Any idea the taxi fare from airport to shamrock (Jordan area)?

This website says about HK$220. But I remembered it was more than that.

taxi fare is always subject to traffic condition

even a HJ$18 fare can turn out to be HK$30

Cadencemummy,

Travelling by taxi frm Airport to Shamrock Hotel is around HK360-380. I’ve been staying in this Hotel 3x & always take a taxi frm the airport to the Hotel.
You’ll be staying in Shamrock? When’re you going?

Ya lor, what a joke. Dunno how and when they came up with that misleading fare. Probably that taxi was the only car on the roads lah. :siam:

Good to check the weather forecast.

We went in late nov/ early dec last year. It was not that cold. Just a light jacket works unless you are going to the peak at night. It was freezing with the wind.That was like the coolest place. Otherwise it was just normal clothing for us.

Hi all,

Sorry me not sure how to reply using my old thread. The reason is because my mum (elderly) and my girl abt 3YO is travelling together with me and my sister.
So total 3adult n 1 child.

Initially wanna take train, but seem that we gotta pull our laggage and look after my girl, maybe easier t tk cab. Seem like taxi is really ex right. Maybe look for private transportor…they charge cheaper?
