Great compact tour for the beginners - Definitely a great experience to start your trip in Hong Kong! We had a tour with Issac who guided us through the crowded Hong Kong centre, explained how and why Hong Kong started to develop, what's in store for it in the future, how the main banks issue money. We also walked through the Central Mid-Level Escalators and visited Man Mo Temple where Issac showed us the basic worship you can do. He also answered a lot of questions regarding the history and the culture of Hong Kong. Loved it, totally recommend visiting!

The second time on this tour did not disappoint! - I highly recommend this interesting and informative walking tour. This is the second time I've attended the Introduction to Hong Kong Free Walking Tour, last time in 2019 (when I also did the Dark Side tour, which was equally good). Despite having done the Island tour before, this one gave a new perspective, informing us of culture, religion, food etc in Hong Kong. Stephen Lau was the perfect guide, sharing his personal experience of Hong Kong along the way.

Excellent guided walking tour - I really enjoyed this experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable, super friendly and gave us very interesting background on Hong Kong including the people, the culture, the transfer from the British to the Chinese, and on some of the major buildings - new and old, how feng shui influences many parts of the culture including architecture, and then ended at a Taoist temple. We only had the day to spend in Hong Kong and this was a great way to spend a couple of hours getting just a small taste of this intriguing city.
