The harbor tour was very nice. The dinner was ok but nothing special. Only 2 others ate at the Jumbo Restaurant from the tour and there were few patrons at the restaurant. A bit of a disappointment.

Good tour, good food but tour ended at central location at taxi shift change time. Had to walk 1.2 miles with a cane bearing colleague. Would not recommend this tour for that reason.

Jumbo Rest was excellent, but Hong Kong Sunset Cruise wasn't worth it and after dinner they drop us off at a unknown hotel in the Kowloon area and we could not get a taxie because it was at 10 o'clock at night and the taxies were changing shifts and will not pick you up and we had to walk almost 2 miles to our hotel. Very poor communications, the guide on off on the Hong Kong side and did not tell us where they were dropping us off.. Go to the Jumbo Floating Restaurant but go by other means.

Was a wonderful evening on the harbour seeing the lights. The Jumbo Floating Restaurant was wonderful, although for the price the meal left a lot to be desired.

The boat ride was fun but dinner at Jumbo was better. We also took great pictures from the lookout on the Peak.

Hi_br/_ I attended the cruise dinner at Jumbo. I informed the tour lady that I don't eat beef and pork but I do eat sea food, and chicken._br/_ I was not happy at all with the food I was provided. It really spoilt my evening._br/_

Cruise on Victoria Harbour was good, Jumbo is old and dated with inedible food, runber quid, cold greasy rice and noodles and sullen wait staff, we felt as welcome as a turd in a punchbowl. Wirth $200 Australian? Not at all.

This was a spectacular tour with the sights and services of the guide and the dinner dishes we were able to taste. The only situation encountered on this tour were a couple of selfish travelers did not take into consideration the food on the table was for all travelers not just them and as a result some of the guests did not get the opportunity to taste all the dishes as this couple would load up their plates with whatever dishes were placed in front of them.

The sunset cruise portion of the tour was excellent, with good bar service and fabulous scenery of Hong Kong. The Jumbo floating restaurant meal was poor, with dirty dishes, cold day old fish balls, and lumpy noodles. The Victoria Peak portion did not include a stop at the peak, but a short stop at Stubbs lookout point, another disappointment.

To be honest I felt this tour was very disappointing. We could have gone on the boat cruise for just 330 HKD but the free drinks were not that pleasant. Beer called Blue Ice which tasted like shandy, cheap spirits and the wife my wife had red wine which was very harsh and undrinkable. The boat cruise itself was good and seeing Hong Kong at night from a cruise was great so we would have paid just for that. Unfortunately, it did not get better and after expecting so much from JUMBO, the floating retsaurant, again it was not good. We were expecting a nice banquet of food having 120 each in total 1200 for the table. We were rushed in, given some soup and at the same time plates of food arrived, of which some were cold already. Then we were rushed to finish and go. We had previously eaten better food at the street market the night before. The final 'experience' was to go to a viewing site to see the harbour which would have been great had all the trees not blocked the view! All in all not worth the money and I would not advise anyone to visit the Jumbo restaurant as part of a tour. Disappointing!

The tour is a must do for anyone visiting Hong Kong. The twilight cruise with unlimited drinks, followed by an authentic, but very uninspired, ordinary meal began a great night. The Restaurant itself, was beautiful and rightly well visited. Following the meal, we greatly enjoyed the return night cruise to see the beautiful Hong Kong Harbour lights...one that we will always remember. Our guide was fantastic, giving us an excellent commentary not only about the cruise but about the Hong Kong history and culture..this cruise was such a wow for us. Highly recommended.

Excellent way to experience hong kong at night. The tour guide was brilliant and very informative. The food was good, however you are all sat together with everyone on the coach so if you wanted a private meal its not the one to choose.

No view from inside just food on table to share

The harbor cruise was great - although there was no sunset due to the clouds, the view was terrific.
Review by: Ann D, April 2017
Boat was a little shabby but the tour was great and the dinner was a lot of fun. Would definitely recommend.
Review by: Brendan C, March 2017
A good tour on a good day if you only have a short stay in Hong Kong. Weather conditions were poor.on the night of the tour which meant that moving about the cruise boat was difficult and the view poor.
Review by: Seng-Lai T, February 2017
The reason I gave it 3 stars is because the food at Jumbo was very disappointing. Not authentic at all. The food was very oily and the service was horrible. My favorite part of the tour is the boat ride as we got to see HK skyline before and after sunset.
Review by: joe.buchanan1, February 2017
Although we were under the wrong impression that the cruise and the dinner where at the same location or even close together. They are not you cruise Hong Kong harbour in a rickety old boat. The dinner is in Aberdeen mariner a fair distance by coach. Where the staff were not very welcoming and the food was poor and served cold. Would not recommend this trip book something else. Not worth the money.
