All the while, introducing you to delicious local fusion cuisine like dim sum, milk tea, and deep-fried squid. If you’d prefer a classy evening on the town, Central’s sleek ambiance and rooftop bars will draw you in, but the authentic Hong Kong experience will be found at its many night markets, where friends and families chit chat all night long at easygoing dai pai dong restaurants in Kowloon, the sprawling mainland district.

Benny was the best guide. He was prompt and on time as well as very knowledgeable and reliable. He spoke good English and was always looking out for our best interests and safety. We think Benny should get his referral bonus because we booked the Big Buddha and Landau island tour on his recommendation. We tried to use the code which did not work right so customer service sent us a new code which we used to book with. We enjoyed our stay in Hong Kong and will look forward to using City Unscripted again in other cities where available. Thank You Roger Moushabek

We booked this private tour so we could experience Hong Kong in the evening. Calix was an amazing host, she met us at our hotel and escorted us to Kowloon where we tried lots of street food. We visited night markets and the harbor seeing a completely different side of Hong Kong. Great atmosphere, would recommend if you want to see where all the locals go! We used tube trains and walked, so really easy to get around.

The city walk from Mong Kok to Yau Ma Tei included cultural explanations, architectural tours, introduction and tasting of local traditional snacks and popular foods. This was a very rich, diverse and wonderful experience. Thank you Donald for your careful arrangement and safe guidance. Leave a lasting and wonderful memory!

I had a tour with George - what can I say this was an excellent tour. George met me and explained the different elements around Hong Kong. We walked and talked and explored Hong Kong. He showed me the sites while keeping things interesting. He answered my questions. I am very impressed. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and George as someone who not only will show you around - he loves Hong Kong and it shows when he talks about it.

George is very knowledgeable about this city- more than that he loves showing people parts of interest. He tailors the walk to your interest. This is one of the best walking tours I’ve done on my travels.

This was just excellent-out guide Alfred was brilliant. It was actually a really rainy day, a proper thunderstorm but he was very good at finding interesting and alternative things to do and was also hugely knowledgeable and really a delight to spend time with-cannot recommend enough!
