Perfect exprience of Hong Kong Island - Our tour with Ivy was absolutely perfect — she made Hong Kong’s vibrant food scene and culture come alive in the most delightful way! We began with a classic dim sum experience at Luk On Kui Tea House on Des Voeux Road West in Sheung Wan. It was the perfect start to the day. Walking along Wing Lok Street and Des Voeux Road West, we explored the fascinating world of dried seafood, shark fins, and Chinese medicinal goods. Next, we savored a bowl of the most delicious wonton noodle soup at Mak An Kee on Wing Kut Street. We then hopped on The Escalator, stopping for a cup of Hong Kong-style milk tea at Lan Fong Yuen on Gage Street, where the creamy, rich flavor truly lived up to the hype. Walking through the Graham Street wet market, Ivy gave us a glimpse of the bustling local market life, with its vibrant colors, fresh produce, and authentic energy. A ride on the iconic ding ding tram brought us to Wan Chai, where the food adventure continued with the most succulent char siu (BBQ pork) at Joy Hing on Stewart Road. To top it all off, we ended the tour on a sweet note. trying out some local baked sweets. Ivy was the perfect guide — knowledgeable and warm. Indeed, she did such a great job that we decided to go on another tour with "Hello Hong Kong" to explore Kowloon, where Ivy helped with the booking and making it all happen.

Amazing tour with Sinclair - Amazing tour. Sinclair brought us to very locql restaurants that I would not have even seen otherwise. He also gave us a lot of context and anecdotes on chinese cuisine and culture, which was really the best part of the tour. And he is curious and very open to discussion!

A highlight of our trip to Hong Kong! - We had such a fun experience with Ivy! No one else joined our group so it was just the three of us. Our host, Ivy, was super nice and personable. It felt more like friends hanging out than us as customers and her as our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the history of many restaurants and foods. We loved every place we ate at! Such a great variety to really highlight Hong Kong food culture. Would definitely recommend!

Great food tour - Have just completed the food tour with our guide Mel, we have had an absolutely great time. Mel was a great host taking us in to eating house we would not have had the courage to enter. The food has been superb. Mel also gave us information on the history of the area and the products being sold. Our only regret was we didn’t do this earlier in our stay. Highly recommend this tour.

Excellent first-time experience in Hong Kong! - We had an excellent tour with Sinclair! He was very knowledgeable and shared many historical tidbits and stories around the food and culture in Hong Kong. The food was great, and we were able to see and experience parts of Hong Kong that would have been difficult as first time visitors. Highly recommended!
