Reviews
We selected the 630pm. We were there around 530pm and since it was still early, we ordered some drinks at Starbucks which is next to Wildfire pizzabar. Around 6:15 we saw a huge crowd (tourist group) that was already waiting in line but we did not join them and just followed the instruction that was sent via email. Our tour guide was already waiting so we fall in line. And we were a small group in the Dukling..Roughly less than 15 tourists. We got an option of water or softdrinks. The view was magnificent. Better bring jacket as it is extremely cold and windy. My only comment is they should have an official photographer for DUKLING while sailing the harbour. As sometimes high end cellphone cameras does not do enough justice
When you arrive at the boarding dock and you see busloads of tourists lined up to get on boats, you hold your breath it's not the one you will go on. To avoid the chaos and actually have an enjoyable harbor tour, there simply is no better option than the Dukling. An authentic fishing boat from 1955 that at one point even was sunken, resurfaced and given a second life can't be topped as your vessel of choice. The crew take excellent care of everyone and you even get a free drink included in the price. You also get taught the history of the boat and Hong Kong as you go around the harbor. It's an hour of relative tranquility in an otherwise chaotic city.
The cruise gave us a good experience. The view from both shore on the Victoria Harbor were splendid. The boat itself was clean and not to big, so it's not so much people.
I was so happy and I am really glad I booked this cruise. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. My husband and i had a truly enjoyable night. We managed to see and experienced how these boatmen live in this boat. We could also see the beautiful symphony of light through different perspectives. I truly recommend this activity to those who are searching for something unique to do in Hong Kong. I love Dukling!
It was very very Nice, especially the view at 18:30 because you can see the bay under the sunset and by night !
Incredible experience and worth being able to see all of the harbor and being able to enjoy the music and the lights when the sun sets period
Very good. The atmosphere is nice and the wind is cool (very cool). The boat is right on time. I recommend waiting. The boat arrives exactly at 5:30 p.m. There are drinks served on the boat.
This is a great way to see the Harbor. Lots of room on the boat and a beverage for your cruise. They give a short history of the Dukling Junk boats which is neat. I would recommend this to everyone.
Nice looking relic from post WWII era. Originally a fishing boat converted to a tour vessel, leaving all the old wood structure preserved. Every guest had their free drink. Tour guide was knowledgeable. Only down side is that all the sails were not hoisted up to look like a true Chinese junk. 😁
The pier is a little far away, so you need to leave time to walk there. We were too tight on time, but fortunately we made it. The wind was quite strong, so you need to wear windproof clothes. It was a good experience
