Hey there, I'm Ashley - your go-to gal for an unforgettable tour of Hong Kong! As a born and raised local, I know this city like the back of my chopsticks. With a background in food and culture journalism, I'm your girl for all things Hong Kong cuisine, history and traditions. But enough about me, let's talk about you! As a caring and empathetic guide, I'll take the time to understand your interests and preferences to create a tailor-made tour that's perfect for you. Whether you're a foodie, history buff, adventurer, or all of the above, I've got you covered. As a passionate storyteller, I'll bring Hong Kong's sights and sounds to life with fascinating tales about the city's rich cultural tapestry. So, are you ready to discover the real Hong Kong with me? Let's embark on a journey filled with good vibes, unforgettable memories, and of course, lots of delicious food!

Overview of your Hong Kong tour

See the best of Macau and go deep down to the food, culture, and history of the city in one day! If you'd like to visit a nearby city during your Hong Kong trip, Macau is one of the best options. While Macau had been a bright Portuguese trade spot for over several centuries, it's been sharing a deep connection with Hong Kong for the past two hundred years, yet so different with its unique charms in history. In my years of writing as a food and culture journalist, I've always been fascinated by the distinct paths how Macau developed and preserved its unique culture. In this excursion, I'd love to share with you the old and new of Macau. We will wander through old streets mixed of colonial architecture and old southern Chinese houses, to the new mesmerising casino buildings in Taipa where some people calls it a "Vegas 2. 0". I shall also bring you to some of my favourite places in Macau, have a good taste of flavourful "Macanese" cuisine, and sample local snacks and treats along the way!

“Private Macau Excursion from HK: Experience the Best of Macau in 1 Day” Tour on Dec 9th, 2025 It would be a long review if we put everything we have been guided by and witnessed with Ashley. We could say that she is the perfect tour guide for any of her tours. You could customize your plan with her and not only it’ll be perfectly executed but also with such care and love! Ashley knows her routes like the back of her hand, guides you to best places and spots for sightseeing and for taking pictures too. If you are food lover then it’s another excellent reason to book the tour with her. It’s wonderful to taste the Portuguese pastries then having lunch with the authentic Macanese foods in Macau and finally to end the day of having diner with her in HK at the place she picked out for us to discover. What a memorable day and we won the friend lottery too! BFF Thao & Thu Cheers from Canada!

If you are going to Hong Kong you need Ashley, She was fantastic in every way. Hong Kong is like a maze and she got us into all the nooks and crannies. She was informative helpful and flexible with all our preferences. She was an excellent communicator and had some great suggestions on how to accommodate the things we wanted to do within the time frame we had. Of course she knows food and we had some incredible culinary experiences with her. We spent 4 incredible days with her in Hong Kong. We highly recommend her

This was our second tour this week with Ashley. Again, a total delight. Macau is densely populated and the crowds can be overwhelming, but Ashley took us to lovely, quiet spots away from the crowds. Places that are right for a romantic couple to enjoy. We often had such great conversations that we didn't always see everything that Ashley had planned for us. That was no problem because I was after an experience and a connection with a place, not just check boxes of things to see.

Your Hong Kong tour itinerary

* Ride along the longest bridge in the world - through HZM Bridge from Hong Kong to Macau * Get a panoramic perspective of Macau from a vantage point - a 17th-century colonial military fort, chapel, and lighthouse complex, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Macau. * Experience an interesting gondola lift above beautiful gardens. * Taste exceptional Macau Portuguese meal in one of my favorite local restaurants where you don't see many tourists. * Walk through St. Anthony's Parish and visit some of the must-see attractions, while we stop for yum local snacks, desserts, and drinks all along the way. * I don't take my guest to gamble but we can visit the new casino area where it's sometime called the "Vagas 2. 0". * After the tour, we shall take a first class jet boat back to Hong Kong * Flexible itinerary - Macau definitely has a lot more be explored. We will discuss more of your preference before the trip, and I shall personalize the itinerary for you.
