Nice way to see Hong Kong. Had the evening session and is definitely worth it!

Hannah – United Kingdom

Really enjoyed it. No obvious sign at start point you’re looking out for a person holding a paper sign. Amazing experience did it on our final night and was the perfect way to end our trip.

Full description

Grasp the rare chance to come aboard Dukling, the last original Chinese junk (traditional Chinese Junk boat with sails) still regularly operating in Hong Kong. Take in views of the city skyline, learn about the boat’s history, and enjoy 1 drink during the cruise.

Hop on board at the meeting point, then embark on a voyage through time on a boat that was built in 1955 — and once even sunk in 2014. Learn about the boat’s changing roles from a humble fishing boat to a sightseeing cruise, as well as its cultural legacy and cherished role in Hong Kong’s identity.

Hear about fisherman culture and the history of Hong Kong from your guide as the historic vessel cruises along both sides of the modern Victoria Harbour. Feel the breeze and enjoy the stunning views of Hong Kong's iconic skyline.

Relax and have a great time with your friends, family, or partner while enjoying the complimentary drink provided on board. Take Instagrammable photos with the ship's beautiful red sail, or ask the onboard staff to help capture these amazing moments for you.

Meeting point

Please wait by the shore in front of Starbucks and Wildfire Pizzabar at the Avenue of Stars, Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, Tsim Sha Tsui East. The Pier you will board on Dukling is right outside these 2 restaurants where you will find a flight of stairs leading down to the sea. (Please ensure you do not mistakenly go to the Public Pier near Star Ferry and Cultural Centre, as we do not pick up guests from there. If you were there, it would take 10-15 minutes walk from that Pier to Dukling's Embark point at the Tsim Sha Tsui East Pier at the Avenue of Stars) Approximately 10 minutes before your tour's departure, you will spot Dukling heading towards the pier. Our crew members will come ashore to welcome assist you in boarding Dukling. While waiting for Dukling, please do not join the large queue of people by the shore, as they are tour groups waiting for other boats and ferries.
