What you’ll do

If you’re looking for a crash course in Hong Kong life, this is it. Local knowledge will kick-start your adventure, ensuring you know how to get around, and how to stay safe in the chaos of this monumental melting pot. Walk the streets of touristy areas like Sheung Wan on Hong Kong Island or Mong Kok in Kowloon, and let your guide show you the side of the city hidden from guide books and Instagram feeds alike, where a little lesson in Cantonese can go a very long way. In just a few hours, you could fall in love with street food favorites like pineapple buns and fish balls, and it won’t be long until you’ve got a firm grip on wholesome Hong Kong and all its transport options. We’ve got you covered - you’ll be a city slicker in no time!

    Pinky was an amazing guide. I highly recommend her. She's so personable, fun, and flexible. I was mostly interested in food, so we went to several great places and due to my limited walking ability, she couldn't have been more accommodating.
