Our guide Ed took us on a culinary, cultural, and sight-seeing tour of Central and Shuen Wang. The tour showcased a variety Hong Kong cuisine from long-established places, some of which have been run by a number of generations. Everything we ate was excellent! Highlights for me were the wonton noodles shop, roast meat restaurant, and preserved fruits shop. I will forever compare future consumption of wonton noodles and BBQ pork based on what I ate during this tour 😊. The tour was enhanced by stops along the way at temples, markets, and landmarks and the history of the two districts.

I had a blast today enjoying all the yummy food and interesting stories at Sham Shui Po. Even though I had been to HK for many times, but today's trip made me appreciate the generations of hardships and relationships. It made me learn about the life of the HK local people and how they helped one another through difficult times. Thank you my tour guide, Cecilia for this exclusive tour. Appreciate your professionalism to give me the most valuable experience! Did 3.5 hours just flew by! Oh my gosh.. didn't even realise that. :)

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour from start to finish. Cecilia was a great storyteller and I like what she shared with us — authentic, delicious, heartwarming dishes produced by the local community. I highly recommend this tour and would like to try the other tours next time I am back.

Sham Shu Po foodie tour was fantastic. I thought I knew ‘the po’ as a resident who adores zipping in to check out fabric, beads, and all things crafty. Wow, was I wrong. There was so much good food that I was walking by! Looking forward to my next Hong Kong Foodie Tour (Tai Po, here I come :).

Despite living in Hong Kong for many years, there were still plenty of things we discovered today thanks to our brilliant guide Ed. Almost 4 hours walking around Central and Sheung Wan, discovering little gems, listening to historic secrets and tasting Chinese specialties.

This was such a fun day! Lillian was an excellent tour guide, it was just the two of us and she was delightful company and brought me to lots of places I would never have found myself, as well as explaining their history and cultural significance. Between dishes there was plenty of history and fun facts about the different neighbourhoods we passed through. It was a great insight to Hong Kong food and culture, even for those who think they know it all!

Enjoyed this tour of our local area during COVID restrictions and almost no tourism in HK. Yammy our guide, had taken a second job with the lack of tourists - but both of us and Yammy herself enjoyed running the tour for my husband and me. All of the locals called out as we walked along - through each market stall! Terrific opportunity to see our local area (as expats) - wandering and seeing inside kitchens of places we hadn't dared to visit ! We now have many new places to eat at !! Thanks Yammy !!!

What a wonderful way to spend the afternoon with the family. Having lived in HK for a year we had tried some of these foods before but never knew why or how they fit into the local culture. It was a well thought through tour supporting local traders how produce quality food with age old traditions. A great way to engage our children in a food adventure where they could explore little side streets, cavernous food markets, taste the good stuff and hear about how food connects with the history and culture of Hong Kong.
Definitely worth doing if you are staying put this Summer!

This is a gem not only for visitors but also for expats living in Hong Kong. We took the whole family with friends and kids aged 8-12years and it was an amazing experience! A wonderful balance between great local food you’d never find by yourself and history or local anecdotes that just made everything so real and special. I look forward to trying out another route soon...

This was a fun, interesting and tasty way to spend an afternoon, finding out a lot about the history of the area as well as the food and businesses we visited. The behind the scenes insight, as presented by a local, was fantastic

What exactly is included? Is food provided or do we purchase our own? Can you provide the current price for the tour in HKD? Not sure what the price I’m being shown is displayed in. How much advance notice do you need to book? Thank you!!

Hey Chris, so the food is all included in the price. Also, if you scroll to the bottom of tripadvisor it usually shows which currency is being displayed in. I know that's a problem I've had before. No idea about advance booking though. I'd really suggest this tour though, I had an amazing time on it.

There was actually a person who was vegetarian on the tour I did. I think she indicated this when booking online as there was a vegetarian option for her at three of the places (the samples at the other places were fruit or dessert based so it wasn't a problem). I believe she confirmed that she was vegetarian at the start of the tour, so the guide could make sure she was catered for.

Hi, I'm travelling with my elderly 84 year old mum who has limited mobility, and will need a wheelchair. Can I organise a private foodie tour for 4 people which is wheelchair accessible?

Hi, contact the tour group, sham shu po tour is on the flat, but slightly crowded as there are the markets there. Some of the places might be a bit cramped but could be doable. The tour staff are very helpful so contact them direct

Hi, we are looking at taking one of the Hong Kong foodie tours with our 2 kids (ages 9 & 6). Are these tours suitable for kids?
HongKongFoodieTours
Hong Kong, China29 contributions
Hi koopsshields1,
Thank you for your question about bringing kids on our Foodie Tours. Hong Kong Foodie has brought many families with kids that age on all three of our Foodie Tours and they genuinely enjoy them. Some of the most challenging questions our Foodie Guides get are often those from children. The children also love to tell us stories of their other travel experiences and they want to share this experience with their friends in school.
We suggest parents to make their own judgement on whether their kids enjoy food or not. If they love to eat, love to hear stories and interact with strangers, they will enjoy the tour as they will participate and ask challenging questions like an adult. Some younger children aged 4 or 5 may find the walk too long. Many parents also think this is a great opportunity for children to meet locals and learn a new culture. You can check out our Facebook and Instagram to see photos of what our experiences are like. We hope to see you and your family on one of our Foodie Tours!
Regards,
Hong Kong Foodie

Please could you tell me if the food is from restaurants or street food.
I get really nervous eating street food in foreign countries

Food is from restaurants. It was all delicious.
Last part of tour the guide assists you which foods would be safe to purchase from a street venue.

Hello, I'm looking to book the Central foodie tour and was wondering if you went for the 1:30 or 2:15 tour? Any advice would be great. Thank you!

Hi Connor,
Hong Kong Foodie only offers the 1:45 pm tour on certain days. The itinerary for the two departure times is the same. Please check our calendar on our website to see if the 1:45 pm tour is available on the day you wish to take the tour.
Regards,
Hong Kong Foodie

Would anyone suggest doing one of these tours alone? I understand that it is a group activity, and i will be thrust in with others, but is it usually groups of people, or other solo travellers like myself?

Hey there! The meeting point is easy to get to. We stayed near our hotel and it took about 20 minutes. 20 minutes well worth the trip.

We are staying at the Marriott on Hong Kong Island. How far a walk is it to the starting point of your tour or your offices?
