HAND-VETTED RESORTS
One of the World's Great Arrivals
Hong Kong is one of the world's great arrivals — a skyline that rises straight from the harbour, a city where Cantonese tradition and global energy press together on every street. Beyond the neon and the dim-sum trolleys lie green hills, outlying islands and quiet beaches that surprise first-time visitors.
At HighStreet Holidays we treat Hong Kong as more than a stopover. We pair the harbour-view hotels and rooftop bars with the things that make the city itself — the markets, the Star Ferry, the cable car to the Big Buddha, and food at every level from street stall to tasting menu.
With a carefully vetted portfolio of the city's finest addresses, we build a Hong Kong that works as a destination in its own right — or the perfect gateway to Asia beyond.
Few cities hit you the way Hong Kong does on the first night — the harbour lights, the food, the sheer pace. It never quite leaves you.
Signature Experiences
Moments That Linger
Hong Kong packs a continent's worth of contrasts into a small space. These are the experiences our clients come home remembering.
Victoria Peak
The Peak Tram up to the city's high point, where the whole of Hong Kong, Kowloon and the harbour unfold below — best at dusk as the skyline lights up.
The Star Ferry
The crossing between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon on the historic green-and-white ferries is one of the world's great cheap thrills — and the best view in the city.
Dim Sum & Food
From a traditional dim-sum brunch with the trolleys to a Michelin-starred tasting menu, Hong Kong is one of the planet's finest eating cities — we book the tables that matter.
The Big Buddha
The cable car across Lantau Island to the Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery — a serene half-day that shows the green, spiritual side of Hong Kong.
The Outlying Islands
Lamma, Cheung Chau and the beaches few visitors reach — a short ferry from the centre, and a glimpse of the slower, older Hong Kong.
Markets & Neighbourhoods
The temple-street night market, the flower and bird markets, and the boutiques of Sheung Wan — the city street by street, with a guide who knows it.

Best Time to Visit
When to Go
PEAK SEASON
October to December
Cooler, dry and clear — the most comfortable time, with pleasant temperatures and lower humidity. The ideal window for walking the city and the islands.
COOL SEASON
January to March
Mild and occasionally grey, with the spectacular Lunar New Year celebrations falling in late January or February — book well ahead if you'd like to be there for them.
HOT & HUMID
April to June
Warm, humid and increasingly wet as summer approaches. Still a fine time to visit, with the city's air-conditioned comforts never far away.
TYPHOON SEASON
July to September
Hot, very humid and the season for occasional typhoons, which can disrupt travel for a day or two. We keep an eye on the forecast and build flexibility into your plans.
