    Overview
    As featured in Lonely Planet, BBC, The Sunday Province, etc! The Real Hong Kong Tour is an award-winning 4-hour, private walking tour of Hong Kong's Central and Western District. Join your local expert to discover real Hong Kong in the most honest and entertaining way possible. Have you wondered what a local thinks of Hong Kong and how do they live? This tour is perfect if you wish to escape from the tourist bubble for some moments to learn – through observation, participation and lots of fun – about the people who live here!
    Highlights
    • An insider's walking tour of Hong Kong
    • Discover off-the-beaten-track markets, temples, and shops
    • Learn about the city's fascinating history from a local
    • Taste your way through authentic food stalls (own expense)
    What to Expect
    Your guide will meet you at the Central MTR station, where you’ll get ready to begin your neighborhood walking tour. Skipping crowds of tourists at popular sites, you’ll be directed to under-the-radar attractions like Statue Square, a picturesque remnant of British-rule with its bust of Queen Victoria.
    Enrich your experience of the city with your guide’s insider knowledge. Learning about the art of feng shui and the everyday lives of real Hong Kong residents, you’ll discover the city’s overlooked gems with visits to Cat Street Market—a treasure trove of antiques—and authentic eateries. Get a taste of traditional culture by browsing through a Chinese medicine market and load up on local delicacies at the city’s fresh food stalls.
    During this quirky, off-the-beaten-track 4-hour tour, you’ll also take a ride on one of the world’s longest escalators. Your walk will be topped off with a visit to Man Mo, a one-of-a-kind 19th-century Taoist temple dedicated to the gods of literature.
