Tours

The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) operates a series of interesting theme tours – horse racing, harbour cruises, city sights and the like – some of which are free; consult HKTB’s brochures for details. Other tour operators include Star Ferry (www.starferry.com.hk) for harbour cruises; Gray Line (www.grayline.com.hk) for coach tours around the SAR; Hong Kong Dolphinwatch (hkdolphinwatch.com), who run boat trips out to see the renowned pink dolphins; and the highly recommended Urban Discovery food tour (urbandiscovery.asia), where you spend an evening sampling local street food and snacks in Jordan’s backstreets.

Rough Guides tip: When planning a trip to Hong Kong, be sure to choose the best place to stay in the city.
