Family Tour Itinerary
   
 

Hong KongDay One
You will land at Hong Kong's new international airport. This was Britain's last infrastructural project before handing over this dynamic commercial hub to China in 1997. Since then, despite fears to the contrary, this financial center of dizzying contemporary architecture, perched on a tiny tropical atoll in the South China Sea, has retained its potency as the major gateway to doing business in China.

[Optional - You will be met off the jet bridge and whisked through the airport's Diplomatic Channel. No waiting in line for customs and immigration!]

After transferring to your beautiful hotel, if there is time you might like us to book you a treatment at the hotel's lovely spa. This evening, you may enjoy one of our recommended restaurants for your evening repast.


Day Two
We usually leave the time free for you to explore Hong Kong on your own. Some will wish to dash to one of the famously efficient Bombay tailors for a suit. Others will saunter along Hollywood road to peruse the antique shops. Many will walk the second floor shopping mall walkways of Hong Kong amazed that they are so well-linked and somewhat shocked that any one place can justify so many luxury brand stores. Should any traveler require more customized services in Hong Kong, such as a specialist in jade or ceramics, please see some of the options below.

[Optional - If you're interested in history, we can arrange for a private walking tour of the island with a journalist who will give you greater insight into the history of this fascinating city.]

[Optional - We can arrange for a helicopter tour of the city including the dizzying Hong Kong skyline as well as the waters off Repulse Bay.]

[Optional - Since shopping is so much a part of Hong Kong's allure, why not invite a professional shopper, to enrich your journey there. With many years experience helping clients choose from a wide gamut of items from pearls and tailoring through to watches and antiques, she will orient you within her trusted network of stores in Hong Kong.]

[Optional Additionally, if you are interested in making a significant purchase of a Chinese antique, we have good connections with Sotheby's in Hong Kong and can arrange introductions to private collections and top tier dealers.]

[Optional - For those of you who are into cooking, we can arrange for a private dimsum making lesson. This will be followed by one of the best dimsum lunches you've tasted!]

[Optional - One of China's most ancient traditions is the art of fortune telling. Why not take the famous Peninsula afternoon tea with an I-ching Master who will tell you your destiny!]
