Hong Kong Vacations & Packages

Hong Kong Accommodation

From vibrant Victoria Harbor to the stunning lookout of Victoria Peak, Hong Kong is a city of engaging contrasts, where ancient Chinese traditions coexist with modern life. Six times the size of Washington, DC, Hong Kong has just under 7 million residents, and a bustling, energetic vibe. A harbor cruise is a must-do for visitors, whether it’s a trip on the historic Star Ferry, or an evening cruise for cocktails or dinner.

Every night a spectacular show of colored lights and lasers illuminates the harbor. One of Hong Kong’s main attractions is shopping, from international designer brands to bargains at open-air markets. Nathan Road boasts over two miles of shops and boutiques. The Hong Kong food scene offers seafood, dim sum, international cuisine—and more. No matter how long you stay, glittering Hong Kong will capture your imagination!
