I visited Hong Kong many years ago so I wasn't sure how to get around with the subway. To make the most of our short visit, I booked a tour guide to get our first evening off to a great start. Booked a 4 hour get-around and Benny was great with communication. He agreed to meet us at our hotel and from there we set out on a fun adventure to central Hong Kong area. I am so glad that we learned about the subway and how to use CC or Octopus to pay as we go. Benny kept a good pace and accommodated our various interests. Photography opportunities were everywhere. Lovely street art and we enjoyed seeing various sites. The old prison, where we stopped for a coke and coffee, the many interesting cafes and restaurants (and one spectacular bar called the Dragonfly which we will be back for after tucking in the kids), later we hopped on the beep beep bus and he helped explain how to purchasing procedure works, and then finished with a ferry ride to end the tour along looking out over the beautiful skyline. Really amazing few hours. We were slow with our photography so need to get back out there for some things like the Man Mo Temple (which close just 10 minutes before we arrived) and Benny told us how to get on the red sails cruise which looks wonderful. Perfect english (which I suppose you find often in HK but coming from Thailand it was nice) and great with my kids as they responded well to his positive attitude and camp counselor like guidance. And very patient with me and my GF as we stopped so often to snap away at the wonderful sites of central Hong Kong.
We're so glad you made the most of your first evening in Hong Kong. It’s wonderful to hear the experience combined local insights, hidden gems, and practical tips that helped you feel confident exploring the city on your own. Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback — we're delighted this became such a memorable start to your trip, and we hope you'll be back for more adventures in Hong Kong one day.
