A different perspective in Hong Kong - We loved this tour. It was very informative for us as first timers in HongKong. We saw streets and places that otherwise we wouldn’t have noticed and Simeone provided us with the necessary background information. We also tasted small portions of traditional food. Simeone also was kind enough to wait for us when we arrived a bit late. Thanks a lot!

Summer was a gem! - Summer was just an absolute gem of a tour guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable, so much fun to spend the afternoon with, and really made the walking tour special, genuinely one of the best guides I've ever done a tour with. The food tasting was an array of bite sized samples, from baked good, seafood, meat, and fruit - all delicious! There was some history and other discussions on the tour as well, a really well rounded experience. If you book the tour, ask for Summer!

Kowloon Market Adventure - If you want to see the real Hong Kong, book this tour! Our guide, Isaac, was incredible and took us through the heart of Kowloon’s local markets. We tried everything from longans, lantern gooseberries, fresh abalone, dried sausages, walnut cookies, century egg, and sweet vinegar. Every stop was better than the last. It felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a local friend. He was also able to suggest some restaurants for us to try some local dishes. Which we did!! An absolute must-do! This was incredible value for money, and I would do this tour again the next time I’m in Hong Kong and highly recommend Isaac as your guide!

Lovely afternoon tour - Very well organised tour. I signed up rather last minute with no issues. I received a confirmation message which included detailed information on how to find the meet up point promptly. Stephen was a lovely guide. He’s clearly enthusiastic about the heritage of Hong Kong. Nice tour wandering the different markets and tasting some local specialties.

First visit to Hong Kong - Summer Chan was excellent and made this tour 5 star. She was a local "Hong Konger" who was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic & affable. I am 65 years old & this is my first trip to Hong Kong. I would recommend to anyone going for first time. Tour was 3 hours and involved a lot of walking, but was on flat surface and easy pace. I was initially concerned to our party size of 15 walking in tge city, but Summer took us around like a pro without any problems.

Tour was not what was advertised - Be aware that this could be a group of up to 16. We booked what was advertised as a 2 hour tour for up to 6 people. The tour was for 16 and was scheduled for 3 hours. We are vegetarian and there was no option offered for us so we missed out on the dining experience and left the tour early Quite disappointing although our guide was excellent and none of this was his fault. Also the meeting place was different to the messages we got from the tour guide We will be taking this up with Viator.
