus

One of the cheapest means of transportation around Hong Kong is the public light bus. It seats 16 people and is very convenient as long as you know your destination and possible stops in between. There are actually two kinds of public light buses. One is colored red and the other green. I didn’t know the difference between the two until I came here.

The red bus will take you from point A to point B using what the bus driver feels is the fastest method. That means detours through areas you may not be familiar with. It’s good if you don’t plan on getting off in any in between spots.

The green bus will always stick to the same route from point A to point B. That way you’ll always recognize what you pass, but it may not be the fastest method especially with traffic.
