Hong Kong in Depth Tour

Welcome to Hong Kong ! Upon arrival, you will meet your driver at the waiting area and transfer to your hotel for check-in. Balance of the day is at leisure.

Today, you will visit 2 Kowloon's hidden treasures, the Sham Shui Po and Kowloon Walled City. Sham Shui Po - Home to some of Kowloon's oldest street scenes, a vibrant open-air bazaar, pre-World War Two buildings, relics of wars and fires, a large concentration of public housing, small local boutique shops and very affordable Michelin-recommended street food. This place is one of Hong Kong's most diverse areas where the city's poor and traders from developing countries worldwide make a living here. In many ways, Sham Shui Po typifies the grit, vitality and ingenuity of grassroots Hong Kong, and our walk of the area will show you these aspects of the city in a way that informs and entertains. Your guide will bring you to visit decades-old public housing estates to trace the evolution of blue-collar working class' lives in Hong Kong, some historical streets and tour the quirky flea market on Apliu Street and hear old stories about this biggest open-air bazaar in Hong Kong. Then, take a food adventure that will take you deep into the heart of Kowloon City. First, you will go to a delightful Chinese-style garden where at this famous site of the former Kowloon Walled City, you'll hear near-mythical tales of lawlessness and sin. Then, stroll through the beautifully landscaped Kowloon Walled City Park and see the remains of the former Walled City from the Qing Dynasty. Continue your visit to a traditional Chiu Chow grocery store, where time seems to have stood still. You'll get a taste of what it's like to buy rice, beans, and sauces before the advent of supermarkets.

Today, your Hong Kong in-depth tour will start at Central, which lies at the frenetic heart of Hong Kong, and it’s an unmissable part of any visitor’s trip to the city. Under an electric backdrop of gleaming skyscrapers and mighty colonial buildings, we'll talk about what defines Hong Kong. A short “ding ding” tram ride away to Sheung Wan, a historic place yet increasingly trendy neighborhood. Expect to find hip boutiques and artisanal bakers standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Chinese temples. Along the way, we'll lavish you with local stories that could amuse and surprise even a native Hong Konger. Then, turn yourself into a different angle in your spiritual wonder by exploring a wickedly fun tour about Hong Kong's traditional beliefs and old folks' ghost stories. Amid the skyscrapers of Hong Kong lies a labyrinth of haunted tales. Hungry ghosts? Haunted loos? Seaside spirits? Take your pick. Wan Chai, literally “Little Bay” in Cantonese, is one of the first settlements that the British developed after they took Hong Kong in 1841. The original shoreline got marooned inland generations ago, but the deep layers of history anchored along Queen’s Road East have conspired with the swirl of 21st-century urban redevelopment to make Wan Chai a fertile ground of merry ghost/myth-making. Your guide will tell you some of the interesting local rituals. To heighten your sensory experiences, you will be tasting three delicious local treats.
