Stopover in Hong Kong - We had a 5hr tour with Ashley and she showed us some of the most interesting parts of Hong Kong. We really enjoyed her feedback on the different aspects we saw including a very nice lunch! A perfect way to spend, if you have little time, a few hours in such a big city with a local knowledgeable guide.

The ONLY way to see Hong Kong in Layover Tour - We ADORED Ashley and would book her for ANY tour of Hong Kong! She’s totally Engaging and has your entire attention and comfort at heart from the very beginning. She begins communicating with you as soon as you book the tour. She takes care of ANY complications you may encounter even upon arrival or departure! Think of her as your local translator and guide from the moment you arrive. And everything is included. She tailors the tour to your speed and tastes. We loved the historical, cultural and economic insights she gave us about her heritage. The Chinese Tea and Dim Sum were a delightful highlight of the tour. And we enjoyed ending the tour just after dusk atop the tallest building in Hong Kong up at 100 Sky for a 360 view of the city at 393 meters above the city at night time. Oh how beautiful! This has got to be THE BEST Layover Tour of Hong Kong for a small private group. Ashley’s attention to details and her enthusiasm for sharing her heritage with her background in Journalism are an incredible experience not to be missed. When your tour is complete you are not just friends you are family.

Best introduction of Hong Kong - I stopped by Hong Kong several times before but never got the chance to know much about the city. That is, until I went on one of them layover tours - and let me tell you, it was an absolute belter of an experience. This lass Ashley, she showed me the ropes and gave me a proper introduction to her beloved city. In just a short while, I learned a right fair bit about Hong Kong's history and culture, was gobsmacked by the skyline, and even got to nip out to some lovely greenery for a breather. The delicious local grub was the icing on the cake, and Ashley's infectious enthusiasm made everything flow smooth as silk. I'll surely be back to know this cracking city even better.

Above and beyond - Ashley provided an outstanding private layover tour in Hong Kong that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we met, her knowledge of the city and passion for sharing its highlights and hidden gems was evident. The tour was meticulously planned, ensuring we made the most of my limited time. Ashley navigated the bustling streets with ease, introducing me to authentic local cuisine, historical landmarks, and breathtaking viewpoints that I would have never discovered on my own. Her warm personality and excellent communication skills made the experience truly enjoyable. I cannot recommend Ashley's services highly enough - this tour was the highlight of my Hong Kong layover and I will cherish the memories for years to come. Five stars without a doubt!

Such a great layover tour! - Ashley is a fantastic guide: friendly, nice, and really knowledgeable about HK culture and history. Before I arrived in Hong Kong, Ashley checked with me and customised the tour to suit my preferences. From the moment she picked me up at the airport, time flew by in between anecdotes, food (she’s an expert on local food and knows all the best spots) and highlights of Hong Kong: it felt like I was just strolling around with an old friend! We managed to cover so much in 6h, and she made sure I was at the airport at a convenient time for my next flight. I had such an unforgettable experience and totally recommend Ashley’s tours!

A perfect layover in Hong Kong - I was stopping over Hong Kong between two long flights. The tour with Ashley was a great choice and the highlight of the trip. Ashley is a very knowledgeable guide and a warm and attentive person who looked after me like an old friend. I had such a great time in Hong Kong - I saw and learned so much, even tasted incredible local delicacies, yet I had never felt rushed an I could really enjoy this beautiful city in quite a relaxing pace. And with a subtle and brilliant “time-keeper” by my side, I got back to the airport at the time she promised! Such an unforgettable experience! I highly recommend Ashley M to anyone who’s planning to visit Hong Kong!

Bike Tour in Hong Kong - This was quite a memorable and a well organised tour. In one day, I learnt so much about the history of NT in Hong Kong and explored a hidden heritage trail. Thank you Ashley for being a wonderful host and guide.

Wonderful Experience - My wife and I have had many wonderful private tour guides and can honestly say Ashley ranks as the best tour guide we have ever had. There are always many guides to choose from but Ashley is DEFINITELY and ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT! She is an Expert in her field. For so many reasons, we would highly recommend Ashley to all of our friends and family and urge anyone reading this review to look no further. You might be missing out if you were to choose someone else.
