Ashley customized a hybrid tour to fit my needs and interests. She made multiple adjustments to our plan in real time that other guides who keep to a script would not. Throughout the tour Ashley demonstrated vast knowledge of the history, food, and culture of her beloved Hong Kong. She truly loves sharing her knowledge and is a fun guide. She is a sincere, kind and hospitable person who truly loves her job. Highly recommend!!!

We had an absolutely wonderful tour of Hong Kong with Ashley as our guide. From start to finish, she was knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly attentive to our interests. Ashley brought the city to life with her deep understanding of Hong Kong’s history, culture, and hidden gems that we never would have discovered on our own. We especially loved the Chi Lin Nunnery! Her pacing was perfect—never rushed, yet we saw and experienced so much. She was also fantastic at answering questions and tailoring the experience to what we enjoyed most. Beyond her expertise, Ashley’s warm personality and enthusiasm made the day truly special. If you’re planning a tour of Hong Kong, we cannot recommend Ashley highly enough. She turned a great trip into an unforgettable experience! Ginger and Ed

Ashley is a consummate professional who generously shared her love and vast knowledge of Hong Kong. She packed an incredible amount of history and information into our tour, skillfully weaving the events and culture of many centuries years into a fascinating tapestry. She was responsive to our questions and walking pace and tailored the day to our particular interests and timetable. After our day was over, she followed up with an email with details about all the places we visited as well as an additional email with ideas on things we could see and do for the rest of our stay. Ashley truly went the extra mile! We wholeheartedly recommend Ashley to anyone who is headed to Hong Kong.
