Chef Hans was fantastic. Not only very personable that immediately makes you feel like you have been friends for years but overall just a good person. Very knowledgable, efficient use of time, can't say enough about the experience overall.

I had an amazing time on the Private Hong Kong Tour with a Local. Exploring Hong Kong this way felt so personal and authentic. I visited a few lovely temples, took part in a cultural experience, and wandered through local markets where I got to try some delicious local food. One of the most memorable moments was the fortune telling experience- it was such a fun and unique touch. Regene, my guide, was lovely, knowledgeable, and professional. She made the whole day feel relaxed and truly special. I’d highly recommend this tour!

Karen imparted so much history about Hong Kong that we never realized. She showed us daily life of locals as well as the busy areas preparing for the Chinese New Year. Karen took us on the subway, trolly and the city escalator as she knew I had difficulty walking long distances.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Can I mix different themes in one experience?

Yes! You can blend food, culture, history, neighborhoods, or even a bit of nightlife if time allows. Just share your interests in the questionnaire, and your host will build the day around them.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Will we enter attractions, or just explore from the outside?

That’s up to you! Some experiences include visits inside attractions, while others focus on the city's culture and atmosphere, which can be hard to truly experience without someone who knows the city inside out.

Are food and drinks included, or do I need to pay separately?

Unless stated otherwise, food and drinks are not included. Your host will take you to great spots where you can order what you like and pay as you go.

How much walking is involved?

This depends on the experience, but your host can adjust the pace to suit your comfort level.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
