Tours to Victoria Harbour

This superbly sheltered deep-water anchorage dividing Hong Kong and Kowloon is what initially attracted British traders to the area during the Opium Wars of the 1830s and 1840s, and it remains among the world’s busiest seaways. For a view you’ll never forget, take a stroll along the Avenue of Stars in Tsim Sha Tsui – a promenade in the style of Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, built to honour heroes of the Hong Kong film industry – from where you can take in an awesome sweep of the city – a vista most impressive just after sunset, when a million lights illuminate the skyscrapers and backdrop of jungle-covered mountains.
