Jacky was awesome and made sure to teach us all he could about the history of Hong Kong. The tour was very informative and we were able to see some amazingly breathtaking sights. A tour guide really gave us a better insight of the history of this area. I would definitely recommend it!

A Day in the Life of a Hong Kong Local
Millions of visitors come to Hong Kong each year, usually bringing with them some preconceived ideas of the place. They imagine junk boats, Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, street markets, silk, pearls, knock-offs, san pans, tai pans, the floating restaurant, and a really big buddha. It’s so much more than that! Join This is Asia Tours and go beneath the surface of Hong Kong. We’ll show you what Hong Kong is really like- from a local’s perspective.
As lifelong locals of Hong Kong with several years’ experience as tour guides, we at This is Asia Tours are the perfect ones to show you day-to-day life in Hong Kong. We’ll really delve into the culture, customs, and evolution of the city: Rather than ticking sites off a list, we’ll take you on a journey of Hong Kong hopping–exploring Hong Kong on foot and through the many forms of public transport available in the city. Instead of learning about a few typical dishes, we’ll talk about the Hong Kong culinary and cafe culture as a whole. Rather than just seeing the harbor, we’ll learn about Hong Kong’s origins as a British fishing village and how it has transformed into the world financial hub it is today.
We’ll visit diverse parts of the city and get far off the tourist track (while not missing some key attractions) so that you can see and experience where the locals live, shop, eat, and hang out.
See Hong Kong like a local!! We toured Hong Kong with Jacky as a family with 3 young adults. We tasted the most delicious local baked goods that we would not have discovered on our own. Jacky engaged our kids in learning the history of Hong Kong and also mainland China in relation to the island. It was a fun tour and packed with knowledge. Be prepared with a good pair of walking shoes!!
I would definitely recommend Jacky of This Is Asia Tours if you want to experience Hong Kong as a local and through the eyes of a local who loves his city.

Best tour in Hong Kong. Well worth booking a walking tour with Jacky Wong ! We booked the tour later in the holiday but I recommend booking this tour FIRST!! Jacky is very flexible, tell him your ideas & he will work with them! Jacky met us at our hotel, he was in contact beforehand to answer any questions. Jacky showed us how to get around on public transport including ferry, bus, tram & cab! The best most relaxing tour ever!
