What To Expect
Central District
The meaning of Hong Kong is a fragrant harbor, but why does this international city have such a name? Located in the most remote corner of southern China, why was it chosen by Britain for occupation and colonial establishment? I will use an engaging approach to tell you the legendary story of how Hong Kong evolved from a small fishing village into a global metropolis.
HSBC Main Building
Finance and banking are one of the three economic pillars of Hong Kong, so the city is filled with many interesting stories related to economics. Why are all of Hong Kong's banknotes issued by private banks? How many different designs are there for Hong Kong's banknotes? Why is the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar pegged?

5.00We had a wonderful day with Kiyo showing us the sites of Hong Kong. The best part of the tour was the Peak Tram and scenic views at the top of the mountain. Kiyo was very knowledgeable on the history of Hong Kong which made the tour more meaningful for us. Would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys walking and exploring!

5.00We were in HK for 2 full days & did this 8-hour walking tour with Kiyo, which turned out to be the very best way we could have spent 1 day. Kiyo is very knowledgeable about its history, society, culture, banking, and politics. He helped point out the significance of architecture, which is fundamental to HK. We toured a broad area of the city and also went to Kowloon. Kiyo is very enthusiastic about HK and gave a rich tour. He met us at our hotel and returned us there. This is the first time we have booked a personal tour, and it was great. We wish him the best!

5.00Kiyo was a wonderful guide who tailored our tour to take in the places tourists don't normally go.He was superb had wonderful local knowledge and was very in formative on each place we visited at a pace we could manage.He clearly knew Hong Kong well and impressed us with historical and and his passion to communicate how wonderful his home was in Hong Kong. We were very fortunate to have had him as a guide.We visited an old village area and experienced Milky Tea and French toast.Not sure what to make of either. His 4 hour tour overran by an hour and a half because of his enthusiasm Punctual and polite he was a great guide.

5.00This was an amazing tour and our TBL guide Kiyo was outstanding! Kiyo’s tour of Hong Kong goes way beyond the typical tourist sights. We did those but he also showed us Hong Kong life. We saw neighborhoods and housing and learned about religion and family life. Kiyo also treated us to some local snacks and food. This was a really fun in depth tour of Hong Kong and its life and people. Plus Kiyo was such a fun guy to be with. In minutes he felt more like a friend than a guide. Take this tour with Kiyo if you want to really experience Hong Kong with a local who knows how to show what it’s all about!
Best day ever in HK. Highly recommend

5.00We had the very best day! There was some fog so we pivoted places to go given we could not go to the Peak. We were given choices several times and we love everything that we did. From the food to the sights to the Sampan ride. We took in HK in all its glory and learned so much. We were not rushed but in just one day felt totally immersed in HK!!!
Best Hong Kong guide : )

5.00Kiyo is outstanding. He's knowledgeable, easy going, accommodating, and easily connected with everyone in my family from 3 yrs old to 78 yrs old. His passion for Hong Kong and guiding is evident and makes you excited to spend the day exploring with him. Also, trust him to order food for you. We had the most spectacular lunch thanks to him!! Everything he ordered was insanely good. We're still talking about that meal. Thank you, Kiyo, for giving my family a comprehensive and varied tour of Hong Kong. You are tops!!!
A Trip Worth Remembering with a Guide Who Goes Above & Beyond

5.00Our private tour with Kiyo was an absolute delight over the four days we spent exploring the entire province with him. As avid travelers who sought to immerse ourselves in the local culture beyond the bustling city centers, we placed immense trust in his expertise to guide us to truly unique and authentic experiences for activities and dining. One of the highlights of our trip was savoring meals at the communal monastery cafeteria, where we could connect with the local community and savor traditional cuisine. Another memorable moment was enjoying a refreshing cup of coffee at the picturesque Tai O stilt village, offering a glimpse into the island’s charming architecture and way of life. Kiyo’s enthusiasm and knowledge were infectious, making our journey feel like a friendly exploration rather than a rigid and structured tourist tour. He was always ready to share his insights and recommendations, ensuring that we had a comprehensive and enriching experience. The drivers he had arranged for our transportation were incredibly respectful, direct, and efficient. They navigated the province’s winding roads with ease, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride without any disruptions or bumps. Kiyo’s genuine passion for preserving the authentic and natural unfolding of activities made our trip truly unforgettable. He went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, offering assistance across language barriers and being attentive to our requests, whether it was taking photographs or providing information about specific sites.

5.00We spent 7 hours with Kiyo strolling trough HongKong mostly by foot, subway and tram. He knows a great lot about history and people of this city and told us many interesting stories. The time we spent with him passed very fast, we felt comfortable and safe with him. He is very kind and friendly and we can warmly recommend him as a guide. Thank you Kiyo! B and M from Switzerland
