Hong Kong

Sky-high vibes, street-level soul


Where temples meet towers and flavours never sleep

In Hong Kong, it feels like any combination of anything is possible – modern skylines tower over ancient temples, Michelin-starred restaurants sit beside steaming street food stalls, and every street and alley hums with life.

Take the tram up to Victoria Peak for panoramic views of one of the world’s most glittering harbours, ride a traditional junk boat at sunset, or hop on the Star Ferry and see the city the local way – from the water.

You’ll never go hungry here. From teahouse dim sum to roast goose, pineapple buns and silky milk tea, the flavours of Hong Kong are everywhere and impossible to resist.

And despite the city’s reputation for neon lights and skyscrapers, there’s calm too – hike lush trails, discover hidden beaches, or soak up the serenity of mountaintop temples just beyond the urban rush.

Whether you’re shopping in vibrant night markets, exploring Kowloon’s buzzing art scene or sipping rooftop cocktails under the stars, Hong Kong will keep you coming back for more.

Chat to our Hong Kong specialists and plan your unforgettable city escape.

Flight time

The flight from Auckland to Hong Kong takes roughly 11 hours nonstop but no matter what time you arrive, this country is always ready with good food and great times.

Best time to go

For sightseeing and exploring Hong Kong’s neighbourhoods and islands, the best time to visit is autumn (late September to early November). Spring (March to early May) is also pleasant, despite the intermittent downpours.

Time difference

Hong Kong is between 4 and 5 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving here, so it might take you a couple of days to get used to it.

Having spent the last 30 years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!

Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...

I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the traveller.

My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to sharing my travel stories along the way.

I look forward to working with you..

You know how some people collect handbags or shoes, well I have a love of collecting passport stamps! I developed a bit of a passion for adventure travel since working in the States at a summer camp in my early 20’s. I have travelled to over 40 countries, doing everything from eating scorpions in China, snorkelling the Silfra fissure in Iceland, to skydiving in Namibia.
