Iconic Hong Kong experiences showcasing the city’s strengths beyond financial fields
Classic Peak Tram & Sky Terrace 428 Visits for a perfect elevated panorama
Guests were transported from the buzzing conference hall to serene Peak views in less than 20 minutes, in an awe-inspiring journey on the funicular Peak Tram leading to a full experience of Sky Terrace 428 and a stroll to the Lion’s Point View Pavilion for stunning views. The group was also mesmerised by the Hong Kong-style snacks and toys at a corner store full of local nostalgia, taking pictures to recollect their memories in Hong Kong.

Dr. Jochen Biedermann, Managing Director of World Alliance of International Financial Centres from Germany said, “Taking part in AFF for exchanges is for the mind, whereas joining the night tour to the Peak on the tram was a feast for the eyes. I enjoyed it very much. I was here like 10 years ago and it's nice to be back. The Peak Tram station now is very modern, nicely illuminated and colourful. The Peak is definitely one of the most attractive points of Hong Kong for tourists and business people like me.”
Aqua Luna ride for stunning Victoria Harbour experience
Soon after the event concluded, guests were invited to cruise on characterful Aqua Luna red-sail junk boat, taking in breathtaking skyline views.

Marc Baghadjian, CEO & Co-founder of Hypercard American Express from New York said, "I love this Aqua Luna tour! Hong Kong is so special where everybody comes to this city to do business. When we're in the room negotiating, you don't see how beautiful parts of the city are. But when you take a tour like this (to see) the stunning Hong Kong skyline and (feel) the vibrancy of the city, you can see the Hong Kong dream here."Explore cultural heritage in Old Town Central

Felix Katterl, Partner of Soutien Group from Qatar said, “It is my first visit in Hong Kong. It is a very diverse city. The tours allowed me to learn more about Hong Kong's history, Hong Kong's heritage. I've been wishing for health, prosperity, well-being, and peace in the world when sticking the gold foil on the deer. For Tai Kwun, it doesn't really look like a prison. It has been revitalised in a wonderful way with all these hospitality offerings, restaurants and bars. I really cannot wait to come back with my wife to show her this beautiful environment.”https://www.mehongkong.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/meetings-exhibitions-hong-kong
