Indagare Tours: Great Outdoors

Our longtime resident guides can dispel the notion that Hong Kong is a concrete jungle with marvelous day tours of the unspoiled bays and rugged islands of the Sai Kung region. Our local outfitter has a superfast boat, previously used by the police to nab smugglers, and zooms people from Sai Kung town pier into a world of turquoise ocean, rugged rock formations and fragile coral. Once there, the pace slows dramatically, and guests have the option of snorkeling, kayaking—or simply chilling. In the cooler winter months, opt instead to hike along the little-used mountain trails and coastal paths of spectacularly scenic Sai Kung. For tourists who are time-pressed, we can organize a helicopter ride back to downtown.
