Donkere Kant van Hong Kong - Kowloon Caged Homes Wandeltocht
Beschrijving
Hoewel Hong Kong bekend staat als een bloeiend internationaal financieel centrum, worden bezoekers vaak alleen de zonnige kant van de stad getoond, met populaire attracties zoals The Peak, Victoria Harbour en Big Buddha in het middelpunt. Maar hoe zit het met de 1,5 miljoen mensen die in armoede leven, waardoor Hongkong een van de meest ongelijke plekken op aarde is? Onze tour duikt in het hart van het kapitalistische systeem van Hong Kong en geeft u een eerste blik op de grimmige realiteit waarmee veel burgers te maken hebben. Je bezoekt een onderverdeelde eenheid in een van de armste wijken van de stad - Sham Shui Po, wat een schril contrast vormt met de economische welvaart die zo overvloedig lijkt. Ga met ons mee op een reis om Hongkong in een realistischer licht te zien en een dieper inzicht te krijgen in de ware verhalen van de mensen. Meld je nu aan voor een tot nadenken stemmende en eye-opening tour.

This was my second tour with Michael Tsang's Hong Kong Free Tours (香港自由行), and it did not disappoint. Lok Lok introduces you to aspects of Hong Kong you are not going to uncover or understand on your own. Finally, the price is very reasonable for what you get.

Hody was an excellent guide: she put us at ease, answered a million questions, and above all, with great grace, she let us explore the dark side of Hong Kong. The proposed tour goes beyond traditional standards and is for this reason even more special; because of the topic covered (the housing system) and the frankness with which the subject is addressed. Hody, thank you from the bottom of my heart

Had a wonderful experience with Hody, she was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the housing situation in Hong Kong and was a great tour guide. She was very professional and thoughtful to us all especially in the hot weather we had during that time. This tour is really a must do during your stay in Hong Kong.
