As we are entering the last 3 months of 2018 ( I know right??? How did that happen??? ), it's about time to think about where to say farewell to 2018 and say "Hello" to 2019. One of the very iconic and somehow traditional things to do is going on a Victoria harbour cruise and watching the incredible Hong Kong fireworks with the amazing Hong Kong skyline in the background!

So your tour Hong Kong could be having last Hong Kong walking tours in 2018 and celebrating Hong Kong New Year's Eve with us on a Victoria harbour cruise!

As a Hong Kong foodie, there is no way around a delicious bowl of wonton noodle soup. On a tour Hong Kong, you should ask you Hong Kong tour guide what his favourite Hong Kong food is... It is no surprise that 7 out of 10 times it will be wonton noodle for a quick lunch or breakfast or dinner... basically, any time of the day!

One of the best opportunities to try this mouthwatering goodness is on our Hong Kong food tour, of course! However, if you are on another tour in Hong Kong, ask your tour guide Hong Kong to take you to one of the many wonton noodle shops.

On your Hong Kong day tours, it will be impossible to get passed a street food stall without noticing the delicious smell of the waffles. You will be surprised though that these waffles look a bit different. Our so-called "egg waffles" or "gai dan jai" are an eggy leavened batter cooked between two plates of semi-spherical cells! These mouth-watering desserts come with all kinds of fillings and additions... How about chocolate filled green tea waffles? Or what about purple sweet potato?  What ever your gusto, make sure that your Hong Kong tours include a taste of an egg waffle.

If you can't decide which one to buy on your tours in Hong Kong, don't worry...! You can ask your Hong Kong tour guides and they will tell you about their favourites and you can simply add it to your list of Hong Kong food to try. Nevertheless, a real Hong Kong foodie would not want to miss out on that one, right? 😉😃

There are many places to see on Hong Kong tours but one of the most vibrant and interesting areas and a "not to miss" on Hong Kong day tours or your Hong Kong night tour is Mongkok. With a population density of 130,000 people per sqkm, this district is described as the as the busiest in the world by the Guinness World Records. Mongkok is known for its retail, restaurants and entertainment. For example, have you ever thought of going on to the bird market on tours in Hong Kong? The original market was in Shanghai Street but then had to move. Ask your Hong Kong tour guides to tell you more about it.

Hong Kong tours are not complete if you have not visited a traditional Chinese dry food shop. You will find most curious things from fish maw to dried bird's nests to sea cucumbers. Most of these things are dried and need to be hydrated again. Then they get added into the soup or one can drink them. The sea cucumber is one of the Hong Kong food that get dried and hydrated again. As a Hong Kong foodie, you can, of course, skip trying this but when you are on Hong Kong day tours with us, we will also take you through the districts that sell the dried food.

If you are on a Hong Kong city tour this time of the year, you will see that everybody is very excited as it is time for our Mid-Autumn Festival. The festival celebrates three fundamental concepts that are closely connected:

• Gathering, such as family and friends coming together, or harvesting crops for the festival. It's said the moon is the brightest and roundest on this day which means family reunion. And this is the main reason why people think mid-autumn is important. If you go to a restaurant on your Hong Kong private tours, you will see they are busier than usual.

• Thanksgiving, to give thanks for the harvest, or for harmonious unions.

• Praying (asking for conceptual or material satisfaction), such as for babies, a spouse, beauty, longevity, or for a good future.

beautiful decorations to be seen on your hong kong private tours

Traditions and myths surrounding the festival are formed around these concepts, although traditions have changed over time due to changes in technology, science, economy, culture, and religion. It's about well being together.

Ask your private tour guide Hong Kong to show you the best place to look for the dragon dance on a tour Hong Kong.

A romantic Chinese poem says “May we live long and share the beauty of the moon together, even if we are hundreds of miles apart." The Mid-Autumn or Moon festival was celebrated first in the Tang dynasty (618–907). It is the celebration of the harvest. When you are on a Hong Kong tour these days, you will not escape the decorations and preparations for the "Moon Festival". An important part of the festival celebration is moon worship. The ancient Chinese believed in rejuvenation being associated with the moon and water. Another tradition is to eat mooncakes. If you are on a Hong Kong city tour during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be impossible to walk passed the mooncakes.

How about you plan your Hong Kong private tours with a stop to get some of these exotic delicacies...? Did you know that a mooncake with 2 yolks (yes, egg yolks) is very special? Ask your private tour guide Hong Kong to help you find your favourite flavour!

...Char what....? Char Siu or barbecued pork, to make it more simple, is a cooking method in the Cantonese kitchen and means literally "fork roasted".

You can find this delicious speciality on Hong Kong culinary tours in "siu mei" restaurants. These places are specialised in meat dishes. On your private food tours Hong Kong, you will not only get some mouth-watering BBQ pork but also other meats like roasted goose or duck. Most shops display the meats by hanging them in the window. Usually, the food is served with a side of rice and vegetables.

Should you get hungry on your Hong Kong tour or plan your Hong Kong activities, you should not miss out on barbecued pork!

The flagship of "The Peninsula Hotels" opened its door in 1928 and is a treasure of historical happenings. Definitely worth the visit on Hong Kong walking tours.

For example, in 1941, at the end of the Battle of Hong Kong, Sir Mark Aitchison Young, surrendered in person at the Japanese headquarters on the third floor of The Peninsula. The Governor was confined for two months in one of the hotel suites before being transferred to a prison in Shanghai. The rooms were then reserved for Japanese officers and high-ranking dignitaries, while Hong Kong sank into misery and destitution.

Your private tour guide Hong Kong will tell you this and many other stories on your Hong Kong city tour.

Your Hong Kong private tours come with a customised itinerary. So, don't forget to add the Peninsula Hotel on your tour Hong Kong!
