Incredible experience exploring Sham Shui Po with Mel

Published on Nov, 2024

This is a can't miss tour if you have an opportunity in Hong Kong. While there is amazing food throughout this great city, this tour allows you to experience some delicious and varied food while exploring a section of the city that is somewhat less accessible to many visitors. The variety of foods to try is incredible! Mel was a terrific guide who was thoughtful, knowledgable and engaging. Plus you may see him in the movies from time to time. This is a terrific way to spend 4 hours in Hong Kong. We are already planning on bring our children for another tour with Mel!

Good private food tour.

Published on Oct, 2024

We had our private tour with Sinclair earlier this month. Sinclair was very friendly and accommodating for our small group of two. He was very proactive in taking photos and explained everything we passed by. Sinclair was also good in making sure we had some food items "to-go" for us to eat back at the hotel as we started getting too full on the tour (haha).

Just Do It!

Published on May, 2024

Excellent food and cultural tour I would highly recommend. Mel was very knowledgeable about the food and history of the area. Having lived previously in HK I learned a lot of new information. The food was good and Mel was great company and easy to get along with. We booked directly with the company and communication with Mel was easy. The light show at the end was a great end to the tour. Thank you for a great experience.
