Jamie’s personal recommendations for the very best Private Tour Companies and Tour Guides that Hong Kong has to offer.
There is in Hong Kong an informal affiliation of Private Tour Guides, we call it :
The Hong Kong Private Guides Society
All of us are at the top of our game with the Tripadvisor reviews to back us up, quite a few of us have been around for 10 years or more doing Private Tours of Hong Kong but one thing is clear, we are all totally passionate about Hong Kong and we really know our stuff.
We formed the Group in early 2014 with the aim of improving existing high standards and sharing information, ideas and market intelligence, we want Guests who visit this fabulous city, Hong Kong to have the very best experience.
Entry to our group is by invitation only.
I always recommend you contact my friends directly through their websites and not through companies like Viator, Get Your Guide, Klook and such.
i know the Tour Industry in Hong Kong, I was a pioneer of Private Tours in Hong Kong, launching my business in 2010 and doing my first tour on April 4th 2011.
I completed 2,324 private tours in Hong Kong serving 6,000+ guests until Covid 19 closed down Hong Kong in January 2020 for 3 full years, I have since retired from doing tours and spend my time doing Hong Kong research, working as a consultant, offering unique Hong Kong experiences and doing my photography.
I also spend a significant portion of my day doing research in the fields of tours, travel and tourism and share this on a daily basis with my friends.
I was considered one of the very best private tour guides in Asia and was totally committed to offering my guests the best possible experience when they visited Hong Kong and worked (and continue to work) very closely with a select group of like minded tour companies with a similar mindset.

As I have retired from doing Private Walking Tours, I am now dedicating my time and expertise to supporting my very tight-knit group of friends as they continue to develop their tour business. I wholeheartedly recommend booking a tour of Hong Kong with any of them; each member of the “team” is incredibly talented, has charisma in abundance and are passionate about showcasing the beauty and culture of Hong Kong - Pearl of the Orient.
When I started researching private tours in Hong Kong in 2010 there was only one actual company offering a private tour (sort of) and one chap who also offered them with one problem, he was an ex Lonely Planet Editor and lived in Japan not Hong Kong - essentially he traded on the Lonely Planet name and the Hong Kong Tours were conducted by a “Local” guide
The market was dominated by what we call the Coach Tour Companies, some of them had been running tours for over 50 years without changing the tour itinerary (which included the dreaded jewellery factory stop) and they all had one thing in common, it was a lousy experience.
Self explanatory, an all too common experience for those that take coach tours and for me what is worse is that this experience has not changed in decades, with some tweaking and an overhaul it could be a much, much better experience and to think that the Hong Kong Government believes that this is the only type of tour that visitors take when they come to Hong Kong, in a nutshell this is what happens when you have no competition and Government Protection.
…. so, sensing a big opportunity for private tours I jumped in with eyes wide open and both feet and shortly thereafter others followed.
I was always a bit of an information | ideas junkie and a big believer in healthy competition and started contacting “the competition” to see how we could work together.
Collaboratively, we established a flourishing community of very diverse individuals who share similar values, fostering a culture of healthy competition and continuous growth. Our commitment, forged through mutual respect and a shared vision, enabled us to willingly share and exchange innovative ideas, create, plan and organize tours and experiences, pass on tours we could not handle and worked together towards providing unparalleled and immersive experiences in Hong Kong, consistently aiming for excellence.
We all dislike mediocrity intensely, especially when it comes to the all-too-common experience of researching and booking a tour in Hong Kong. It's frustrating to encounter uninspired offerings and subpar services when you're eager to have the best possible experience in Hong Kong.
Why should I book a private tour of Hong Kong?
In a nutshell, when you choose a private tour, you get freedom and flexibility with the itinerary. You can take your time, going at your own pace, knowing that you are experiencing something exclusive. The company you choose from my list is dedicated to providing special care, assistance and personal attention that goes without saying, ensuring that you have everything you need for an exceptional tour. Additionally, you benefit from superior local knowledge and expertise, enhancing every aspect of your private tour experience in Hong Kong.
Please feel free to check out all the Tripadvisor reviews for all of my friends, they are amazing, links to their reviews are on their websites.
Each of us carved out our own niche, encompassing private tours, walking tours, group tours, food tours, car tours, boat and helicopter charters, and even free tours.

Tours are available primarily in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, French, German, Spanish etc. and generally the company owners are heavily involved in leading tours and all are totally committed to giving a premium quality experience.
Hong Kong has many tour companies, regrettably, a significant number of them fall far short of delivering exceptional service. Many average tour companies and guides opt for listing on Online Travel Agency websites ( OTA’s) like Viator, Tripadvisor, Tours by Locals, With Locals, Get your Guide, Klook and such, seeking quick business at discounted rates. Whilst there's nothing inherently wrong with this approach, my friends, who are very experienced expert guides, would much prefer direct contact through their websites.
I absolutely recommend you contact them directly, you will immediately realise that they offer a superior product and they are dedicated to providing you with an unforgettable, high-quality experience when you visit Hong Kong.
Should you require further details, do not hesitate to contact me directly.
