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

    Benny was absolutely fantastic! He took a simple market food tour, and turned it into a multi-hour tour of local neighborhoods and local eating places. Engaging conversation throughout, and a great pace that matched mine.

    This was a great food tour where we got to taste several variations of street food. The tour was nicely tailored to our preferences. Our guide, Benny was nice and friendly and told us interesting facts about Hong Kong and the food scene. The tour involved quite a lot of walking so if that is not your thing (we enjoyed it) this may not be the right option for you.

    We had the BEST time with Benny! We were only in Hong Kong for 36 hours, and in that time I feel that we were able to see a small glimpse into the REAL Hong Kong, beyond the tourist zones (which, to be fair, are also fabulous - HK is a terrific city and impressed us all around). We ate some incredible bites across many different neighborhoods while walking and talking about everything we were seeing. It is clear that Benny and City Unscripted truly love Hong Kong and want to share it with visitors. Benny reached out a week or so before our visit to confirm preferences and allergies, and made sure to follow up on our requests and specifics during the tour. He was so knowledgeable and fun, and again I cannot stress enough how much we loved our four hour tour, and the many steps we got in! If you do one thing in Hong Kong, let it be this!

    Excellent tour with Benny. The questionnaire before the tour allowed the guide to cater the tour towards your interests. I had limited time in Hong Kong so it was the ideal tour for me.
