We cover 17 things to do in Hong Kong that you won't want to miss for your upcoming trip. Our guide includes a balance of popular places but also others that are lesser known and typically more off-the-beaten-path in the city.
These were all of the spots we were able to fit into a 7 day Hong Kong travel itinerary. It was a unique trip for me because it combined half of the trip where I was showing my parents some of my favourite things about Hong Kong from over the years and the other half where I was my own where I made sure I fit in places that are often overlooked.
I'm sure I missed a TON because there's way more than a week's worth of things to do in Hong Kong. Drop a comment to share your favourites!
