My Guests on a Private Tour of Hong Kong - Volume 2

What can I say (well I have said it so many times!) Hong Kong is my home…. I have lived in Hong Kong for 52 years, since 1972 when Hong Kong really was considered the Pearl of the Orient.

With social media and easy access to the web there is probably a million articles about Hong Kong and I have written extensively on the subject of “hidden gems and secret spots” in Hong Kong, those tired old cliches. Trust me there are no hidden gems and secret spots in this social media age, everyone has been there, done that and posted the images and video’s on Instagram.

… and yes images on Instagram in particular are heavily edited with filters giving them a dream like quality which bears no resemblance to reality and you will see 2 million versions of the same image!

To make Hong Kong come alive and to really immerse yourself into Hong Kong culture you need to book a private tour of Hong Kong or what I call the Hong Kong experience, there is simply no substitute for seeing Hong Kong with a top notch guide, story telling is a gift and they have it.

Watching You Tube video’s and downloading travel apps will not give you a better experience, you will probably have a limited amount of time in Hong Kong and the biggest mistake that visitors make when coming to Hong Kong is assuming that their smart phone with Google apps and transport apps will solve their transportation issues, they do not, you need a long term resident who does private tours for a living to maximise your time and yes, bring Hong Kong alive by putting everything in to context.

On these images I mention the location the image was taken.

….. oh and one final point, looking at images is one thing, actually seeing it with your own eyes and listening to the explanation of what you are seeing cannot be beat! please visit Hong Kong - Pearl of the Orient

If I had any followers on Instagram who liked views rather than my car images then this would be a classic, Mum, Dad and 4 kids aged from 12 - 22 from England, perfect weather, the planets aligned as they do on most days at the Peak.

This rather sums up Jamie’s spot at the Peak.
