Guide Review - Symphony of Lights Harbor Cruise

The Symphony of Lights is a fifteen minute laser and sound show that sees Hong Kong’s skyscrapers flash and dazzle like glitter balls. Most people crowd the Kowloon waterfront to take in the show, and depending on the time of year and the weather, the waterfront can be packed.

The daily Symphony of Lights Cruise, onboard the wonderfully named ‘Shining Star’, gives you the best view of the show possible as well as unlimited drinks. The cruise lasts nintey minutes, allowing you an up-close-and-personal view of the city, followed by the world’s biggest laser and sound show.
