Hong Kong Island

Hong Kong Island is an island in the southern part of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. It has a population of 1,289,500 and its population density is 16,390/km², as of 2008. The island had a population of 3,000 inhabitants scattered in a dozen fishing villages when it was occupied by the United Kingdom in the First Opium War in 1842, and the City of Victoria was then established on the island by the British Force in honour of Queen Victoria. The Central area on the island is the historical, political and economic centre of Hong Kong. The northern coast of the island forms the southern shore of the Victoria Harbour, which is largely responsible for the development of Hong Kong due to its deep waters favoured by large trade ships.

5+ stars!!!

I cannot speak highly enough about Joanne’s knowledge, patience and high level of service!!! We have booked a few trips with Joanne and she is amazing to work with! One bigger trip was to Costa Rica. Joanne booked a multi flight/area/hotel trip and nailed it! Here is where the level of service gets super impressive....unfortunately this trip was last March, when the pandemic was fresh and creating major havoc for those abroad, we were panicked and scrambling to get back...
