Hello! I’m Benny, your adventurous local host in Hong Kong. I’m passionate about sharing the vibrant and diverse experiences this city has to offer. One of my favorite things about Hong Kong is the incredible variety of food and drinks available everywhere—whether it’s savoring tender BBQ pork or indulging in crispy roast duck, there's always something delicious to try. I also appreciate how easy it is to get around the city and how safe it feels. When I’m not exploring the bustling streets or enjoying a meal, you can find me hiking on beautiful trails like Dragon’s Back and Lamma Island or relaxing on a boat trip and lounging on the beach. I love discovering all the cool neighborhoods and the unique charm they each have. I’m also well-versed in local highlights like the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery. Whether you’re here for the food, the scenery, or the vibrant city life, I’m excited to help you experience the best of Hong Kong!

My reviews

We had an amazing day with Benny. He really covered so many of the highlights of Hong Kong that we wanted to see. We went all over the Hong Kong side and Kowloon side. We used every type of public transportation including the peak tram, bus, tram, metro and star ferry. It was the best introduction to Hong Kong that we could ask for. Even after our very full day, he helped us plan the next 2 days of our stay and provided us with detailed information about the other attractions that we wanted to see including detailed directions for the metro (with the correct numbered exit from each station). He gave opening times for the museums that we wanted to go to (and fortunately let me know ahead of time that the history museum was closed on Tuesday when we were planning on going. We also did an evening food tour with him which was great as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Benny Lee was a superb guide. Really knowledgeable and friendly. He took us to parts of Hong Kong we would never have found on our own and encouraged us to try local foods.

We had a lovely 3h private tour. Benny was our tour guide and he was fantastic! Took us to hidden spots around the city and tailored the tour to our needs. Highly recommend when in Hong Kong!

Had a great night in Kowloon with Benny. His local knowledge made the evening the perfect introduction to Hong Kong cuisine, sights, customs and culture. Would have no hesitation in recommending Benny!
