Good To Know

  • Your Local Host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary and agree a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience you can always change your mind about what you want to do and eat.
  • Although you will see well known markets, eateries and stores, your Local Host will also help you to discover the places, things and stories that you won’t find in a guidebook and that make the city unique.
  • We’ll be in touch within 24 hours after booking to find out more about your personality, tastes and interests so we can assign a like-minded Local who can create a bespoke experience for you.
  • Your Local Host may also suggest adjustments or new routes if they feel that there is something just around the corner that you may enjoy, or perhaps if the weather affects your itinerary.
  • Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
  • Public transportation options are available nearby

What You’ll Experience

Hong Kong (Pass By)

Join this personalized experience and your host will create an itinerary for you based on what you would like to do. You won’t have time to see everything, so here are some ideas: Feast on Hong Kong’s favorite snack, fish balls, which you’ll find served in a variety of ways, from boiled in noodle soup to fried and dipped in heady curry sauce. Then what about some dishes that’ll have you thinking twice? Snake soup is the perfect warm-up in winter, and dim sum with chicken feet is an experience for the adventurous! You’ll be glad of your host's local ordering skills when you visit a cha chan teng for Yangzhou fried rice. At these informal eateries, food is fast, cheap and wildly tasty - but there might not be a menu! Make your own mind up about the polarizing texture of fake shark fin soup and rice rolls, and indulge in silky tofu pudding from your host’s go-to street hawker for dessert. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Temple Street Night Market (Pass By)

From caged birds to live goldfish (although we’re not sure if you’re in the market for these, but it’s always fun to look), silk clothes and kitchen equipment, exploring this neck of the woods is not to be missed! IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Mong Kok Market (Pass By)

From the fragrant Flower Market to the kilometer-long wardrobe of the Ladies’ Market, you’ll be rewarded with new gems for your wardrobe, home or loved ones in this eclectic shopping crawl in ways that defy description. All you have to do is turn up - let us take care of the rest. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Kowloon City (Pass By)

Lit by thousands of neon signs, this lively district really comes alive when the sun sets and with a name that means ‘9 dragons’, it’s no surprise. Neon lit markets, street eats and bars which sell herbal medicines! Sample from the incredible selection of available street foods - be bold, be brave and try everything! IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Victoria Harbour (Pass By)

See the most incredible views of the Symphony of Lights and Hong Kong Island’s skyline over the water before your host guides you through the maze of streets that make up this exciting area. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Soho (Pass By)

Go behind the scenes in SoHo and Central District, then make a dash to Mong Kok and Harbor City to discover the incredible street art that’s popping up like mushrooms on the mainland. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Public Square Street (Pass By)

Weave your way through the streets to uncover bold murals and hidden gems, snap photos of famous works like the vividly painted stairs of Public Square Street and see what’s new on Mong Kok’s Hall of Fame - no two visits here will ever look the same. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Dundas Street (Pass By)

Head to Dundas Street and explore the gaai, or back alleys, where you’ll find tiny bars selling drinks ranging from herbal medicines to beers! IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Nathan Road (Pass By)

Embrace the ultimate fusion of east and west, a collision that has produced some of the tastiest street food in the world. Indulge in decadent roast goose and hand-made coffee in Tsim Sha Tsui, the region’s southern urban hub. Discover your host’s favorite streetside cha chan teng eateries in Nathan Road - Kowloon’s oldest street - that radiate the mesmerizing, tastebud-tingling smells of snake soup, pineapple buns, fish balls, and tofu pudding. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Kowloon City (Pass By)

Explore Kowloon, the raw, authentic mainland area of the city which sits on the northern shores of Victoria Harbor. Crunch down on deep-fried goodies in Mong Kok, a buzzing pocket of central Kowloon where the only thing more kaleidoscopic than the flavors are the neon lights above. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences
