Top Hong Kong Tours & Day Trips

Your Complete Guide to the Best Hong Kong Tours, Harbour Cruises & Day Trip Experiences

Hong Kong is a city of striking contrasts: glass towers and neon lights set against forested hills, traditional temples beside luxury malls, bustling markets leading down to one of the world’s most famous harbours. With so much to see – from Victoria Peak and Victoria Harbour to Lantau Island, outlying villages, theme parks and nearby Macau – it can be hard to know where to start. This page gathers the best Hong Kong tours and tickets in one place so you can quickly find the experiences that match your interests, time and budget.

Many visitors begin with a classic Hong Kong city sightseeing tour. On this page you’ll find options that loop through Central, Tsim Sha Tsui, Causeway Bay and Kowloon, passing landmarks such as the Peak Tram station, star-studded promenades and major shopping streets. Hop-on hop-off bus routes and guided city tours help you get oriented, making it easy to decide where to spend more time later – ideal for first-time visitors who want an overview without worrying about transport or navigation.

Hong Kong’s skyline is one of the most famous in the world, and the page includes several tours focused on Victoria Peak and harbour views. Typical experiences combine rides on the Peak Tram, access to observation decks, and free time to enjoy sweeping views of the city and harbour. You’ll also see ticket options for observation platforms such as sky-level viewing decks and popular city viewpoints, perfect for travellers who want those must-have photos of Hong Kong from above.

A highlight for many visitors is seeing the city from the water, and this page features a wide range of harbour cruises and boat tours. These include evening junk-boat trips like the well-known Symphony of Lights harbour cruises, relaxed Victoria Harbour sailings and themed cruises with commentary and a drink included. Some options focus on the iconic skyline at night, while others explore lesser-seen corners of the harbour and coastline, giving you a fresh perspective on Hong Kong’s maritime character.

For a deeper look at Hong Kong’s islands and coastal communities, the page also showcases Lantau Island and outlying island tours. These experiences often visit attractions such as the Big Buddha and nearby monasteries, hilltop viewpoints, fishing villages and scenic coastal paths. Full-day small group tours to Lantau or nearby islands allow you to escape the city’s pace and discover traditional stilt houses, quieter harbours and green hills, all with transport and logistics handled for you.

Families and theme-park fans will find a variety of attraction tickets and combo passes featured on this Hong Kong tours page. These may include admission options and skip-the-line style tickets for major sites like Hong Kong Disneyland, Ocean Park, famous observation decks, cultural attractions and popular museums. Booking these passes in advance helps you avoid long queues and secure your preferred dates, especially during weekends and holidays.

Hong Kong’s neighbourhoods each have their own personality, and you’ll find several walking tours and cultural routes focused on different districts. Options often include guided walks through markets and side streets in Kowloon, historic corners of Hong Kong Island, and neighbourhoods known for temples, antique shops or colourful street life. These tours are ideal for travellers who enjoy discovering local stories, small shops, traditional crafts and everyday life beyond the main shopping avenues.

Food is at the heart of Hong Kong life, and this page includes food tours and tasting experiences for visitors wanting to explore the city through its flavours. Guided routes may take you to dim sum houses, family-run eateries, noodle shops, dessert stalls and lively night markets, with explanations of local dishes and dining customs along the way. These tours are especially appealing if you’d like to try a variety of foods in a short time while gaining confidence to order on your own later.

For travellers with extra days, you’ll also see curated day trips and regional excursions from Hong Kong, including options that visit nearby cities or islands. These excursions can include guided itineraries to destinations such as Macau or other coastal and cultural areas, allowing you to experience a different side of the region without organising separate transport, tickets and border details yourself.
