Trip on a Sampan well worth the $10 fare, see the local fishing fleet, the Jumbo Floating Restaurant and the house boats. More

This is one of the best experience I had in Hong Kong. I love the sampan ride even though it is only for 20-30minutes. Paid around HKD30 per pax for the ride. Visited the famous Jumbo floating restaurant, fishing village and all those luxury private boats along the place. I'm quite phobia with deep water and yes, the sea really... More

If you live in HK it's definitely worth a trip. I'm not sure how much of a draw the floating restaurant would be, but I like the neighbourhood. More

I was very disappointed with this visit, you navigate alongside very tall and modern buildings and some old houseboats. There are some old fishing boats and a big restaurant, but besides this not anything worth a while. More

It is also the home to Aberdeen Marina, which the rich and famous park their yachts, and the famous Jumbo Kingdom (珍寶王國)... More

The junks city is a thing from the past. It burned in 1983 to allow building a few more sky scrappers. The floating restaurant is a tourist trap. Located far from the centre, it is just not worth the trip. More
