4.00We asked the guide to change the itinerary he had planned as we were doing many of the things the following day. Instead the tour focused on Kowloon, which didn’t have a lot of interest. Dennis, our guide, was lovely and included food tastings in our tour. That was probably the best part. I’d recommend you give Dennis a go but stick to his original plan or turn it into a food tour.

5.00Karen was a great guide for 6 1/2 hour toir of Hong Kong after getting off our cruise ship at 9:00 AM. She was born and raised in Hong King and gave a good summary of it’s history and current situation. We saw many sites on Hong Kong Island and she gave good suggestions for future sightseeing activities on our own.
Perfect way to spend a day in Hong Kong

5.00We had the loveliest day with Robert. We traveled all over the city, took a variety of forms of transportation, sampled local treats/dim sum, and experienced far more of Hong Kong than we ever would have on our own. The day was a perfect blend of history, cultural influences, cityscapes, temple visits, and walking the local streets with an expert. Robert had stories, pictures, and explanations throughout the tour. Most importantly, we felt and were impressed by how much he loved the city, and the tour seemed to be a great way to show what a great place it is. I highly recommend him.
There is so much more to see in Hong Kong than I thought!

5.00I've been lucky enough to visit Hong Kong at least 5 times before this, and I was super surprised that our tour guide, Karen, took my family and me through streets I'd never seen! Karen knew so much about Hong Kong's past and present, and I got to see some familiar spots and new ones! Karen listened to everything we wanted to do and made it all happen in the 6 hours we had with her. She was so friendly right from the start, which made us feel totally comfortable. I highly recommend Karen; she'll definitely show you the best of Hong Kong.
Great immersive walking tour

5.00We had an excellent walking tour in Hong Kong with our 7-year-old. Our guide, Dennis, was knowledgeable, patient, and engaging, making the experience enjoyable for both adults and a child. We felt truly immersed in the city, its culture, and everyday life, with thoughtful insights along the way. The pace was perfect, and the tour was very well organised. Highly recommended for families wanting an authentic Hong Kong experience.

5.00Karen was an excellent guide, we crammed loads into 6 hours, using ferry, tram and MRT. We learned loads about life in Hong Kong and went to places we never would have found on our own.
