Day 1 - Arrive Hong Kong

Arrive today at Hong Kong International Airport where, after clearing arrival formalities, you are met and transferred by Rolls Royce to the magnificent Peninsula Hotel a perennial favourite on the world’s top hotels’ list.

Hong Kong remains remarkable – its historic fusion of British and Chinese continues to set it apart.  While 1997 marked its return to China the city has continued to flourish and move forward, Asia’s most important financial services centre.  While its stunning skyline may impress it is really what lies within that truly distinguishes Hong Kong: 22 nature parks, miles of hiking trails, over 230 off-shore islands, and a rich legacy of both British and Chinese.  There is no better culinary capital in Asia and with its special situation within China it is a bellwether for the future.

Day 2 - Hong Kong

Early this morning start your day, the traditional Hong Kong way with a class in Tai Chi set in one of the city’s most beautiful public gardens.  Led by a resident master, Tai Chi focuses on the balance and unity of the outer and inner body - the physical and mental.  It  emphasizes complete relaxation and is essentially ‘meditation in motion’. There are different schools but it is characterized by a series of slow, flowing movements that accentuate force and are executed precisely. Your instructor will introduce you to the foundational movements and techniques that will set you on the road to your better self. 

The balance of the day will focus on the many aspects of Hong Kong, an all around orientation that takes you from the traditional herbal medicine markets to the heart of Central, the city’s dynamic financial centre. 

Lunch is at the China Club the most exclusive private member’s club and features a guest speaker who will discuss the future of Hong Kong and its role as Asia’s financial heart. 

This evening take a ride to the top when you board your private car on the Peak Tram, Hong Kong’s oldest form of public transport.  On arrival at the summit drink the stunning lights that illuminate the harbor – a breathtaking view that best captures the wonder of Hong Kong.  Dinner follows affording you a kaleidoscope of evening imagery from the top of the Peak at 552 metres (1,811 feet).

Following dinner return to your hotel.
