What you’ll do

Hong Kong is breathtaking - from the hustle and bustle of the people to the lights sparkling 24/7. We love going to Hong Kong; it's like a natural energy boost. So get ready for an unforgettable Hong Kong adventure that mixes ancient traditions with cutting-edge cool, all led by a local host who knows all the hidden gems and our favorite spots to explore!

First up, step into the enchanting world of Man Mo Temple, a sacred space dedicated to the gods of literature and martial arts. This mid-19th-century marvel boasts a green tiled roof, ornate wood carvings, and vibrant red lacquered doors. Breathe in the unique scent of the giant hanging incense coils and offerings from devotees seeking divine blessings. Just outside, Hollywood Road awaits with its treasure trove of antique shops and art galleries – perfect for picking up quirky souvenirs and soaking in some local art vibes. 

A short stroll away is PMQ, a trendy creative hub bursting with design studios, chic shops, and delightful restaurants. It's the ultimate spot to chill and dive into innovative local designs.

Next, head to the Western Market, where a colorful mix of shops offers everything from traditional Chinese fabrics to handmade crafts. The textiles here are a feast for the eyes, showcasing Hong Kong's rich cultural tapestry. Don't miss the market's striking red brick facade and elegant granite archways, rare gems of Edwardian architecture in the city. Then, jump on the tram for a scenic ride to your next destination, watching the vibrant cityscape zip by.

Arriving at Lin Heung Tea House, you'll be swept into a whirlwind of clattering dishes, lively chatter, and the sing-song calls of dim sum servers. This is Hong Kong's dining culture at its most dynamic! Indulge in an authentic Cantonese feast with dim sum classics like har gow (shrimp dumplings), siu mai (pork dumplings - our absolute favorite here), and lotus leaf rice, all served from traditional push carts. The tea house's charming wooden furniture, communal tables, and nostalgic decor transport you back to old Hong Kong.

Your next stop is Central Market, a historic landmark turned modern cultural hotspot. Originally built in 1939, this buzzing market has been stylishly revamped while keeping its old-school charm. Explore a kaleidoscope of food stalls, quirky shops, and vibrant event spaces. Check out the cool installations that capture Hong Kong's history and grab some tasty local snacks or unique souvenirs.

Finally, meander down Pottinger Street, famously known as Stone Slabs Street. This iconic street's distinctive granite steps have remained unchanged since the mid-19th century, offering a picturesque throwback to old-world Hong Kong. Named after the first Governor of Hong Kong, Henry Pottinger, this lively street is packed with market stalls and shops selling everything from costumes and accessories to traditional Chinese decorations. Immerse yourself in the bustling market life and uncover the street's fascinating stories with your local host by your side.

Throughout this epic day, your local host will ensure that you have a spectacular adventure through Hong Kong's rich history and dynamic culture. Whether you're hunting for hidden gems or eager to see the city's iconic landmarks, this journey promises a thrilling and unforgettable glimpse into the heart of Hong Kong. We can't wait to hear more about it!

Our guide Benny did an amazing job! We were time limited so needed to visit as many attractions as we can and Benny gave us a fantastic tour. Perfect for what we were looking for which was a mix of touristy attractions and local places. He was very informative and provided great context on all the places we visited. Highly recommend!

Dennis was very friendly and welcoming. Our tour was just what we hoped for - an inside look at Hong Kong as presented by a knowledgeable local. Dennis had great insight into the customs and history of the city. He took us to very interesting locations and was able to share with us the significance and meaning of each. Dennis was very personable and within a few minutes of meeting him it felt like we were touring Hong Kong with a lifelong friend.

Even though our tour started a little late (it was the ship's fault!), Karen was a great tour guide and was so flexible and accommodating! She was very knowledgeable and answered our million and one questions. I had made a primary to-see list, as well as a secondary list, and in 6 hours we saw almost everything on the two lists. The only thing we missed was the peak, but it was such a foggy day, we wouldn't have been able to see anything anyway! Karen took us on a ferry, the metro, and one of the funky trams. And, to top it all off, at the end of the tour she took us to a local place where we could sit and eat some dim sum, and made sure we knew how to get back to our ship afterwards! I would highly recommend one of these tours, and ask for Karen!
