Had a great cruise on the Harbour to the Lei Yue Mun Seafood Village. Dinner at the village was lovely, good_br/_ Had a great cruise to the Lei Yue Mun Seafood Village. Free beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks available on the boat. The dinner at the village consisted of a number of courses which were all very tasty. Cruising back seeing the night lights was magical. Definitely worth doing.

We enjoyed the cruise part, but I would recommend skipping the dinner. They took us from Hong Kong with the rest of the passengers, but we were the only ones that got off the boat for dinner in the village. They did provide a guide for us who offered to walk through the small fishing market with us which we declined. The boat came back after dinner and as a result we missed the evening Hong Kong light show which was a disappointment. It was one of the reasons we wanted to do the cruise. Dinner was okay, but nothing special.

This trip was well worth it. The cruise to the island was very pleasant and once there we were escorted to our restaurant. We all sat at a table together and were served a delicious meal. The conversation was pleasant as well as the company. After dinner we were able to walk around and see the fresh fish. The ride back was fabulous as we were able to see the beautiful Hong Kong skyline lit up. It was just enough time to get to know our other travelers and still have the rest of the evening to explore on our own. I highly recommend this. Our guide was also very pleasant and full of information.

It's a good experience overall. Just a bit misleading in the description. It would have been better if we were able to stop by_br/_ the seafood market before dinner in case we wanted to have something added to our meal and to have been given the opportunity_br/_ to choose the fresh seafood ourselves._br/_ Before the tour I contacted the operator to ask if we could alter the menu slightly to accommodate dietary restrictions but they_br/_ said it was not possible. I'm happy to say that it is possible to add items to the menu but not substitute. Just pay extra of course._br/_ Still a good experience being on the harbor and having drinks on the boat and viewing the Hong Kong skyline at night.

This was a great cruise and dinner at a truly local restaurant. There were 26 people in the group, but only 3 that spoke English. The food was great and it was nice to see an area where the local people work, shop for seafood and eat. I later learned, that the other 23 people were from mainland China, celebrating the Chinese New Year and being tourist just like me.

Great evening tour of Hong Kong in one of the world's great cities. Well paced tour with a lovely dinner and a very knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended.

The Victoria Harbor lights and dinner cruise was fantastic. The lights on the buildings were beautiful. The boat was comfortable. Our guide Raymond was excellent and the tour he gave us of the fish market was very informative. The dinner in Li Yue Muen was very good. This was truly a memorable experience and the highlight of our trip to Hong Kong.

Billed as free drinks. True on the short boat trip, unfortunately the quality of the drinks, in my case gin, was so poor it was undrinkable. Tasted like moonshine made in the bilge. The Chinese banquet comprised of a smallish but fairly decent fried fish, a few fried shrimp, sweet and sour pork, straight from the local takeaway, fried rice and greens. Apart from the fish the rest could have come from your local Chinese takeaway. And you had to pay for any beer or wine. Fish market was interesting and the view of the lights was good.

The Hong Kong Harbor Night Cruise was a perfect way to enjoy the fabulous night time skyline of both the Kowloon and Hong Kong sides of the harbor. The nine course dinner at Skyline Seafood Restaurant was excellent with a very attentive staff that provide pleasant conversations during the dinner. The tour guide provide very informative tour of the Lei Yue Mun Fishing Village and pointed out outstanding features while on the tour boat. We enjoy the experience very much.

Fun night out on a boat but the restaurant experience very average and lighting was like a hospital,_br/_ food was just okay and they could do so much better

Excellent trip. Picked up on time from Pier 9 in junk. Full range of drinks on boat included. Restaurant good ambience, high class, clean and tasty food. Fish market tour was outstanding - clean, fresh and no traditional Hong Kong fishy smell. Highly recommend this tour. We would do it again._br/_ Lesley and David - Sydney

Review by: John M, May 2017
This was a fun tour, made much more fun by our congenial Australian tour group members. There are two tours: one that takes the group by bus to the Jumbo Seafood Restaurant in Aberdeen and this one. They claim an hour harbor cruise, and thats fair. However, for this tour, it's basically a half hour boat ride to the restaurant and a half hour sail back to Central Pier. The food here was much better than you'd get at the Jumbo tourist trap, but it still was more touristy then the great seafood we had with a Chinese colleague at a non-tourist seafood house in Happy Valley. It's a good tour, but don't feel you missed much if you can't make it.

That was a really great night. Cruising around the harbour was interesting and very photogenic, but the best bit for us was the dinner - delicious! - and after it our guide took us around a real working fish market which was fantastic - all the creatures, all the real life happening there. We loved it. Thanks so much for that beautiful and unique experience.

We really enjoyed the boat trip at night with the lights on Victoria Harbour however the restaurant and the food we were served were both very bland and ordinary, nothing we could not have bought in an average New Zealand Chinese restaurant - so we'd recommend doing the night cruise on the harbour and then going somewhere else to eat afterwards - like the outside restaurants down by Temple Market.our guide was very pleasant and it was interesting to see the fish market in the village.

We went on this cruise with high expectations as majority of the feed back seemed to be positive. However, as former residents of Hong Kong, we found the cruise to be disappointing. The cruise was actually a ferry service to bring people to their dining locations. Would be nice to go around the harbour a little more as it is named as harbour cruise.

This tour commenced with a harbor cruise on a showery night, which restricted visibility a little. Nevertheless, the commentary on board our boat, Wing On was informative and provided a good opportunity to see the city and highrise lights on both Kowloon and Hong Kong Islands. The cruise lasted for around an hour, which was then followed by a wonderful dinner at Lei Yue Mun Seafood Village. This dinner comprised at least five courses of Chinese fare, all of which great. Following dinner, our tour guide took us through the seafood village itself, where businesses have their live seafood in respective tanks, awaiting the restaurants and their customers, to select the seafood for immediate cooking and consumption. An interesting experience and business village operation. Overall, a great night and well worth the tour.
