Sail Across Victoria Harbour

See the skyline from the water on a classic ferry ride.

Hong Kong’s Must-Sees & Hidden Gems: A Day Designed for You

Start your day aboard the Star Ferry from Central to Tsim Sha Tsui. Feel the breeze, spot skyline icons, and maybe grab an egg tart or milk tea along the way.

Skyline Views from a Hidden Perspective

Choose between the Avenue of Stars or a rooftop café.

Take in cinematic harbor views at the Avenue of Stars, or let your host guide you to a peaceful rooftop garden or quiet terrace café for a more serene skyline moment.

Find a Hidden Temple or a Peaceful Teahouse

Step into incense-filled calm or sip tea tucked away.

Pause for reflection at a tucked-away temple lined with fortune tellers, or enjoy the slower rhythm of a local teahouse serving classic milk tea and quiet conversation.

Markets & Local Streets: Energy or Escape?

Neon-lit chaos or a calm corner to unwind—you decide.

Dive into Mong Kok’s market maze, packed with vendors and neon, or veer off to a low-key nook where locals sip tea and time slows down. Your host reads the mood.

Victoria Peak—The View, Without the Crowds

Hike, ride, or relax—there’s more than one way up.

Skip the Peak Tram line and take a local minibus or scenic path. If views are all you’re after, your host might reveal a quiet lookout only locals know.

Choose Your Ending: Art, Reflection, or Food

Wrap up with what inspires you—culture, calm, or cuisine.

End your day at Tai Kwun’s art spaces, a quiet temple with swirling incense, or a local dai pai dong where sizzling dishes and neighborhood stories are always on the menu.

Helt fantastisk oplevelse med en lokal guide, som på forhånd sendte et forslag til dagens program og vi kommunikerede direkte med hende. Det var super fint tilrettelagt efter vores ønsker. Absolutely fantastic experience with a local guide who sent a suggestion for the day's program in advance and we communicated directly with her. It was super well organized according to our wishes.

Robert did a nice job walking around the waterfront area. Really knew the history. as he had lived in Hong Kong for many years. Was a very crowded day as it the start of the National holiday.

Katerina Oct 2025

It was incredible experience with Hans. He is very knowledgable and showed us most interesting spots in Hong Kong. Be prepared to walk over 10,000 steps as this is walking tour. Thank you Hans for the tour.

Our very nice guide Regene

Estibaliz Oct 2025

Excellent experience guide very friendly and knowledgeable we were able to see many sites and walk around the city.

Mary Oct 2025

Regene was excellent at taking us to areas of HK that the ordinary visitor never sees at all. We took the subway system a couple of times which showed how efficient and clean the system is for the population. We ate at a wonderful place where Regene chose delicious foods from the menu. The tour was 5 star from beginning to end. I highly recommend Regene as a great gyude.

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.

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!

What kind of stories and insights will my host share?

Each host has their own personal relationship with the city. You'll experience the city through their eyes—hearing stories about places they love, discovering hidden gems, and learning what makes their city special in a way that goes beyond a typical tour.

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.

Do I need to pay for the host's food or drinks?

No, if you and your host decide to stop for food or drinks during your experience, you don’t need to cover your host’s expenses—your host will take care of their own.

Can we explore outside the main city?

Yes! If you’re interested in day trips or exploring beyond the city, let us know in the post-booking questionnaire, and your host will design an itinerary that takes you to incredible places off the usual tourist path.

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.
