My tour with Wing was amazing.
She is extremely knowledgeable and there wasn't a single question I had that she didn't have a full answer to - from Chinese medicine to the punk rock scene in northern China...
She was very charming and took me around the neighborhood she grew up in, visiting local eateries and chatting with all the store owners.
We tried many different things to eat and she explained the story behind every dish - she really knows her stuff when it comes to recipes, ingredients and preparation.
Thanks for a magical evening!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!Wonderful tour with Wing Wing

I booked the weird food tour with Wing Wing as we were looking to film lesser known Chinese dishes for my TV show 'Anne's Kitchen'. Wing Wing was an absolute darling! Friendly, funny and very knowledgeable about the food. She took us to hidden places in the area that she grew up in and had lots of stories to tell. A perfect guide! I will definitely book another tour with Wing Wing next time I'm in Hong Kong!Great time with Wing Wing

We had contact with Win Wing before. We were able to discuss with her what we really wanted to get to know. She showed us typical restaurants and explained everything we wanted to know and try. If you want to learn a lot about Hong Kong, the people and food: book a tour with Wing Wing!Highly recommended!

My friend and I had a blast during this tour :)) Tried whatever we were brave to try, super exotic flavours and some surprisingly very delicious! It was definitely interesting experience and also very educational as Wing explained about the benefits to your body of the dishes we are tasting. We also learnt a lot about traditional Chinese kitchen. P.s the host is very flexible with the menu so if you want to try something even more exotic that is planned or maybe go with the safer option Wing is very accommodating :) Thank you for the nice evening!Adventurous and fun tour

My first day in Hong Kong I decided to do a solo tour with Wing Wing, and it did not disappoint. The mix of history, different landmark sites, and personal stories kept the tour fresh and exciting. Wing Wing also provided me with food and trip tips that I used in the following days in Hong Kong. Would recommend! Amazing first day in Hong Kong

Wing Wing, our fantastic tour guide, took us on an incredible walking tour of Hong Kong. We saw everything from ancient temples to modern skyscrapers, and learned so many interesting facts along the way.
Wing Wing knows everything about Hong Kong. She showed us hidden gems, as well as the Instagram hit spots and recommended delicious local food, and even told us about her mother and her old sayings and beliefs.
We visited an ancient temple, a fascinating souvenir shop, walked through markets, and got to experience the city's vibrant culture first-hand.
The walking tour was pretty tiring, but it was totally worth it. Wing Wing's enthusiasm was contagious, and she made the whole experience so much fun. If you're planning a trip to Hong Kong, I highly recommend booking a tour with Wing Wing. She's the best!Wing Wing: Amazing Hong Kong Tour Guide!

I had a really great time on my walking tour with Wing Wing who did an awesome job at showing me the sights of central Hong Kong, whilst making it really interesting and super fun. I loved trying wonton soup which was delicious and Wing Wing’s help finding a small jade souvenir to take back to NZ for my teenage children, who were thrilled. If you have any time, I 100% recommend you contact Wing Wing and organising something. Wing Wing was awesome

Wing Wing is a very personable and friendly guide. I did two tours with her in one day (in March) and despite her having to put up with me being late for both she was very patient and understanding! She was also willing to speak about her personal experience of growing up in Hong Kong which was fascinating. Wing Wing really made an effort to make the tours enjoyable, so don't hesitate to book with her.Great tour guide

Many thanks to Wing Wing for the informative Hong Kong city tour.
I had a three-hour tour with Wing Wing. The tour was fantastic. I've done a lot of tours in a lot of cities, but with Ms. Wing Wing it was something very special. I learned so much about the culture and the city in those three hours. I love this city thanks to Wang Wang. I really enjoyed my time with Wing Wing. She told me a lot about life in Hong Kong, showed me a lot of interesting places and told me a lot of interesting stories. Just a massive 10 points. I can really recommend Ms. Wang Wang to everyone.10++++++++ points

Wing Wing was very knowledgeable about Tai-O, having been there as a child and adult. She knew some of the locals, and where to get yummy treats. She was very personable and fun to share a half day with. I usually don’t do reviews, but she earned one. Thank you!

Wing Wing was the perfect guide for me and my mother. With just 2 days in Hong Kong, it was so good to have the tour with Wing Wing. We walked over 15,000 steps and saw so much of the city! Wing Wing’s English is good and she told us many stories about the city she grew up in and knows so well. I’d do it again for another day if we had the time. Your wing woman in hong kong

I booked the tour „Taste of Hongkong“ with street-market and street food experience and my guide was Wing Wing. I had a really good time and so nice tastings. Even though I had touched the area around Tempel Street before, it gave me a complete new view, so many more details and of course great street foot experience, which I would never had experienced on my own. Strolling through the busy streets with Wing Wing was a real pleasure. She explained the best food, the best spots in the area, and I had a really good time. The task 2 1/2 hour and it felt like it was over in no time, because it was so entertaining and delightful. Apart from that, Wing Wing is a very amiable, knowledgeable and sympathic person, with whom I really liked to spend time. She told me so much about the New Year’s tradition, about Hong Kong, about how to have a good time. Great experience, thank you so much!Valuable Experience „A Taste of Hongkong“

Do not hesitate! I had a pleasure to spend 3 hours with Wing Wing and walk around central part of Hong Kong while listening interesting stories, cultural facts and discovering corners of the city. If you are a solo travel like me, and need firstly some insight prior discovering city on your own - this is a great start.

We booked Hidden Gems of Hong Kong with Wing Wing.
From the moment we met Wing Wing she was so friendly and welcoming.
We did not know what to expect but for us it was a relaxed and nice paced tour. It was not long before we chatted like friends and Wing Wing answered all our questions.
Wing Wing is very enthusiastic about the tour and the content and we felt she really wanted us to have a great time.
At the end she recommended a restaurant for us to have lunch and told Ushaw and what to order.
I woukd highly recommend booking a tour with Wing Wing. Learning about Hong Kong history & culture

We truly felt at home as she showed us around her home town and places she frequently visited. We loved trying different types of dim sum and seeing a variety of shops. Because of the protest in Hong Kong, Wing Wing tried to contact us before the tour. She kept us update and make sure we are safe. We appreciate her help and kindness. This tour was amazing and we highly recommend seeing Hong Kong with Wing Wing as your knowledgeable and friendly guide!Wing Wing was an amazing tour guide/host!

My wife and daughter spent 3 hours with Wing Wing a couple days ago.
They had a fantastic time and we’re so happy when they came back.
Wing Wing showed them so many cool places and my wife said that these were places they never would’ve found on their own.
I will tell you this .... Wing Wing exceeded our expectations in every way.
Thank you Wing Wing!Fantastic

I had four days in Hong Kong and wanted a local to assist me on a night food tasting tour of the Mong Kok neighborhood. Wing Wing was perfect. We met at 6:30 pm on the Sunday evening of the first huge Hong Kong demonstration against the proposed extradition law. Wing Wing came directly from the demonstration and we spent a good portion of the evening discussing local politics and the mood of Hong Kong residents. This is exactly what I want in a local guide. She ensured the evening a wonderful experience with great conversation and insights. The food we sampled was far from secondary and I felt like a local out for the evening with a friend. We ate like locals do, sampling many things, from stinky tofu to sticky buns to sweet potato soup among other things. We walked through the Ladies Market, passed scores of Philippine housekeepers out for their weekly holiday and ogled groups of pet stores, sneaker stores, clothing stores and restaurants. We talked about Hong Kong history, neighborhoods and present day life. She pointed out favorite restaurants, vibrant neon signage and architecture. We had a blast. I'll be sure to look her up when I return.Wing Wing was awesome

We had a very enjoyable experience with Wing Wing, she is fun and very easy going. She walked us through the winding streets and night markets of Kowloon, stopping at various places to experience very tasty food and explain the local culture.

I had a cool food tour with Wing. She took me to try a variety of foods including local food shops that don't have many tourists. It was great trying out all the different foods and you will leave full by the end. Wing gives you a chance to try out different foods that you may not normally eat as they are more local. She even ended the tour by showing me a great viewpoint in the city that I can check out. I would highly recommend her for a tour.Fun Food Tour

After some crazy challenges related to our travel to Hong Kong, Wing Wing proved to be very accommodating. We had limited time and wanted to get the most out of our quick trip. We really got a good taste of how the old and new have come to coexist and would have struggled to to find some of the unique finds on our own.Very accommodating

Wing Wing was our fantastic guide for a few hours to visit Tai O fishing village on the far western tip of Lantau Island in Hong Kong. She met us right on time at Tung Chung MTR station. There was some kind of important festival that day, so the line-up for the bus to Tai O was crazily long so Wing Wing quickly knew how to get there a different way via 2 buses. Not only was seeing Tai O fascinating (you feel like you're in a traditional village from some bygone era a million miles away from frenetic Hong Kong), Wing Wing made it a bit of food tour as well. We sampled many traditional dishes which were exotic, deelish and the kinds of things we wouldn't have been brave enough to try on our own. Her English is exceptional and she gives you great insights to life today in Hong Kong. Thanks for a great day, Wing Wing!Wing Wing: awesome great guide for Tai O

Wing Wing was a pleasure to be with the entire time. Not only did she bring her unique style and effervescent personality to the walk but she peppered the entire walk with her stories, memories and personal experiences.
Wing Wing was great to communicate with and easygoing. She goes out of her way to make sure that you as a tourist enjoy the small window of three hours and tailor makes the walk to show you the best places in HK. Would recommend her to anyone planning to come to HK and spend a few hours with a local! The local to experience with!!

Wing Wing is a nice guide and were very friendly from the beginning on. She has created a very nice tour and knows a lot of residents of tai o. So it is very easy to hear some traditional stories and have contact to the People. We tried a lot of Things like grilled dired squid or the best hong kong waffels I ever had...made on a coal bbq. She always took the time to describe everything to us...especially on the dry market.
This tour is especially good if you want to see some traditional sides of Hong Kong. Also she knows the times to be there before the tourists come. We were almost alone at the beginning and had a really great look over a piece of nice nature in the middle of hong kong.Nice view over tradition life in Hong Kong

Wing WIng was our host. Such a sweet person. We asked if she could meet us at the hotel as we only arrived that day and that was not a problem for her at all. Showed us around and helped us get our bearings. Needed to but swim suit and she took us to the right place, life saver!!!!!
Would recommend a tour with her.Interesting

Wing Wing is very friendly and knowledgable. She went beyond her duties to make sure our group visited places we planed to. She gave us advise and even show us, on how to shop and eat that match our budget and taste buds.
I would have her guide me again if I go to Hong Kong.
Highly recommend for everyone who would traveling in East or SouthEast Asia region, especially first timer. Best local food tour guide!

We were so fortunate to have spent a customized full day with Wing Wing in January of 2019, and it was her birthday. Wing Wing was so sweet to work on her special day as that's the only day we had available. I hope we made it special for her.
Our day started with visit to Tao O Village. Wing Wing really knows the locals and the village secrets there. She introduced us to an 85 year old topiary artist and we were able to peek into his rear garden as well as the hundreds of topiary. We then stopped to discuss teas and medicinal items with a wise and wizened shop keeper. Wing wing also showed us how fish paste is dried in the sun. We also nibbled on some street snacks and walked through the local market and then hopped on a short boat tour.
We then had lunch at a stilt-house restaurant which was one of our favorite meals of the trip. We are one Thai chef, one American chef and myself so we really know our food.
Wing Wing then took us for a stop at Big Buddha being that Tao O Village is so close to this magnificent site. There are also temples to visit at the site and were happy to have Wing Wing's expertise.
Finally we all took the metro back to Hong Kong Island and Wing Wing took us to several restaurants where she ordered and we all ate! Dinner and lunch were paid on our own but both meals were very inexpensive at about $15USD PP. She even made a reservation for us to enjoy the night skyline illumination show after dinner.
Before our trip, Wing Wing was so responsive to all of my questions and we communicated easily via WhatsApp and the Withlocals App. After our day together she also checked to make sure we got back to our hotel and called the next day to see if we needed any reservations made. While we were together she made reservations for us for dim sum and also at a wonderful Peking duck restaurant.
Do not hesitate to reserve the Tao O Village tour, the foodie street tour or, as we did, a combination of both. You're in for a real treat!The Traditional Side of HK: Tai O Village Tour
