We enjoyed the stops we had on the tour! The food was delicious and Sheila was a great guide. She provided information about the types of food and how they play a part in the food culture of Hong Kong.

We truly appreciate your review. It's wonderful to hear that the tour gave you a chance to slow down, explore, and enjoy some of the city's local favorites. Thank you for choosing Secret Food Tours!
We had a lovely time touring and tasting with Siu Wai on Hong Kong Island. From some of the best dim sum to delicious milk tea — a true Hong Kong tradition — every stop was memorable!
We loved reading this. Knowing the experience gave you a memorable way to enjoy your time in the city means a great deal to us. We’d be delighted to host you again with Secret Food Tours!
It was a great tour and tourguide Sandy really took us to nice restaurants and explained a lot about the food and foodculture of Hong Kong. I highly recommend this tour and tourguide Sandy.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review! It means a lot to know your time with us felt memorable and added something special to your day. We’d be delighted to welcome you back with Secret Food Tours anytime.
What a wonderful tour! Sandy was an absolute fantastic tour guide! The restaurants she took us to were the favorite places that the locals go to. We ate delicious treats from noodles to dim sum to tea made by a tea master. The small group tour was just right for our group of 4 and another group of 2. She also took us to a wet market, explaining what we saw and how things are done here in Hong Kong. Additionally, she also took us to one of the very old temples, explaining the traditions here. We learned about the living situations and the cost of living for the average citizen in Hong Kong. The only negative was that during the tour we had to pay an extra $100 USD for the drink package that really didn’t cover anything but a can of beer and a glass of rice wine- neither of which did we have time to drink.
We’re grateful you shared your experience with us! It’s great to know the day felt relaxed, enjoyable, and full of good moments along the way. Secret Food Tours would love to welcome you back.
Sandy was a terrific guide who really knew her stuff! She was personable and knowledgeable, and we learned all kinds of interesting facts as we stopped at various restaurants and cafes to sample the food the people of Hong Kong enjoy everyday! Everything was so delicious, and the tour was interesting and not too hard on the body! My 81-year-old mother was able to do the walking quite easily, as were the few children on the tour. It is a great tour for all ages and really quite enjoyable. I’d recommend this tour to anyone who only has a few hours to get a real taste of authentic Hong Kong.
We’re grateful you shared this with us. It’s good to know the experience offered both quality and a strong sense of place. Secret Food Tours would be happy to host you again!
My mum and I had the amazing Sandy as our tour guide and she was spectacular - kind, funny, patient and very knowledgeable. The food was incredible too. We have fallen in love with this city due to this tour. Thank you Sandy
Thank you for sharing this feedback. We’re pleased the experience brought everything together in a seamless way. Secret Food Tours would be glad to welcome you again!
Sui Wai led us thru a part of Hong Kong that we probably would have never visited on our own. She was very patient with our questions, informative about the area and the shops and explained the small details of Chinese Hong Kong culture that we did not know or understand. All of the food stops were very good, ESPECIALLY Sister Wah!! Would recommend this tour, and Sui Wai, to anyone.
Thank you for taking the time to share this. It’s always good to know the experience felt well balanced from start to finish. We’d be happy to have you back with Secret Food Tours!
Absolutely excellent tour today with Sandy! It’s my first time in Hong Kong and this was the perfect introduction to the city, and I have a full list of recommendations for the rest of my trip! Thanks Sandy!!!
Thank you for taking the time to post this! It’s always nice when everything flows naturally from one stop to the next. We’d be glad to welcome you again on another Secret Food Tours.
So much food! Sandy was an amazing guide with a great selection of stops. We were so full though, probably could have skipped the tea house. Great day, we thoroughly enjoyed it!
Appreciate you leaving this here! It’s good to know our tour delivered in a way that felt natural and easy to enjoy. There’s always another Secret Food Tours waiting if you’re up for it.
