Pre tour communication with Sandra Choi was great until I found out we needed to push the start time about 90 minutes due to unforseen challenges with the 60 ppl morning tour. For this I gave this tour a 4 star. I did feel that the tour was rushed especially since I'm the only participant. and even wondered if the cut off end time for tour was at 6pm since I didnt spend 30 minutes at most of sites as advertised. However, once we started the tour it was seamless. The walk thru Wan Chai area was nice, stops along the way to Yip Cheong building for snacks waa great, even did a takeaway turnip cake treat so as to grab the ding ding tram to Quarry Bay on time. The highlight of this tour for me was the Villian Beating portion and Monster Building at Quarry Bay. Sandra also helped me navigate the Metro system back to Mongkok. I think if this was a group tour, many participants would have cancelled due to the delay of start time. I didnt think the tour company planned this well. All in all, it was an enjoyable introduction to Hong Kong and I'm grateful Sandra spent time with me on my long layover.
