Must do! Get to know the main island! - A really great way to experience the main island & hear some interesting facts about how Hong Kong started & how it got to where it is today. We had Summer as our tour guide. She was bubbly & full of knowledge. I would recommend this tour to get a feeling for the city & getting your bearings. This tour has a good balance of walking & small breaks. However be mindful, Hong Kong in general is very hilly, with lots of slops & stairs.

Great start for any HK visit - We really appreciated the info provided by Alice. Listening to her personal story and life in Hong Kong really put things into perspective and helped us get a clear picture of what we were seeing and visiting. The places visited were also telling of the local culture and she gave us great tips for eating, shopping and all the rest of our touristy activities. Would def recommend!

Easy paced and informative tour - Excellent tour from an experienced local. Isaac was very knowledgeable and a pleasant tour guide who shared a lot of valuable insights. Great tour for first timers as well as those who have lived or been to HK before. Tour was 2 hours which was perfect especially in the HK heat and humidity!
