Dazzling cityscape of Hong Kong plus historical treasures of Macau

Explore Hong Kong and Macau with Asia Odyssey Travel for 4 days!

This 4-day tour is made for travelers who love a good contrast: Hong Kong's electric city jungle versus Macau's slow-paced colonial streets. Ride the Star Ferry beneath the skyscrapers, take the Peak Tram for skyline views, then hop a high-speed ferry to Macau's UNESCO-listed ruins and ancient temples. From Victoria Peak to the Ruins of St. Paul, you'll hit the highlights without the rush.

We handle all the logistics - ferry tickets, airport transfers, and guided tours—while leaving you free time to hunt down your own favorite dim sum or stumble upon hidden street art.

Itinerary Day by Day

Day 1 Hong Kong Arrival | Pick-up & Transfer to Hotel

Néih hóu! Hong Kong is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city with a unique blend of Eastern and Western cultures. It is a global financial center, a major tourist destination, and a foodie's heaven. Upon arrival in Hong Kong, our team will meet you there and escort you to your hotel. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at your own leisure.

Getting Here

Hong Kong is easy to reach. Fly direct from most major cities—Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, or international hubs across Asia. The high-speed train also connects Hong Kong with Guangzhou (1 hour), Shenzhen (30 minutes), Guilin (3.5 hours), and Kunming (7.5 hours).

Free Time Ideas:

Spend your afternoon exploring Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple and Nan Lian Garden at your own pace. These spots give you a close look at Hong Kong’s rich cultural and natural beauty. You can also stroll along the Avenue of Stars to enjoy sweeping views of Victoria Harbor and Hong Kong Island’s towering skyscrapers.

If your schedule allows, be sure to catch the mesmerizing “A Symphony of Lights” show at 20:00. This enchanting audio-visual display lights up the whole Hong Kong skyline, making it an unforgettable sensory feast for every traveler.

Day 2 Hong Kong Classic City Tour | Star Ferry, Victoria Peak, Repulse Bay, Aberdeen Fishing Village

Today, you will enjoy a half-day guided tour (09:00-13:30, about 4.5 hours) with us to explore the stunning city skyline, the beautiful Victoria Harbour, the traditional way of life, and the beach scenery.

In the morning, your guide will meet you in the hotel lobby between 08:50 and 09:00. It's time to enjoy your half-day trip in Hong Kong and explore the stunning skylines from a different perspective.

Start by taking the famous Star Ferry at Tsim Sha Tsui Pier and cross Victoria Harbour between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon in just 7 minutes. The Star Ferry, a historic ferry service operating in Hong Kong since 1888, offers breathtaking views of the iconic skyline and Victoria Harbor. Disembark at Central Star Ferry Pier.

After that, pay a visit to the highest point of Hong Kong Island - Victoria Peak (about 552 meters), also known as the Peak, where you can enjoy stunning views of the city skyline from another perspective. You will take the famous Peak Tram, which has been in operation for more than 130 years, and journey through the verdant woods to explore some hidden old buildings that were left behind from old Hong Kong.

Once you reach the Peak, make sure to visit the Sky Terrace 428 - an observation deck that offers 360-degree views of the breathtaking Hong Kong skyline and beautiful harbor. Seize this rare opportunity to capture some amazing photos from the top.

Later, drive about 30 minutes from the Peak to the Aberdeen Fishing Village, where you will experience a very interesting contrast and change of pace from the Hong Kong business district and Kowloon. Aberdeen is a historic fishing village located in the Southern District of Hong Kong Island. It is one of the oldest and most traditional fishing villages in Hong Kong.

Climb aboard a traditional sampan and glide through Aberdeen's sheltered harbour. You'll see fishing junks and floating seafood restaurants—homes to generations of boat people who still live on the water. Stop by the Aberdeen Wholesale Fish Market to see the day's catch brought in. If time allows, walk along the Aberdeen Promenade for views of the harbour and the green hills beyond.

From Aberdeen, head south to Repulse Bay - one of Hong Kong's most famous beaches. Soft sand, calm water, and a break from the city noise. Swim, sunbathe, or just sit and watch the waves.

Weather Alternative

If the weather doesn't cooperate for the beach, we'll take you to Stanley Market  instead. Browse stalls selling souvenirs, clothes, and unique finds. Grab a coffee or a cold beer at a seaside café and watch the crowds go by.

Upon concluding the tour, you will be accompanied back to your hotel.

i Evening Free Time Ideas

If you're up for more after the tour, head to Temple Street Night Market or Ladies' Market. Both are lively, colorful, and packed with stalls selling clothes, accessories, souvenirs, and local knick-knacks.

Kowloon's streets come alive at night - neon signs, sizzling food stalls, and crowds moving at a steady pace. Grab some street food along the way: try curry fish balls, egg waffles, or skewers fresh off the grill. If you prefer sitting down, find a traditional Cantonese restaurant and order a few classics - roast goose, wonton noodles, or steamed shrimp dumplings.

Day 3 Macau Day Tour from Hong Kong by Ferry

If you have already explored Hong Kong and are looking to venture further, consider taking a day tour from Hong Kong to Macau. Begin your journey in the morning by heading to the Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal, where you can catch a TurboJET ferry to Macau. The ferry ride takes approximately 55 minutes and will bring you to Macau's Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal.

Step off the ferry and into Macau's past. The first stop is the Ruins of St. Paul—the city's most famous landmark and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Only the stone facade remains of this 17th-century church, destroyed by fire in 1835. But what a facade it is.

Look closely at the carvings. Statues of saints and angels sit alongside Chinese dragons and chrysanthemums - a blend of European and Chinese influences you won't see anywhere else. Climb the stairs to the top for views across Macau and the Pearl River Delta.

Next, make your way to Fortaleza do Monte, also known as "Mount Fortress." This 17th-century fortification was originally built by the Jesuits and served as a defensive system. Climb Mount Hill within the fort and enjoy panoramic views of the city of Macau from its balustrades. As you explore, you'll also come across old cannons, providing a glimpse into the fort's historical significance.

Afterward, take a leisurely stroll to Senado Square, a vibrant public square situated in the heart of Macau. Visiting Senado Square immerses you in the city's unique culture and heritage. The colonial-style buildings that surround the square serve as reminders of Macau's Portuguese past, while the numerous shops and restaurants offer a delightful experience of the city's diverse culinary scene.

Make sure to pay a visit to the A-Ma Temple, the oldest temple in Macau, dedicated to the goddess Mazu, who is revered as the protector of seafarers. Explore the various buildings within the temple complex and learn about their religious significance.

If you're interested, you can also venture to the Venetian Macao, the largest casino in the world. Take some time to experience the opulence of the resort, try your luck at the tables or slots, or simply relax and soak in the luxurious atmosphere.

At the conclusion of your tour, your guide will accompany you to the cruise terminal, where you can board a ferry to return to Hong Kong.
