Hi there, This is Victor, greetings from Hong Kong! I'm always here if you want to know more about the other side of Hong Kong! As long as you’re curious, you will find that Hong Kong is a unique city in different aspects. You may not know, Hong Kong has at least 300 million years history and has been active for the living of people for at least few hundred years! Luckily, the evidence of the above history still exists in today’s Hong Kong and it does not take you a long day journey to get there! I can show you one by one if you have interests in our culture and history. If you love hiking, I also share the same hobby with you! As you may not know too, 40% of Hong Kong are reserved as country parks since 1970s. A surprising statistic, right? This can also prove that Hong Kong is not only a city with tons of crowded buildings, but also various astonishing nature views. But before knowing comprehensively about Hong Kong, how could it be done without our basic need – food? In Hong Kong, you don’t have to go to chain stores anymore as you may do in your hometown, lots of local food which is more than delicious are everywhere. If you want, I can show you the real delicious food here! The most important thing is, I lived in Sweden and Mexico for a period and travel as a backpacker a lot. I know what an explorer want in their journey, just come and I’ll try my best to show you more than you expected!

“Can't recommend Vivi enough!”

We requested Vivi to take us on a shopping trip to the wholesale fabric markets in Dongmen, China. She had never done a tour there but she researched where to go and which were the best malls for the fabrics we needed. She was indispensable for dealing with the shop holders and instrumental in getting them to take us seriously. We had a full on day and managed to get all the fabrics we needed. Vivi was patient and cheerful and so nice all day. she stayed with us the whole time until we were back at the entrance to the train station at Luohu. I highly recommend Vivi if you need a guide for Shenzen or that area. * * * * * Judy & Halle from Australia
