I had to stop for 8 hours in Hong Kong for layover and I decided to take a tour with my guide Donald. It was a great experience walking in Hong Kong, I will definitely recommend it.

We were met by Bertha Chan at our hotel and did an 8 hour tour. She was extremely knowledgeable and very flexible in her plans to accommodate my wife who had recently broken her toe, so was unable to complete long walks. We covered all the key areas of Hong kong and she planned the itinerary to ensure we missed all the peak queuing times and we used all methods of public transport to minimise walking times. In addition she took us to some amazing local eateries and we sampled all kinds of local cuisine. We felt very immersed in the local culture.

Daniel spent an eventful 8 hours with me on an active weekend. We first hiked the famous Dragons Back circuit which was simply fantastic. Daniel is an active hiker and his knowledge of the trail elevated the experience. We later spent time exploring Hollywood Street and the hidden alleyways in Hong Kong, showcasing amazing street art. Our day concluded with a visit to Kowloon and walking the night market and other highlights. Daniel has my highest recommendation as an expert guide to Hong Kong. He is highly professional, communicates promptly and closely works with his clients to ensure that their expectations are exceeded.

Fabulous tour with Bertha. Very informative, full of great insights. Started in Kowloon where we traced some of the older neighborhoods of Hong Kong. Took the ferry to Central to visit the prison and explore neighborhoods on the island. A great introduction to Hong Kong.
