Description

Grasp the rare chance to come aboard Dukling, the last original Chinese junk (traditional boat with sails) still regularly operating in Hong Kong. Take in views of the city skyline, learn about the boat’s history, and enjoy 1 drink during the cruise. Hop on board at the meeting point, then embark on a voyage through time on a boat that was built in 1955 — and once even sunk in 2014. Learn about the boat’s changing roles from a humble fishing boat to a sightseeing cruise, as well as its cultural legacy and cherished role in Hong Kong’s identity. Hear about fisherman culture and the history of Hong Kong from your guide as the historic vessel cruises along both sides of the modern Victoria Harbour. Feel the breeze and enjoy the stunning views of Hong Kong's iconic skyline. Relax and have a great time with your friends, family, or partner while enjoying the complimentary drink provided on board. Take Instagrammable photos with the ship's beautiful red sail, or ask the onboard staff to help capture these amazing moments for you. Choose from a range of starting times, with each offering a distinct cruise experience. Take the daytime tour at 4:30 PM for a calm and serene experience sailing in the harbor. To watch the beautiful sunset in winter, take the sunset tour at 5:30 PM. Enjoy Hong Kong's famous night views and feel the vibrancy and energy of the city on the 6:30 PM cruise. Choose the 7:30 PM night cruise to watch the dazzling Symphony of Lights, the world's largest permanent light and sound show.
