  Some of the engine parts and bus models are the same , but ComfortDelgro has recently been buying spare parts and assembling them in Singapore instead, so there are differences in the body type of the bus...
  
  Hong Kong buses also have more comfortable seats.... and their buses are less crowded than Singapore's..... The frequency of their buses is also better than those in Singapore.... 
  
  104 is a nice route... You can take it from Hong Kong Island.... and it will cross the Harbour Tunnel and eventually reach Kowloon Island... Mongkok area.... =)  This service is one of the more crowded and you may have to stand during peak hours...

  Causeway Bay, Times Square (Hong Kong Island)

  

   Inside Times Square.

  Nice to take.. but take during off peak hours... its a bit cramped... and because its so cheap... many chose to take it... so its a bit like Singapore's rush hour where it is more packed....
  
  Boarding is from the back... at a fixed price of HKD 2.50 (SGD$0.45) per trip....

• Just_do_it_lah

  29 Jul 10, 21:28

  yeah.. took a few times only... short trip..

  mainly from Wai Chai to Causeway Point (few stops) haha.

  hahaha... i am tempted to go again and again... all the time i went solo (alone).. my brother stays (@Sai Wan Ho) and work there (at Central), hence accomodation is free... so, only air tickets + makan.. (but when i wait for my brother for dinner... dinner is free for me too... ).
