Great tour of the city. Saw a lot in a short time. The views were amazing.. there was a lot to see. Liz was a wonderful tour guide
Robert and Elvis were outstanding. We saw everything that was on the itinerary and more. Robert had a vast knowledge of the history of Hong Kong. We feel like we have a great understanding of Hong Kong.
We are now back in Germany and I was a little ill and not online, so my feedback on Hans is only coming today. It was an exceptionally nice day in HK, we would like to thank him again. You can count yourselves very lucky with this guide, Hans made this day unforgettable! We saw a lot and also tasted a lot of delicacies. We hope that many more travelers will enjoy it.
Liz was exceptional! Her tour was just like speaking with a friend - it starts off with a personal anecdote that gradually morphs into tidbits about Hong Kong that I definitely would not have heard of on my own as a tourist. Most of the places in the itinerary were covered - we took in lots of new knowledge, lots of beautiful pictures, and a fantastic lunch to boot. It was extra great that Liz was so considerate of the needs of the three senior citizens and one toddler we had in our group - everyone had a great and easy time. Thanks so much for this amazing and smooth tour!
Pearline was a fantastic tour guide with great sense of humour and knowledge. The dim sum for lunch was delicious. Ken was a great driver, we got to see so much.
Jackie did a great job showing us around the city. He’s extremely knowledgeable. We covered a lot of ground in the six hours and topped it off with with a wonderful lunch of dim sum.
Jacky is excellent , great on history anecdotes and stories of HK and good fun also and tailored the day to suit us and nothing was a problem. we saw all the highlights and he took group phots and sent them to us afterwards. could not have been better and I highly recommend him

Jacky was an incredible tour guide. He met us in our hotel lobby right on time and off we went, on foot! Jacky said the way to know the city is to be with the people and learn about them by being with them. He was such a thorough guide, taking us on a circuit, never missing a thing. We used just about every mode of transportation including the train, bus, taxi, incline, and trolly. We never would have been able to negotiate any of this without him. Each method of transportation led us to another attraction but we were in each vehicle for just a short time each. We did a lot of walking that was so enjoyable and well paced. He was so enthusiastic about Hong Kong and the people, we thoroughly enjoyed being with him. Along the way, Jacky took photos of us and emailed them to us the next day. His English was perfect, making it easy to listen and talk with him. Thank you, Jacky, for our most memorable time.

Jacky picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Sai Kung for a day trip. He was incredibly accommodating, making a quick side trip to the nearby university where one member of our party did a semester abroad in 2008. When we arrived in Sai Kung, he dropped us off to shop a moment while he parked the car. I bought a souvenir, and Jacky immediately took the souvenir and stored it in the car so I wouldn't have to carry it all day. He arranged for a boat tour and was adamant that "safety" be a top priority with the boat captain. The waves were strong and the boat trip a bit rocky-and he had anticipated this. When we returned to eat at a seaside seafood restaurant, he got up from the table and purchased napkins from the local 7-eleven for us to use during the meal. On the return trip to Hong Kong, he dropped two of us off at one location and then returned the other two to the hotel. He was incredibly kind and knowledgeable throughout the day. He is an experienced guide and I felt well cared for through out the day; I appreciated how he anticipated our needs. He is also an excellent and confident driver which was a plus when we hit rush hour traffic on the return trip.

After our private tour, the day before with another company, we were SOOOO happy that we had booked with Jacky. He listened to what we thought we'd like to see, and made suggestions of more things to do. His English is great (unlike Johnny, the day before), he was fun to be with, and we loved our entire day. We could not have asked for a better guide. Sorry it has taken this long to post, Jacky. Merry Christmas from Steve and Peggi. I will post photos when I am on my other computer.
