Top 10 Experiences, Photo Spots, Food and Tips for Filipinos

Want to meet your favorite celebrities without actually meeting them? 😄 Madame Tussauds Hong Kong is the place to go!

Located inside The Peak Tower, Madame Tussauds Hong Kong features more than 100 wax figures across 12 themed zones, including Hollywood stars, K-pop celebrities, musicians, athletes, fashion icons and Hong Kong personalities.

And here's something special for Filipino travelers: Kathryn Bernardo's wax figure was officially unveiled in 2026, making the attraction even more exciting for Pinoy visitors.

You can comfortably visit Madame Tussauds in around 1.5 hours, but I recommend combining it with Peak Tram and Sky Terrace 428 to make the most of your trip to The Peak.

⭐ Top 10 Experiences You Must Try

1. Meet Kathryn Bernardo 🇵🇭

For Filipinos, this should be at the top of your list!

Take a photo with the wax figure of Kathryn Bernardo, one of the Philippines' biggest stars. Her figure was officially launched in 2026, giving Filipino visitors another reason to visit Madame Tussauds Hong Kong.

2. Visit the K-Wave Zone 🇰🇷

K-pop and Korean drama fans will love this section.

Get your cameras ready and pose with some of the Korean stars featured in the attraction. Madame Tussauds regularly updates its collection, so check the latest figure lineup before your visit.

3. Step Onto the Red Carpet

Pretend you're attending a celebrity event and make your grand entrance!

The interactive setup makes it easy to take fun photos and videos, especially if you're traveling with friends.

4. Meet the Hollywood Stars

Get up close with famous Hollywood personalities and recreate your own celebrity moment.

This is one of the best sections for fun group photos because you can actually stand beside the wax figures and pose with them.

5. Explore the Music Icons

Music lovers can get close to some of the world's biggest musical stars.

Don't just take a normal photo. Recreate a famous pose, pretend you're performing on stage or make a funny video with the figures.

6. Visit the Fashion Zone

If you love fashion, this area is perfect for photos.

Pose alongside fashion icons and enjoy the glamorous atmosphere while you're inside the attraction.

7. Meet Hong Kong Icons

Madame Tussauds isn't only about international celebrities.

You'll also find personalities connected to Hong Kong and Asia, making this section especially interesting if you want to learn more about local entertainment and culture.

8. Try the Interactive Experiences

One of the fun things about Madame Tussauds is that you're allowed to get up close and interact with the wax figures. Cameras are also allowed throughout the attraction.

So don't be shy. Touch, pose and take plenty of photos!

9. Try the VR Thrill Coaster

Want something beyond wax figures?

Madame Tussauds currently offers a VR Thrill Coaster experience that can be purchased as an add-on to admission.

This is a good option if you're looking for a little extra excitement during your visit.

10. Explore The Peak After Your Visit

Don't immediately go back down after Madame Tussauds.

You're already at The Peak, so combine your visit with Sky Terrace 428, Peak Tram, The Peak Tower and the surrounding viewpoints.

You can easily turn a 1.5-hour museum visit into a half-day experience at The Peak.

🍜 Restaurants and Cafés You Should Try

Madame Tussauds itself doesn't allow outside food and drinks, although drinks are available at the exit.

The good news is that you're inside The Peak Tower, where you'll find plenty of restaurants and cafés.

Madame Tussauds Hong Kong

This is your main attraction and is located at Shop P101, The Peak Tower. It is convenient to combine your visit with the other Peak attractions.

The Peak Lookout

A good option if you want a more relaxed meal in the Peak area.

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. Restaurant & Bar

Located inside The Peak Tower, this is a fun choice for seafood and a casual meal with family or friends.

Bakehouse at The Peak Tower

If you just want coffee, pastries or a quick snack, this is a convenient option before or after your Madame Tussauds visit.

Mak's Noodle at The Peak Galleria

If you're craving Hong Kong-style noodles, this is another convenient option nearby.

My tip: Don't spend too much time eating if you also want to visit Sky Terrace 428 around sunset. Eat before or after your main viewing time so you don't miss the skyline.

💡 Madame Tussauds Hong Kong Tips and Tricks

1. Buy your ticket online

Booking online in advance can help you save time and secure your admission date. The official site currently promotes online booking with direct e-ticket entry.

2. Consider a combo ticket

If you're already planning to visit The Peak, look at the Madame Tussauds + Peak Tram or Madame Tussauds + Peak Tram + Sky Terrace 428 combinations.

The official site currently offers a 3-in-1 combination ticket.

3. Plan for around 1.5 hours

The attraction itself normally takes about 90 minutes.

Add more time if you're taking lots of photos and videos.

4. Go before or after Sky Terrace

A great itinerary is:

Peak Tram → Madame Tussauds → The Peak Tower → Sky Terrace 428 → sunset → night view

This allows you to combine several attractions in one trip.

5. Bring your camera

Photography is allowed throughout Madame Tussauds, so don't worry about taking lots of photos.

6. Don't rush through the zones

Take time to look at the details of the figures and displays. Some of the most fun comes from creating your own poses rather than simply walking past each celebrity.

7. Check the celebrity lineup before visiting

Wax figures can change, and new celebrities are added from time to time. The attraction currently highlights figures and updates including Kathryn Bernardo, Jung Hae In, Luo Yunxi, Hua Chenyu and a 2026 Lee Junho figure in production.

8. Use the Peak Tram if it's your first visit

The Peak Tram is one of Hong Kong's classic experiences and takes you directly toward The Peak Tower, where Madame Tussauds is located.

9. Don't bring food inside

Outside food and drinks are not allowed inside Madame Tussauds.

10. Check the weather

Because Madame Tussauds is part of a Peak itinerary, weather can affect the overall experience, particularly your skyline views and Peak Tram journey. The attraction notes that opening times may be suspended or delayed during inclement weather.

🇵🇭 Is Madame Tussauds Hong Kong Worth Visiting?

Yes, especially for Filipino travelers who love celebrities, K-pop, movies and taking photos.

And with Kathryn Bernardo now part of the attraction, Pinoys have an extra reason to visit.

However, I wouldn't recommend visiting Madame Tussauds as a standalone trip if you're short on time. The better strategy is to combine it with the other attractions at The Peak.

My recommended itinerary:

Central → Peak Tram → Madame Tussauds → explore The Peak Tower → Sky Terrace 428 → sunset → Hong Kong night view → dinner → back to Central

This way, you're not just visiting a wax museum. You're getting a complete The Peak experience in one trip.

*Opening hours, celebrity lineups, ticket prices, special experiences and attraction operations can change, so check the official Madame Tussauds Hong Kong website before your visit. Current listed hours are 10:30 AM to 9:30 PM, with last admission at 8:30 PM. *
