If taxi-ing from the mainland to the Island or vice versa you should ask for the route via the Kowloon. Going via the Cross Harbour Tunnel (unless it is closer to your destination) incurs an additional charge for the drivers return.
Taxis with their flags covered with a Hong Kong or Kowloon sign signal that they intend to return to their original district. If you need the destination shown, you could save and only pay a single fare going via the Cross Harbour Tunnel.
Its handy to have your hotel write your destination in Chinese to assist the drivers. Always keep a hotel business card with you as well. Taxi rides start at HK$15.00.
