This was the highlight of my Hong Kong trip. I ended up doing the hike alone with the guide. He was professional and told me many interesting things about Hong Kong. It didn't get weird, even if it was just the two of us. The hike was very beautiful, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Definitley recommend! It's different to the usual tourist traps.
Thanks ever so much Marina for joining us! Was an enormous pleasure to host you :)
Great to see a different side of Hong Kong. Sean was amazing and gave us so much information along the hike and of Hong Kong in general. This is however advertised as a full day trip but it's only half a day. We also didn't get to see any waterfalls as advertised.
Thanks for joining us!
Just a few nice views but as a whole absolutely not worth the money. 12km up & down in the jungle. I had the impression our guide just wanted his money. Only talking about himself. We gave him a few suggestions but he didn’t care at all. Suggestions in order to better prepare his customers to this long & hard walk. I am sure there are better hikes out there !
Maybe there are better hikes out there in the world? One thing for certain, there are clearly more appreciative and understanding people out there who come on this tour and absolutely love it 100%!
Amazing time spent with my personal guide Sean! He was kind patient and very knowledgeable. I can definitely highly recommend this experience with Wild HK! Sophia (London)
Thanks ever so much for the kind words, so glad you had an amazing time :)
My family and I did a kayaking trip to tje Ung Kong islands with Rory. It was a tough day's work. But a fantastic time with amazing views. You won't believe that you're in Hong Kong. Highly recommend all Hong Kong locals to give it a try. You'll discover a part of our city you never knew existed. Deserted sandy beaches. Unique rock formations and caves that you can explore and even go through. Keep up the good work Rory.
Thanks ever so much for the kind words Vinod!
Awesome! Wonderful hiking tour. Those beaches and the view are breathtaking. That was my second time and I will def book this trip again!
It's such a pleasure every time Kathrin!
Today I have had the third tour with Wild Hong Kong through the beautiful Sai Kung area with Tristan which turned out as a private guided tour. He was an amazing and knowledgeable hiking tour guide which felt more like hiking with friends. The highlight of the tour was swimming at the beautiful beach during our break! Would definitely come back for other tours and highly recommend it to others. Good job!
Always a pleasure to have you Tatjana! Look forward to more adventures together on future visits to HK :) All the best Rory and Tristan
This should be one of the top things to do in HK. Rachel was great - professional, very helpful and made for an enjoyable day. Thanks!
Thanks ever so much for the kind words! Was a pleasure having you :)
Alex took our family of 6 on the Sai Kung Beach Adventure. Wild HK was communicative and helpful prior to our trip getting the tour organized. Alex brought us to Sai Kung and was an excellent guide. He gave us various options once we were on the trip and allowed us to craft the perfect day. The beaches and location were stunning, we are all very happy to have found this tour company to include as part of our trip in HK.
Thanks ever so much for the feedback Ben, so glad to hear you had a fun trip and that Alex did a good job :) All the best Rory
Wild Hong Kong is a must for curious and intrepid travellers. Hong Kong is typically known for its city, but Wild Hong Kong challengers that stereotype. Hong Kong has to much to see and the tours I've done with Wild Hong Kong allow me to see the best places. The Sai Kung beach tour was incredible. Even just after Typhoon Mangkhut, me and Rory the tour owner went out to Tai Mo Shan waterfalls. It was a more tricky adventure but completely manageable and a unbelievable visit to the Ng Tung Chai waterfalls. Highly recommended - most travellers don't see what Wild Hong Kong shows us!
Was such a pleasure Tommy :)
