There's a story behind every place we step into, every person we meet, and every culture we experience. We're the locals in Hong Kong, sharing our Hong Kong stories with you. Hong Kong Free Tours is about connecting you with locals and visiting our home with a local perspective. Our walking tours focus on what matters to us as Hong Kongers, rather than just guiding you through attractions.

Tour description

Why Walk With Us?
We connect the dots between skyline and everyday life. You’ll leave understanding how politics, architecture and incense coils all tell the same story: a city forever rewriting its destiny. 🇭🇰 🏙️ 📖

Central Financial District: Where Colonial Past Meets Global Future
Step into Central’s canyon of power, where Victorian courthouses stand shoulder-to-shoulder with futuristic banks. Your guide will share personal family stories of navigating Hong Kong’s changes while decoding how "One Country, Two Systems" plays out daily. 👤 💂‍♂️🏦

Old Town Central: The City That Never Stops Transforming
Ride the world’s longest outdoor escalator through urban evolution – from Hollywood Road’s art-filled alleys to Man Mo Temple’s smoky halls. Here, 160-year-old traditions and modern life peacefully coexist. 🛗 ☯️ 🏮

This is a tip-based walking tour led by our passionate locals. ❤️ 👣
