They have plenty to offer like Beijing, Shanghai, Xian and many others. I am glad that I chose them as I had a great time in Hainan Island. Great local tour guide that met you at the airport and accompany the whole time until it ended five days later. She was excellent. Will choose this agencies the next time I return back to Hong Kong. Yes, I absolutely recommend Miramar.

My family and I have participated in numerous guided vacation tours which were very informative and…read morecultural explorations. Miramar Travel has enable me to journey to Beijing, China; Shanghai, China; Hangzhou, China; Suzhou, China; Wuxi, China; Kaiping, China and Singapore. I have visited many historical sites and landmarks including walking the Great Wall Of China, Nine-Dragon Wall 九龙壁, and Grand Canal of China 大運河. Miramar Travel hosts two informative tour guides (one from HK and the other is local to the destination city). The good thing about this travel agency is that it operates small tours as low as eight (8) people participating when we went to Singapore using a van rather than a bus. This travel agency allows clients to provide their own travel insurance. Price for guided tours include airfare and food during the entire journey, which is great as most travel guided tours do not include food or airfare. Free giveaways are provided at the start of every guided tours to be used to identify as a member without getting lost: button pin and tote bag bearing Mirmar's name.

I came here to get my 2 day Macau SIM card. I was going to order it from Klook and pick up at Beng…read moreSeng Travel but it said it was a available as soon as the next day so I didn't order it. I asked them if I can buy it on klook right now and redeem with them and they told me it's the same price even without. They take octopus card and it was HK$45. I activated the card when I arrived to Macau and at first it didn't work even though it was connected to to Three (Macau's phone service). I turned off my phone hoping it would work and it did. One thing to note is that they don't provide to little Pin to insert your SIM card. I asked the information desk when at Macau ferry terminal and they had it!

Great experience with this travel agency. Angela, the tour guide is one of the best tour guides I…read morehave encountered in all my years traveling around the world. In particular, on this trip, I traveled from Hong Kong to Guizhou, China. Angela and her team (local tour guide in Guizhou and driver) were amazing from making sure the group were safe, enjoyed the sights, food, and accommodations etc Angela was incredible! She was personable and professional. I truly enjoyed my few days in Guizhou because of her. If tour guides at Wing-On travel are like Angela, I would highly recommend. The package for this trip in particular was reasonable. The only negative encounter I faced on this trip were the Hong Kong express airline counter agents at the Guizhou airport, but that's another story.

They have travel itineraries all over the world as well as for cruises. I'll let you in on a secret... You can purchase discounted Airport Express train tickets here. Round-trip, one-way, you name it. If you purchase tickets at the station, one round trip adult Airport Express ticket (Central station to airport) will cost you HK$180 per ticket. At Hong Thai, one discounted adult round-trip ticket costs HK$140. Once in a while, they'll have a promotion, selling round trip tickets for as low as HK$117 a piece! Stock up!

As far as travel agencies go skyscanner.com is my go-to website. What's the point in traveling for…read morethirty minutes, at least, to spend another thirty minutes talking to some one about booking a ticket when I can do just that from the comfort of my own house - without a closing time! Well, generally speaking that's exactly what I've done until I wanted to change a ticket. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent trying to change/cancel a booking via skyscanner or expedia. Enter S Travel. S Travel is actually the first physical travel agency that I've walked into. I was pleasantly surprised by service and ease in which to discuss different travel options. Of course the prices were higher than I would have liked but then again I'm paying for an additional service on top of the flight. The lady at S Travel was helping me with an excursion into China. There were a load of different forms I had to fill in that she couldn't fully explain me to so I did my best. I handed her my passport and other needed documents in order to secure the entry Visa. Five days later and there it was... a Visa into China and for only $500. From all the stories I've heard about waiting in like at the embassy I felt like I definitely got a good deal out of it. But then came trying to book my flight to Shanghai. I told her about the ticket I saw for X amount, one that with all her expertise as an agent could not find. The closest ticket price was about $1,000 over the one I found. At this point I had to ask myself, is $1,000 worth the extra hassle I may have to deal with in the future? In this case the answer was no. With that settled I left the agency and booked my own flight. My experience with S Travel was not bad by any means. It has shown me that agencies do have a use, probably more than one, but until I find out how useful they actually are and I have the time on my hands to find a cheap ticket I'll stick with my computer for now.

Okay, one more HK review as an encore…read more Long Win is a bus company that offers bus service to Hong Kong International Airport. Their buses are double decker so there are two floors of seating. On the lower floor, there is a compartment to place your luggage. Though it can be problematic since usually the lower compartments are full and the only space available is on top. Be careful not to hurt yourself lifting the luggage to fit the space. I took the A41P from HKIA to Ma On Shan. The cost, HK$27.70 which can be paid by cash or Octopus Card is cheap for the long distance. If you took a taxi, the cost would be about 10 times that price which includes paying a couple tolls along the way. The journey is about 45-50 minutes. The buses are comfortable and air conditioned fortunately. It is nice to take this bus to get a nice glimpse of the Hong Kong skyline. On the trek back to HKIA, do make sure to read the timetable carefully. The one at Chevalier Garden lists the time that the bus leaves its first stop, so you will need to estimate how long it takes to get to your particular stop. I would take a Long Win bus again if I was heading to a location that they serve. The buses are pleasant and the extra time is not too much when comparing it to taking a taxi. It may take a little longer, but the cost savings are substantial.
