Travelers often make 4 mistakes in the New Territories Hong Kong

The New Territories is the largest part of Hong Kong SAR.

Apart from the city center, travelers should visit this interesting place more.

 

However, travelers are unfamiliar with the New Territories and often make mistakes there.

Made in Hong Kong Frank the tour guide is going to show readers travelers’ four common mistakes in the New Territories in this post.

• Stay in hotels in the New Territories
• Don’t visit the country parks or Geopark in the New Territories
• Don’t visit the museum in the New Territories
• Misunderstand Lantau Island is not part of the New Territories

Frank the tour guide’s easy New Territories private tour can bring you to the highlights and hidden gems easily.

 

Frank looks forward to showing clients the beautiful New Territories during the private tour service soon after the pandemic.

Stay in hotels in the New Territories

Recently a lot of new hotels have been built in different new towns in the New Territories.

Most of them offer bigger rooms and lower rates to travelers.

 

However it is not a wise choice to stay in those hotels in the New Territories.

Most of the new hotels in the New Territories are too far away from the city center.

 

You need to spend more time and more money to go back and forth the New Territories and the highlights in the city center.

The loss outweighs your gain!

Travelers should stay in the hotels in the city center of Hong Kong for convenience. (For how to choose the most suitable hotel in Hong Kong, please browse Frank’s other posts.)

 

Just book Frank the tour guide’s easy New Territories private tour, you can tour the New Territories in a relaxed manner.

5: “Frank provided an exceptional afternoon for us…”

5 Review: Frank provided an exceptional afternoon for us. Although we have been in Hong Kong several times, every stop was new to us. Our visit to the flower and bird market, our monkey sightings and the New Territories stops more than met our expectations. It seemed that Frank picked visits that were specifically tailored to our interests. Sam our driver was always there for us, the car was very cool and comfortable. It was a tour we will remember with great fondness. (Browse private tour page)

Frank’s response: Thank you very much, Betty! New Territories ‘the land between’ private car tour shows travelers another interesting, but mostly neglected, side of Hong Kong, the New Territories. It is suitable to the new and returned travelers. During the tour, travelers takes the included private car, which likes a “time machine”, to see and learn the history and development of the suburban Hong Kong. Beautiful flowers, vibrant birds, naughty monkeys and nice natural landscape make the tour more interesting!(Message Frank to plan YOUR private tour)

 

Don’t visit the country parks or Geopark in the New Territories

Hong Kong’s country parks and Geopark are mostly in the New Territories.

However, a lot of travelers just don’t go to the natural treasures of Hong Kong.

 

This is travelers’ big loss.

Travelers can take KMB bus route no. 72 or 81 to visit the Kam Shan Country Park to see the giant Kowloon Reservoir, cute monkeys, beautiful plants and great view. (Please alight at the Shek Lei Pui Reservoir Stop. For details, please browse Kowloon Motor Bus website).

 

Travelers can see the amazing geoheritage and natural landscape in the Geopark in the Sai Kung Peninsula.

 

After sightseeing, travelers can enjoy the famous and delicious seafood in the restaurants at the Sai Kung waterfront.

 

Frank the tour guide has one full day private tour to show clients the city’s major highlights and hidden natural treasures.

5Review: We had 2 days in Hong Kong with Frank. After taking his full day Hong Kong Island and Kowloon tour, we were able to take on our second day 2 half day tours: Sai Kung Seafood tour and the Lantau Island tour. I was already surprised what we say on the first day but the Sai Kung Seafood tour was even better. The Sai Kung peninsula is beautiful with small fishing villages and beautiful beaches. The brunch was awesome. Again, Frank’s knowledge and service for the tour was excellent. Thanks to Ringo our driver. (Browse private tour page)

Frank’s response: Thank you again, Linda! Frank the CEO (Chief Experience Officer) and Ringo the CTO (Chief Transports Officer) are happy to hear that our private guide services and limousine services exceed your expectations. We are eager to show Sai Kung’s good scenery, tasty seafood and interesting cultural elements, which are not easy to access, to the travelers through our easy, efficient and comfortable private limousine tour with private guide. (Message Frank to plan YOUR private tour)

 

Don’t visit the museum in the New Territories

A lot of travelers don’t want to visit museums during their trips.

They think museums are too boring.

But it is travelers’ mistake to skip the Hong Kong Heritage Museum in Sha Tin.

 

It is an useful and interesting museum.

Visitors can get strong air-conditioning and free Wi-fi in the museum.

Apart from the exhibitions for local Hong Kong culture, there are exhibitions for Cantonese opera music and famous martial arts movie star, Bruce Lee.

 

After visiting the Tsang Tai Uk Walled House to see the history of the native people in the New Territories, clients can enjoy AC in the informative Hong Kong Heritage Museum in one full day private tour of Frank the tour guide.

Misunderstand Lantau Island is not part of the New Territories

A lot of travelers misunderstand that the largest island in Hong Kong, Lantau Island, is a separate region.

 

Actually it is part of the New Territories.

Although Lantau Island is quite far away from the mainland, travelers can have Frank the tour guide’s full day private tour to say hello to Lantau Big Buddha, take Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car ride, see the cute monkeys and see indigenous history in the New Territories in one day.
