Visite privée de Hong Kong - Les débutants

Alex was amazing. Super knowledgeable, friendly and interesting. I highly recommend her! A wonderful way to discover HK.

Alex was the real deal. Very knowledgeable, personable and detailed. I can’t recommend her more highly. What a nice way to see Hong Kong in a very personal way.

If you have limited time in Hong Kong, this is the tour to take . Alexandra was exceptional, and her knowledge base was extraordinary.

This tour was a brilliant way to be introduced to Hong Kong. Our knowledgeable and pleasant guide was full of enthusiasm and we were astonished what she included into our one day introduction. She gave us insights as to how Hong Kong has become the international city it is today and explained its evolution clearly and in a very interesting way to simply explain its history from Opium Wars to the present day. It was just astonishing how much there was to see and learn. We walked and travelled by different forms of transport including the MTR, Ding Ding Trams and Ferries. Our guide taught us to feel confident about being new to Hong Kong and by using and learning how to navigate the MTR (underground system) it became and easy and inexpensive way to travel around. This was so useful for the rest of our stay. Alexandra our guide, was a font of knowledge. All her explanations were full of detailed local knowledge and her affection for the place was infectious. Amongst many other things we learnt about how the architectural design of Hong Kong’s iconic buildings was influenced by the principles of Feng Shui. For example, it was really interesting to learn that Sir Normal Foster’s design of the HSBC Asian HQ has no ground floor only escalators to take customers to its 1st floor. This openness is to allow evil spirits to flow under the building then having no adverse effect the building’s prosperity. Nearby a competitor’s building is shaped angularly to direct the spirits onto their rivals in the hope of bring misfortune! We travelled all over the city and took the Peak Train up to the top of the Peak to gain a great view of Hong Kong and Kowloon. It was a special trip and one not to be missed along with the views including the house of the wealthy on the hillside. When we returned, we hopped onto the Ding Ding tram to visit the old town to visit the Man Mo Temple, learn about our Chinese Zodiac signs. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch together and then took the Star Ferry to cross Victoria Harbour Kowloon where we learnt about the development of the area and visited the Opera House and the Penninsular Hotel and saw their Rolls-Royce’s, lion dog statues and bellboys. We went into the foyer (amazing who you see there) where the very British Afternoon Tea is served. Our guide was great and helped accommodate our own ideas of places to visit. We said we wanted to go to the Ladies Market, so she took us to Mongkok and the market there and from where we then confidently made our own way back to our hotel. She was so good that we booked her for another private tour day later in the week. It was an itinerary we agreed with her including things we were interested to see. Then we went to Diamond Hill visited the Chi Lin Convent, then Prince Edward and saw the flower market in full bloom ready for Mother’s Day, the bird’s market where people exercised their pet birds and then the goldfish market. We went back on the MTR to Hong Kong park and had a wonderful late lunch at the Lok Cha Tea House (they do wonderful vegetarian Dim Sum. We cannot praise Alexandra and Hong Kong a la carte tour company too highly and we recommend them unreservedly. - 5 stars all the way. We will use them again when next we come to Hong Kong.

This tour was the highlight of our trip! As first-time visitors from the U.S., we didn’t know the first place to start in planning our sightseeing. Our guide Alexandra took care of all of that and brought us all around on a comprehensive tour. Enjoyed it so much that we would come back to Hong Kong in a heartbeat, and after this tour, we feel totally comfortable navigating around on our own.

I booked 3 tours with Hong Kong a la Carte and was extremely excited for all 3. The tour guides were extremely informative about the history, culture, traditions and locations to visit. Absolutely great to make sure I got to do and see everything that could in the time I was there. Would definitely recommend their great service

Our 7 hour Introduction to Hong Kong for first timers was more than we could have asked for. Alexandra gave us history, education and recommendations. We were thrilled with her knowledge and passion about Hong Kong. Highly recommend this tour with her to anybody.

It’s been a great adventure journeying with 2 experienced and caring guides Stephenie & Alexandra over the 5 days trek covering 5 famous trials in Hong Kong. Without any doubt, I strongly recommend any aspiring trekkers to visit Hong Kong & its trials with professional guides under them. Happy hikers from Camino Singapore

Amazing guide took us to the best places and the best Food, knew all the history in detail all around great. Stephenie and júpiter and out driver was also great

Stephanie was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the area, showed us all the interesting sites (Victoria Peak, Buddhist temple, interesting buildings, ferry ride in the harbor, the old jail). She also took us to an excellent authentic place for lunch, the food was great. We enjoyed all the modes of transportation, and she was very flexible about picking us up when our cruise ship made changes in their plans.
