Denis is an amazing guide with boundless energy. We had a short layover and we were able to see the highlights and sample some of the Amazing food in Hong Kong.
We’re so glad to hear Denis made your short Hong Kong layover so memorable! It’s wonderful that his energy and local knowledge helped you see the highlights and enjoy some amazing food. Thank you for your kind feedback!
Benny, our tour guide, was excellent! He met us at the airport early because we arrived ahead of schedule. He made sure we safely boarded all of transport including the high speed trains and double decker buses. We saw so much of Hong Kong in such a short period of time. We even went to a delicious Vegetarian restaurant. I highly recommend this tour and Benny should you have a long layover or if you are staying in the area for a while.
I'm so glad to hear that Benny made your Hong Kong visit so smooth and memorable — from meeting you early to tailoring the day with great sights, transportation, and a delicious vegetarian stop, it sounds like the perfect layover experience!
I had to stop for 8 hours in Hong Kong for layover and I decided to take a tour with my guide Donald. It was a great experience walking in Hong Kong, I will definitely recommend it.
We're so glad you enjoyed exploring the city on foot and truly appreciate your recommendation. Safe travels, and we hope to see you on another adventure soon!
Benny was excellent about communication from the onset. He asked for our preferences, got our flight info, and was waiting for us when we exited customs in Hong Kong. We used the metro, buses and walked everywhere with him, and he provided a wealth of information without being too effusive. He even rode back on the airport express with us to make sure we got back through security to make our connection. We couldn’t asked for a better guide. We’re already working on our next trip yo Hong Kong, and we’ll definitely use him, again. We highly recommend him!
