Step aboard Dukling, the only authentic Chinese junk boat still regularly operating in Hong Kong. Built in 1955, Dukling was a fishing boat, home to hardworking fishermen. In the 80s, it was transformed into a sightseeing cruise. Its original form is preserved despite once having sunk in 2014.
Sailing through changing tides, Dukling has witnessed Hong Kong’s transformation from a fishing harbor to a modern metropolis. Representing the stories of hardworking fishermen, Dukling is an important symbol of Hong Kong's cultural legacy.
Today, Dukling offers unique boat tours in the Victoria Harbour. Embark on a voyage through time on board by learning about the history of Dukling, the fishermen culture and the history of Hong Kong from the commentatory. Feel the breeze and enjoy the stunning views as the oldest Chinese junk cruises along both sides of the modern harbour.
If you are looking for something more than just sightseeing, this is the right boat tour for you.

Very enjoyable cruise around Victoria Harbor. Whole trip lasted 60 minutes. Try to schedule after dark to see the light show in the harbor.

Did this with a friend from Hong Kong…it was an actual converted boat! She’d never done it. Was a great way to see the harbor.

Directions to boat are not accurate. We left early to give plenty of time. We never found the Starbucks/pizza place mentioned. We finally got accurate instructions from Aqualuna tour. We still missed the boat.
