Itinerary
Arrival, Victoria Harbour & Tsim Sha Tsui Orientation

Tip: If you arrive early, store luggage at the hotel and explore local markets.
City Sights, Parks & Family-Friendly Museums
Morning visit to Kowloon Park for casual birding and park trails. Proceed to the Hong Kong Museum of History for engaging exhibits about the region’s ecology and heritage — great for kids. Afternoon free for shopping or a harbour-front tram ride. Evening optional harbour light show viewing.
Note: Bring light snacks for children; museums are stroller-friendly.
Transfer to Yuen Long & Sunset at Mai Po / Deep Bay
Transfer northwest to Yuen Long, your base for wetland exploration. Check in and head to Mai Po / Deep Bay for an evening exploration (seasonal guided visit where permits apply). Learn about tidal flats, mudskippers and the importance of the area for migratory birds.
Important: Mai Po visits require permits and are guided — schedule can be seasonal. Early booking recommended.
Full Day: Mai Po Guided Birdwatching & Habitat Walks
Full-day guided birdwatching at Mai Po Nature Reserve led by local experts. Includes boardwalks, viewpoint hides, and an introduction to mudflat ecology. Perfect for families with older children and first-time birders. Picnic lunch by the reserve or return to the hotel for a break.
Tip: Carry binoculars, a camera with zoom and wear sun/rain protection. Mornings are the best time for migratory birds.
Hong Kong Wetland Park & Local Village Walks
Visit the interactive Hong Kong Wetland Park — family-friendly exhibits, butterfly gardens, and feeding stations. Afternoon guided walk through nearby rural villages to observe traditional stilt houses, fish ponds and local farming practices. Evening at leisure in Yuen Long sampling local cuisine.
