Taxi provides 24-hour service and it doesn't accept Octopus card.
If your ride involves going through tunnel, return trip tunnel fee shall
be paid by you.
There is exception if you are crossing the harbour. If you catch a taxi
from a special harbour-crossing taxi stop, you pay only one-way tunnel fee
because other passengers have paid one-way for the driver to come to this
side of the island already.
There will be extra charges for large luggage.
Taxi drivers often round up the fare to the next dollar so it's up to you
tip extra. City taxi is red and New Territories taxi is blue.
They normally restrict to their own island/district so if you are in New
Territories and want a taxi to Kowloon or Hong Kon island, the driver may
suggest to take you to somewhere near the city and you have to change to a
red taxi.
