Rickshaw Sightseeing Buses - H1
Rickshaw Sightseeing Bus is one of the brands under the New World First Bus. There are totally 2 richshaw sightseeing bus routes - H1 and H2 which were both introduced on 18th October 2009. Route H1, the Heritage Route and Route H2, the Metropolis Route both shared their bus terminus in Central Star Ferry, while Route H1 via Hollywood Road, Sun Yat Sin Memorial Hall, Hong Kong University and the other route H2 via HKECE, Causeway Bay, Queen's Road East (Hennessy Road for night section) and St. John's Cathedral etc. NWFB specially redesigned 5 Volvo Olympian 11ms (VA51-55) as open-top buses (these 5 buses have also started running 82M in the morning session since 23/8/2010). The bus fare for single direction of these two routes is $8.7 while the one-day pass costs $50. Route H2A was introduced to celebrate the countdown activity which was held in the Times Square in Causeway Bay on the New Year's Eve in the previous two consecutive years, while the entire batch of Rickshaw Sightseeing Buses became its bus fleet.
Since the outbreak of Occupy Central movement in Admiralty and Causeway Bay in late September 2014, services of routes H1 and H2 were suspended on account of road blockade in the above-mentioned districts. Not until December 2014, during which clearance operation was undergone in the Occupy sites, did the Rickshaw Sightseeing Buses service resume. The resumption not only marks the route re-opening after more than two months, but also the most significant re-routeing since the brand's inauguration in 2009. In December 2014, routes H1 and H2 were merged into one route named as H1. The area of coverage was also remarkably expanded to Kowloon district across Jordan and Tsim Sha Tsui. The new H1 currently passes through Hollywood Road and Tamar, Jordan and Tsim Sha Tsui for Kowloon bound, as well as Causeway Bay, Wan Chai and St. John's Cathedral for its return trip. The adjusted single ride ticket charges $33 while the new one-day pass fare is $200.
