Luxury Holidays to Hong Kong
Hong Kong is the ultimate city break, offering a dynamic mix of designer shopping, lively street markets, breathtaking skyline, world-class dim sum, and vibrant hidden bars. Situated on China's southern coast, this cosmopolitan hub effortlessly blends cultural diversity with remnants of its fascinating British heritage.
Why choose a Luxury holiday to Hong Kong
One of the most exciting, fast-paced cities in Asia, this densely populated region is made up of Hong Kong Island, 263 smaller islands, the Kowloon Peninsula, and the area to the north, by the Chinese border, the New Territories.
The New Territories offer ancient walled villages, wetlands teeming with birdlife, unspoiled country parks, stunning coastline and significant cultural sites. Go hiking, camping or surfing in this part of Hong Kong and you’ll feel a million miles away from the big city.
The outlying islands of Lantau, Cheung Chau and Lamma, are home to villages and traditional fishermen. Island hopping between them on the regular ferries makes for a delightful day trip.
Hong Kong Island is the main city centre and houses the territory’s vibrant business district. It’s also where you can find shopping, lively night markets, upscale designer boutiques, and an intoxicating blend of Michelin-starred or street food dining. Boat trips are also one of Hong Kong’s highlights. Board a designer yacht or traditional junk boat on the glittering harbour, or try water skiing, wakeboarding or paddling.
