    Very well organised, tour guide (Perl) was very informative, funny and extremely friendly. Lunch was more than we expected and thoroughly enjoyed it and we are not vegetarians. We would definitely recommend this tour, one of our highlights of our 4 week holiday.

  • Great day with one amazing Guide

    First I have to say a very Big Thank you to Ryan, our guide, he got us back to our Hotel safely after us and another family from Ireland had to jump off our bus owing to the protesters in Kowloon and the bus was stuck in traffic with roads closed. He got the other family to their hotel and then my husband and I to the underground, purchased our tickets, we all got on the train and off at other end, then through the crowds got us back to our Hotel in Mica Place, scary for us, but he was wonderful and we could not thank him enough for his efforts to make us safe. We had a wonderful day and a great group of people who all enjoyed the day. Ryan made it relaxed for us all to enjoy as we covered many different area, many different places. Wonderful and thanks Ryan, much appreciated
