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.

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.

I have always been a lover of travel, family holidays as a child sparked my love of seeing the world. I was born in England, moving to New Zealand with my family at the age of six. Drawn to the outdoors and the natural beauty of the world, I enjoy nothing more than exploring new landscapes, immersing myself in local living or being a major tourist. Whether that’s wondering narrow streets, exploring a big city or lounging on a sun-soaked beach.

In addition to my knowledge of travel, I'm currently training to become a Contiki champ with a passion for adventure and a love of meeting new people, I am eager to help you plan your own exciting Contiki, Top Deck, G-adventures or Intrepid tour and create unforgettable memories. 

I was fortunate enough to be sent to Disneyland California and loved every aspect of its adrenaline packed adventure. It is an unforgettable trip and I cant wait to help others book their magical Disney holidays. 

With a passion for adventure and a keen eye for detail, I’m always on the lookout for hidden gems, unique experiences and trending destinations. Whether you're looking for a thrill-seeking adventure or a peaceful escape into nature, I have the drive to help you plan the trip of a lifetime.
