Above and beyond

Had a fabulous experience with Wendy she was an excellent guide showing us different sides to Hong Kong we would have missed without the knowledge of a local guide. Nothing was to much trouble even taking us back to the metro so we caught the right train back to the hotel. Definitely an excellent service above and beyond

Operator response

Thank you for your kind words! It’s wonderful to hear that Wendy helped you discover parts of Hong Kong you might have missed and went the extra mile to ensure a smooth experience. Glad you had such a fabulous time—hope to welcome you again in the future!

Best your of Kowloon/HK with Wendy

We had a wonderful time with Wendy as our guide around Hong Kong on our first night. Not only did we get to try some amazing foods we also got to see some local sights along the way. Wendy would have kept taking us to try more foods but we were so full we had to throw in the towel. Would definitely recommend this tour if you're ever in HK

Operator response

Your glowing recommendation truly means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for more delicious adventures in Hong Kong soon.

Unscripted HK is the worst travel agent for HK.

Unscripted HK is the worst travel agent please make sure that you don’t work with them. Booked two tours with them and the second tour they didn’t even inform us and confirm at all. Waited for them and no feedback on the messenger despite our repeated messages. When in HK, do not NOT work with UNSCRIPTED.

Unpretentious fun

Alfred was an incredible tour guide with a deep knowledge of Hong Kong and China’s history. In addition, he took me off the beaten path to try different types of organ meats and peculiar Hong Kong delicacies. An absolute blast.
