Star Ferry Harbour Crossing & PMQ Heritage Art Quarter Tour

Cross Victoria Harbour on the legendary Star Ferry — a 125-year-old institution and one of the world's great short voyages — then explore PMQ, Hong Kong's most atmospheric heritage art and design quarter in a restored 1950s police married quarters block.

What to expect

Board the iconic green-and-white double-decker ferry at Tsim Sha Tsui Pier and glide across the harbour with the skyline rising theatrically before you — a scene that has captivated travellers for over a century. On the Central side, your private guide leads you into PMQ, where over 100 Hong Kong designers occupy the beautifully preserved colonial blocks. Browse bespoke jewellery, ceramics, and fashion; duck into a hidden rooftop café; and hear the stories of the building's layered history — from pre-war police barracks to cultural landmark.
