day 1Join trip in Hong Kong

Our tour starts today in Hong Kong, where East meets West. Known for its glittering skyline and rich heritage, Hong Kong is where ancient culture and modern city life live in harmony. For those arriving in time, our tour leader plans to meet you in the hotel reception at 6.30pm for a welcome meeting, followed by the opportunity to meet your fellow travellers over dinner (not included). There are no other activities planned today, so you're free to arrive in Hong Kong at any time. If you'd like an airport transfer today, you'll need to arrive into Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), which is a 40-minute drive from our hotel. If you miss the welcome meeting, your tour leader will inform you of any essential information as soon as you catch up at 9am on day 2. There's plenty to see and do in Hong Kong. If you'd like to visit the Tian Tan Buddha (Big Buddha) on Lantau Island, or embark on one of the many hikes surrounding the city, we recommend booking an additional night before your tour starts. If your flight arrives earlier in the day, the options are endless, but you could take the underground to the waterfront of Victoria Harbour, and then on to Temple Street Night Market in Kowloon.
