Hong Kong to Macao – 5 Days
Hong Kong & Macao City Adventure blends culture, history and modern attractions across two of Asia’s most dynamic destinations. Hong Kong and Macau sit on China’s southern coast and are both Special Administrative Regions, each with a distinct identity shaped by East–West influences. Begin in Hong Kong, where glass-and-steel skyscrapers rise beside colonial-era buildings, and street markets add colour to daily life. Walk through Central on a guided tour, then ride up to Victoria Peak for iconic skyline and harbour panoramas. Balance city energy with nature on the Dragon’s Back trail, and visit Aberdeen for a glimpse of Hong Kong’s fishing heritage. Add local character with time at Stanley Market and explore Kowloon’s lively markets, from flowers to goldfish. A hands-on dim sum cooking class completes the experience with an authentic taste of Cantonese tradition.
In Macao, discover a compelling blend of Portuguese heritage and Chinese culture, shaped by more than 400 years of Portuguese rule. Explore the Historic Centre of Macau, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that brings together key landmarks and neighbourhoods, including the Ruins of St. Paul’s and Senado Square. Continue to the historic villages of Taipa and Coloane for a quieter, more local side of the city, then shift gears with the modern spectacle of the Cotai Strip, often linked to Macau’s reputation as the “Las Vegas of the East”. Enjoy VIP seats at the House of Dancing Water for a standout evening. Both cities attract visitors year-round, and travelling between them is straightforward: the easiest option is the ferry, taking roughly one hour, supported by convenient public transport connections at both ends.
HONG KONG CITY VIEWS AND TRAILS: Ride the historic Peak Tram to Victoria Peak and Sky Terrace for panoramic harbour and skyline views, then hike Dragon’s Back for sweeping coastal scenery ending at Big Wave Bay. Contrast Repulse Bay’s elegance with Aberdeen’s fishing traditions and Stanley Market’s seaside charm. Add Lantau Island’s Big Buddha, Po Lin Monastery and Ngong Ping Cable Car, plus Ocean Park or Hong Kong Disneyland.
KOWLOON MARKETS AND CULINARY EXPERIENCES: Cross Victoria Harbour on the Star Ferry and explore Kowloon’s highlights, from the Avenue of Stars to the Flower Market and Goldfish Market. Dive into street life in Mong Kok and Temple Street Night Market, famed for lively stalls, street entertainment and classic street food. Join a hands-on dim sum cooking class for authentic flavours. Use an Octopus card for quick, easy payments on transport and in shops.
MACAO’S CULTURAL LANDMARKS AND ENTERTAINMENT: Discover Macao’s UNESCO-listed Historic Centre, including the Ruins of St. Paul’s and Senado Square, then wander Taipa and Coloane for a more local feel. In the evening, enjoy VIP seats at the House of Dancing Water and finish on the glittering Cotai Strip, where world-class resorts, architecture and entertainment define Macau’s “Las Vegas of the East” atmosphere.
The difference with the Asian Geographical is, that each of our holidays is designed with extreme precision of a mountaineering expedition.
Explore Hong Kong and Macao through cultural landmarks, scenic trails, street markets and standout entertainment. From Victoria Peak to UNESCO Macau, discover iconic sights, local flavours and refined comfort with Asian Geographical, Asia travel experts. Day trips between Hong Kong and Macau are easy by public transport, and both cities welcome visitors year-round.
Arrive in Hong Kong and check into your 5-star hotel. Begin with a guided walk through Central, where skyscrapers, art galleries and designer boutiques sit side by side; nearby Sheung Wan makes a convenient base and an easy link to the Macau ferry terminal. Ride the Mid-Levels Escalator for a street-level perspective on the city’s energy, then take the historic Victoria Peak Tram to Victoria Peak. At the summit, visit Sky Terrace for panoramic views of Victoria Harbour, and follow the Peak Circle Walk for even wider perspectives. Stay for sunset as the skyline lights up.
The Peninsula Hong Kong
Landmark Mandarin Oriental
Peninsula Hong Kong is a prestigious luxury hotel in Hong Kong, set on Kowloon Island next to the Star Ferry terminal. Once known as the “Grand Lady of the Far East”, this legendary hotel consists of an historic 1920s building and a new 30 stories tower added in 1994. Refurbished in 2013 to its old glory, albeit with modern fitting and technology, this beautiful hotel is the embodiment of total luxury. Situated in Kowloon, it forms a perfect base to explore its wetlands and country parks.
The Landmark Mandarin Oriental is a luxury boutique hotel, set in the heart of bustling Hong Kong Island. Outfitted with a streamlined look with its ultra-contemporary, luxurious and subdued design, the hotel is an oasis for discerning travellers who want to be located in a central location. Superbly located near the sophisticated shopping malls and some of the best dining hotspots in Hong Kong, it is perfectly convenient for business and leisure travellers.
Start the day on the Dragon’s Back trail, one of Hong Kong’s best hikes, with sweeping views of coastline and nearby islands. Continue to Repulse Bay for its golden beach and upscale atmosphere, then visit Aberdeen, a traditional fishing district, for a private sampan cruise and a glimpse of life on the water. If you wish, add Tai O Fishing Village on Lantau Island, known for stilt houses and local character, or take the Ngong Ping Cable Car to the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery. Later, browse Stanley Market and end with an easy promenade stroll by the sea.

Designed to immerse travellers in the distinctive blend of tradition and modernity that characterizes Hong Kong and Macao, this tour is an ode to the cities’ rich cultural tapestry and dynamic urban landscapes. Hong Kong’s small city size makes it easy to explore, with quick access between vibrant districts like Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Both cities are celebrated for their unique blend of East and West, where Chinese and Portuguese influences meet in architecture, culture, and daily life. Macau, in particular, is renowned for its unique blend of Portuguese and Chinese culinary influences, offering a gastronomic experience unlike any other.
The inspiration behind crafting such an itinerary lies in showcasing the contrasts and connections between luxurious urbanity and serene natural settings, historic sites, and cutting-edge entertainment. By integrating experiences ranging from high-end shopping and dining to close encounters with traditional lifestyles and natural wonders, the tour promises a comprehensive exploration of what makes these destinations unique.
Tailored for enthusiasts of activities, culture, nature, and wildlife, the expedition offers luxury accommodations, personalized services, and a curated selection of guided tours. This meticulously planned expedition is aimed at delivering an unforgettable experience, highlighting the beauty, diversity, and spirit of these iconic cities.
YOUR TRIP DESIGN, PACE & FLEXIBILITY: This Hong Kong–Macao City Adventure is fully private and built around your preferred dates, pace and comfort level, combining Hong Kong’s headline districts and harbour scenes with a contrasting day (or overnight) in Macao for heritage, cuisine and atmosphere. We will advise the best routing and timings to keep touring efficient and unhurried—planning the right windows for Victoria Peak and waterfront views, and selecting ferry timings that minimise queues and maximise time in Macao. The programme is easy to tailor: add extra free time for shopping and galleries in Hong Kong, extend Macao to include evening ambience, or deepen the food focus with curated dining stops.
PRIVATE GUIDES, DRIVERS & ON-THE-GROUND SUPPORT: This is a high-end private journey with professional local guides meeting you for key touring days and private transfers arranged throughout. We manage airport meet-and-greet, seamless hotel arrivals, and door-to-door coordination for harbour crossings and neighbourhood walks, so you are met where needed and the trip flows smoothly. For the Hong Kong–Macao crossing, we coordinate ferry logistics, timing and arrivals, and arrange onward transfers on both sides. Weather, sea conditions and crowd patterns can affect timings; we keep the schedule flexible and will re-sequence the day to protect the best viewpoints and the most enjoyable touring conditions.
ACCOMMODATION STANDARDS & MEAL BASIS: We select premium, well-located accommodation to match your brief, typically using a high-comfort city hotel in Hong Kong and, if you choose an overnight in Macao, a quality hotel positioned for easy access to heritage areas and dining. Breakfast is typically included, with other meals arranged around your preferences—ranging from curated dim sum and fine dining in Hong Kong to Portuguese-influenced cuisine and local specialities in Macao. Restaurant reservations can be secured in advance where needed. Dietary needs are usually straightforward to accommodate in both cities, and we will plan restaurant choices accordingly. Your final itinerary will confirm what is included each day.
FLIGHTS, VISAS, HEALTH & TRAVEL INSURANCE: International flights are optional: we can arrange the trip as land-only, or include flights as a flight-inclusive package under our ATOL (where applicable). This itinerary includes sea travel between Hong Kong and Macao, plus city touring with walking, steps and escalators; activity levels are light-to-moderate and can be adapted to your preferences. Entry requirements depend on your passport and routing across Hong Kong and Macao; we will guide you on typical requirements and timing, while you remain responsible for meeting entry rules. Comprehensive travel insurance is essential, including medical cover and disruption.
COSTING, PAYMENTS, CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS: Tailor-made pricing is built from live supplier rates (hotels, private transfers, guiding and ferry tickets), so availability and costs can change until bookings are secured. The main price drivers are seasonality, premium hotel inventory (particularly on weekends and holidays), ferry class and timing, and the level of private experiences and dining you choose. Some high-demand hotels and services may require advance payments or stricter deadlines to secure space; we will confirm exactly what is due and by when before taking payment. Changes after booking can trigger supplier fees or rate differences; we will explain the impact before actioning changes and provide documentation of deadlines and terms.
