Introduction of the "One Country, Two Systems" principle began in 1997 when Hong Kong was handed over to China. What is it? How is it practiced? And what happens after 2047?
Discover why Feng Shui is so important in Hong Kong and how it has shaped the city's skyline. You'll also hear the story of a legendary Feng Shui showdown between the Chinese and the British.
Starting with the iconic HSBC lions, you'll learn why they appear on Hong Kong currency and how the city's coastline and financial district have developed over time.
Explore the history of Hong Kong, from its days as a fishing village before British rule, to becoming a British possession in 1842, and its inevitable handover back to China in 1997. Along the way, your guide will share their own family history, offering a unique and personal perspective on the city's transformation.
We'll take a ride together on the Peak Tram — opened in 1888, it was the first funicular in Asia—and ascend to Victoria Peak!
From an observation deck with a panoramic view of Hong Kong Island, you'll be introduced to the city's skyline and its most significant landmarks.
You'll have 30 minutes to explore and enjoy Victoria Peak at your own pace.
Take a ride on Hong Kong's beloved transportation—the minibus. You will travel through the winding road of the Peak back to Central.
How Hong Kong's extreme rental economy became the defining force in shaping its urban landscape, including the reality of subdivided living units.
Taste a hearty bowls of shrimp-packed dumplings in amber flounder and monk fruit broth—a refugee chef’s reinvention of a 2,000-year-old dumpling tradition.

At one of the oldest temples in Hong Kong, our guide will show you how to properly visit the temple and perform an incense offering and fortune-telling exercise.
Once a street filled with refugees from China selling their family antiques to survive in Hong Kong, you will learn about the evolution of this street as well as the remaining trades that still exist in this market.
Taste an influence from British colonization — egg tart and milk tea! This dish came from Hong Kongers' innovation due to a lack of resources in the post-war economy.
Hop on the Hong Kong Tramway, a beloved mode of transportation since 1904. It has outlived its London predecessor and still carries over a hundred thousand passengers daily.

Our guide was Stephen who was very informative and comfortable to be with. We were fortunate there was only 3 of us on the tour, perhaps because of the weather but Stephen adapted things and we still had a great day despite some heavy showers. A great way to get an insight into Hong Kong , its history and culture when only on a short stay.

Had a wonderful time on this tour with Hazel as our guide. We felt she really made the tour special, was very knowledgeable about the locations we stopped at and about Hong Kong’s rich history. The pacing of the tour was great and there were points at which we got to explore areas on our own to get those perfect photos or get water or a souvenir. We were happily surprised to find that even on a weekend day, we were in a small group of four, which made the tour feel more intimate and we literally got all of our questions answered. This was a great way to get to know Hong Kong for a first time visitor and left a very positive impression on us. Thank you Hazel!

Summer was an excellent tour guide. She brought the places we visited to life with visuals, history, and engaging backstories. The six‑hour tour felt much shorter thanks to her efficiency and thoughtful pacing. She made the walk easy to navigate and kept everyone together throughout. I truly enjoyed this experience with Summer and would highly recommend her tours.

Walking tour of Hong Kong Central was great. We hit major sites and had a great time doing it. Our guide, Deryk, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable and funny and made it a wonderful experience. Our family highly recommends this tour especially on your first day in HK to get to know the area and get a good introduction on the history and culture.
