Enjoy 4-hours exploring the night view of the Kowloon area of Hong Kong. Affectionately known as the ‘Dark Side’ of Hong Kong you will see the city at its grittiest and most captivating. You will enjoy an in-depth exploration of Kowloon, discover Michelin-rated street food, become immersed in the local culture, and learn about Kowloon’s history. Your local guide will cover everything from the past to the present, explaining Kowloon’s transformation through to the modern day. In Sham Shui Po you will ‘eat like a local’ as your professional guide introduces you to a range of local street food including two restaurants that have received Michelin ratings with Bib Gourmand awards. Next, you will explore Mong Kok, the Goldfish Market, and Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront where, if time allows, you can watch the famous Hong Kong light show at 8 pm after the tour finishes.

  • Sham Shui Po District, Hong Kong, China
    This is a tour about 'The Dark Side' of Hong Kong. We explore Kowloon discovering some of the 'darker' topics; poverty, triads, prostitution, grey markets. Your tour starts in Sham Shi Po, the least affluent district in Hong Kong. Don’t come here for a fancy gourmet meal. Instead, come here if you want to try Michelin-recommended noodles and snacks that won't make a dent in your pocket. Here your local guide will take you on a street food tour to discover the best local eats and introduce you to the local culture and living environment. We cover between 4 and 6 food stops on every tour. Tour itineraries and stops might differ depending on several factors such as your interests, the walking pace, and weather, etc. We try to include two Michelin-rated Bib Gourmand eats on every tour. (This is not a Michelin star food tour as Vaitor describes it - Viator refuses to remove that description even though we have told them it is misrepresenting our tour).

  • Mongkok, Hong Kong, China
    Moving on from Sham Shui Po we head to Mongkok, a district famous for its shopping, markets, and glimmering neon lights. One of the most densely populated parts of the world Mongkok is every amateur photographer's dream. You will explore the bustling streets of Mong Kok with your tour guide, taking in the famous Goldfish Market and electronics streets. We will explain what is going on inside the masses of high-rise buildings surrounding the markets. Prostitution, illegal gambling, and subdivided living are all rife. This is your insight into the 'dark side' of Hong Kong. But don't worry, there is nothing dangerous about our exploration, Hong Kong is one of the safest cities in the world and Mong Kok is one of its top tourist destinations; you’re just getting the inside scoop on what lies beneath the surface! ** We may pass through different markets in Mongkok depending on your interests, the walking pace, and weather, etc
    60 minutes
  • Chung King Mansion, Hong Kong, China
    From the gritty and frantic streets of Mong Kok, we make our way to the more glamorous district of Tsim Sha Tsui on the peninsula of Kowloon. Chung King Mansions launched as a beacon of prosperity in the jet-set era of Hong Kong. The building’s fame slid into notoriety soon after, and it has lived for 60 years in the spotlight. Many Hong Kong people avoid it, given its reputed sleazy underbelly. A social scientist wrote a book about the building after conducting a 3-year study on it and the thousands of people that pass through it every day. We will talk about the building and its fascinating story. Tour itinerary and stops might differ depending on several factors such as your interests, the walking pace, and weather, etc.
    10 minutes
  • Peninsula Hotel, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong
    The Peninsula Hong Kong — or ‘The Pen’ as it is known locally — is a Hong Kong landmark. A witness to the city’s eventful history, the hotel has been serving guests in style since 1928. This beautiful art deco building holds its own dark story which will be discussed.
    10 minutes
  • Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, Hong Kong, China
    Our tour ends at the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront which offers exceptional views of the Hong Kong skyline. Here we relax and discuss the history and development of the Hong Kong skyline from the early 1800s to the present day.

We absolutely loved the tour, it gave us a really good view into local life and food. Mel was amazing guide, and did a great job to accommodate to all of the groups preferences. We tasted some really great food and also got advice what to do in the days after the tour. Well worth it and recommended

An excellent way to see (and taste!) Hong Kong! Mel was a great guide, sharing all kinds of interesting tidbits of information along the way. He was very responsive to the group’s dietary needs. It was an incredible 5 hours. Highly recommended this trip!

Mel was amazing, upbeat and knowledgeable about Hong Kong. We were so full that we just tasted the last stop. Mel even took us to our last subway stop ... I guess we looked confused, out of his way, and I'm sure he was tired. Great tour!
