This is my Hong Kong - The Real Hong Kong

Go off the beaten track with Jamie and get the inside track on what Hong Kong is really like

Hello, I'm Jamie. 52 years living in Hong Kong, 25 years under British Rule, 27 years under Chinese Rule so I have a rather unique perspective on what makes Hong Kong tick | Expert, LOCAL and the Gold Standard of Private Tour Guides in Hong Kong since 2011 according to my guests (over 6,000 guests taken on tour and counting!)

The Truth about Hong Kong

There has been an awful lot of nonsense written by well regarded on line news sources about Hong Kong since 2019 - I will share with you my objective views on any Hong Kong related subject you wish to know about, I know the culture.

Covid 19 - Due to Hong Kong Government restrictions, I did not complete any tours for the period January 2020 to January 2023

If you really want to know Hong Kong then book a premium private tour with Jamie today - I have lived in Hong Kong for 52 years! | when it comes to Hong Kong, NO topic is off the table no matter how difficult or sensitive the subject matter.

Award Winning Exceptional Private Tours in amazing Hong Kong

Former British Colony from 1841 - 1997

All my premium private tours of Hong Kong can be personalised to fit in | stuff | you might like to do but note that the vast majority of people leave it up to me to design the tour itinerary relying on my 52 years of living in Hong Kong and noting that I have completed well over 2,300+ private tours in Hong Kong since 2011 | I am extremely flexible and I am pretty good at doing wish lists, special requests and such, be sure to let me know in advance or when we meet.

Please note I do not have set itineraries as no two tours are ever the same.

I am quite simply one of the most experienced and one of the most highly rated Private Tour Guides in Asia.

You simply cannot replicate the fabulous experience of being on a private tour when you are in a group of 20 - 30 people with a flag waving, microphone wielding bored Tour Guide working from memorised script and aggressively upselling additional paid tours

I do Premium Private Tours of Hong Kong with all guest types | age groups | nationalities and kids are always welcome on my tours.

I do tours from between 3 to 12 hours and it is my job to maximise what you see no matter how many hours you have booked.

In Tour Guide language:-

  • a half day tour is 4 hours

  • a full day tour is 8 hours

Hong Kong has an area of roughly 426 sq miles (1,100 sq km) as such attractions are widely spaced apart and this has to be taken into account when considering the length of a tour.

It is simply not realistic to expect to do Hong Kong’s Top 10 attractions in 4 hours! (You would need a minimum of 3 days to do them all!) and this is where I come in - having lived in Hong Kong for 50 years and having done 50,000 + journeys on our subway system and 40,000+ journeys on buses so I am an expert on timing and the most effective use of our public transport system. - my aim is simply to show you the best that Hong Kong has to offer.

In addition I have done well over 2,300 tours which means I have a pretty fair idea of how to maximise what you see within the time frame of a tour and the longer the tour the more you will see, over 30% of my tours are 8 hours in length.

No matter what tour length you decide on, whether it be 3 hours or 12 hours, I will show you the the very best of this vibrant city.

I absolutely do NOT and will NOT take a commission from any type of establishment.

You read correctly. Any special mention of a retail outlet is not for my commercial gain and my comments are my own based on shopping in Hong Kong for over 52 years. I recommend them because I have received excellent service, the product I want and a good price, and I believe they rate a special mention, you can make up your mind if you choose to visit them whilst in Hong Kong.
