Hong Kong's best places to eat are small, elbow-to-elbow affairs, and its streets can be crowded, which is why we limit our walks to a maximum of three persons. You'll learn about Hong Kong and what makes it tick from award winning professionals, food and travel journalists. We work with you to design a Hong Kong experience that's perfect for you. If you like culture and history, then it's back streets, hidden temples, old Chinese neighborhoods--even a haunted house! If you love Chinese food, then get ready to indulge. Hong Kong has tens of thousands of restaurants and noodle shops, but like most HKers, we are diehard foodies and have located all the best! (We speak and read Cantonese, so no worries about Chinese-only menus.). Whatever your profession or interest, we can craft a program that will give you the useful information and local intelligence you need to feel at home in Asia's most cosmopolitan city. Our director and your host, Daisann McLane, has unparalleled experience in finding and getting to the heart of the world’s great places. She’s an award winning travel journalist and columnist with National Geographic Traveler, and before that she spent six years roaming the world as the New York Times’ “Frugal Traveler” columnist. She fell in love with Hong Kong: she wants you to fall in love with this great city, too. « less

I am a US-based food writer and, having never been to Hong Kong, wanted a full tutorial on the local food scene. Daisann set up a terrifically informative tour that included several stops along the way for dim sum, roasted meats, healing teas and more. We went to places I never would have ventured on my own. She gave me... More

I was a little worried about the weather, but I'm glad our guide didn't cancel. We were only in Hong Kong for 3 days and wanted something that wasn't guide-book reliant. We did have to postpone until 2 p.m. but we were being constantly notified through text the day prior. I really appreciate that kind of professionalism rather than a... More

My partner and I came to Hong Kong for a conference and only had a half day free to explore the city, so we didn’t want to waste time fumbling around with a guidebook. We’d used private guide services with success in other cities, and based on the great reviews we decided to book with Little Adventures. We’re glad we... More

Day one, we waited over an hour for our guide to arrive at our hotel and we were finally able to connect with the owner who was honestly very sorry for our experience and offered the guide's excuse (which did not match his when we met the next day). Owner and guide very nice but our experience was disappointing. This... More

We very much apologize for keeping you waiting. What happened was quite literally a perfect storm of bad circumstances. On May 25th, the morning your tour was originally scheduled, Hong Kong experienced an unusually heavy tropical downpour. According to HK Observatory, between 40 and 150 mm of rain fell over the city that morning. Normally we cancel our walks when... More

If you want to really learn about Hong Kong- do not miss Little Adventures in Hong Kong! I spent and absolutely incredible day with Daisann during my brief visit to Hong Kong. Daisann makes every effort to customize her tour. Since I was traveling to Asia for the first time, I really wanted to get a glimpse into the culture... More

From the first email contact with Daisann to the actual tour itself, we couldn't have asked for a more professional and caring individual to show us around Hong Kong. In describing our expectations to Daisann prior to our tour, we asked that she design the tour around the local markets, history of Hong Kong, ect... and no shopping. We were... More

Take this tour if you're interested in more than just roaming from restaurant to restaurant mentally crossing off a list of "must eats". We were given a four-hour food tour of Sheung Wan as an awesome wedding gift. We recently moved to Hong Kong, and learned so many new things about the city. Daisann was great. She took us to... More

We are a family of 3 visiting Hong Kong for the first time end March 2013. When planning our travel to Asia, we understood that we needed some professional guiding to explore Hong Kong during our short 3 days stay. We found Little Adventures in Hong Kong on Trip Advisor and contacted them for an offer. Very quickly we received... More

I've always wanted to visit Hong Kong. We only had 3 days in town on a 3 week tour of Asia, so there wasn't any time to waste. We found LIttle Adventures on Trip Advisor.

For my first trip to Hong Kong, I really wanted to immerse myself in the food culture. I knew with a language barrier and only a short amount of time, I was going to have a really difficult time going it alone. I reached out to a few different tour guides, but Little Adventures got back to me with exactly... More
