Incredible guided tour of Hong Kong, and in French. - Alexandra was able to brilliantly transmit to us (part of) her in-depth knowledge of the island, on all subjects: economic, historical, cultural, architectural and social among others.

Exciting - I have visited Hong Kong several times, but thanks to this Tour we discovered many secret places, and especially the culture. Clear and multiple explanations on architecture, Feng shui, Chinese medicine. Exciting visit we highly recommend, even to people who think they know Hong Kong.

Great performance from Alexandra, cultured and pedagogical. - Well-structured visit: the history of Hong Kong with lots of anecdotes, intrusion into HSBC and Standard Chartered with its magnificent stained glass windows, departure by “Ding Ding” for the old town of Sheung Wan with its Man Mo Taoist temple, its walls of Street Art and its extraordinary banyan trees, finally the Tai Kwun district with its first prison in Hong Kong.
To finish in style, an authentic Chinese meal with delicious dim sum, enough to satisfy any good Frenchman!

Great Tour of HK - Thanks to our guide Stephanie - Stephanie introduced us to the whole history of HK and completely immersed us in the "Hong Kongese" culture. The visit was very informative (even for me although I have lived in HK for 5 years already) and interactive. This also allowed us to discover some super cool places (street art etc.). The whole family loved it from the oldest to the youngest.

Great half day tour - Fantastic and insightful walk that centred on Kowloon Walked City (it’s now a park). Highly recommended. Highly informative tour guide. Loved it.
