Our excursion in Hong Kong

For the 19.03.2026 my girlfriend and I had booked a private excursion throughout the day. And we were lucky, our guide was Hans. Hans showed us not only the highlights of Honkong with his relaxed and uncomplicated, but also very competent manner, but also "hidden" corners that we could never have discovered alone. The day was packed with exciting and very different experiences that brought us closer to Hong Kong. We were traveling with "My Ship." But a trip on "My Ship" could never have offered us this wealth of experiences, let alone the absolutely individual atmosphere. Here again, thank you very much to you for this wonderful day, Hans, and be very kindly expressed by us! Franka and Gitti from Germany

Great Customized Hong Kong Tour During a Short Cruise Stop

Jacky was a very pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Even though we were in Hong Kong for only a few hours during our cruise ship stop, he customized the tour perfectly, allowing us to experience the essence of the city and take home great memories.

A perfect tour in a great city!

We could not choose a better customized private tour for us to fully enjoy Hong Kong for the first time. The professionalism, knowledge and comfort was as close to perfection as possible. We enjoy it so much that we book other tours for the next couples of days as well. Don't waste your time and money with anybody else other than This is Asia Tour and its owner operating Jacky.

Book it!

Currently sat in the airport lounge waiting for our flight to Tokyo after the most amazing layover tour with Jackie. What a great guy. Friendly and informative. We learnt so much about Hong Kong and got to see so many fantastic places. Really feel that whilst it was a was a whistle stop tour for us, we have seen the authentic Hong Kong and all it has to offer. Many thanks from family O’Neill. If you’re thinking of booking don’t hesitate. He’s brilliant, from the booking process to dropping you back at the airport. A truly five star performance .

AMAZING DAY

We had a wonderful experience with JACKY in Hong Kong. He showed us the city in 8 hours. We saw how the people buy their food daily at the markets. Tasted lots of different things. Everything thing that was on the list to see we did. He knew so much history and speaks perfect English. Fun personality. Would use JACKY again next time we are in Hong Kong. Judi from Los Angeles.

Wonderful tour on Hong Kong

Enjoyed our day with Jacky, from start to finish. He patiently waited for us to get off the ship that arrived later than expected and then we had to pick up family that was staying at a hotel. Once we got underway he provided a great introduction to the City of HK, the culture and customs. He planned a wonderful day for us. We saw the city from two different peaks that had incredible views of the city. We got to various areas of HK from an old fishing village, to a walk along the shops and markets around Queen’s Road. He took us to several Temples and explained the customs, traditions, and meanings. We enjoyed seeing the beautiful Nan Lian Gardens and Chi Lin Nunnery an unexpected treat. We also enjoyed our deliciously filling lunch and enjoyed several new dishes along with learning dining etiquettes. Great way to see the city of Hong Kong.

Great Day

Linda was very caring and tailored everything for us. As we are a little mobility challenged, she avoided places with lots of stairs.
