Forum visitors see range of tour highlights

The Tourism Board took people attending the Hong Kong Asian Financial Forum for an outing to experience the nighttime metropolitan appeal on land and around the harbor.

Around 100 guests went on a Victoria Harbor night cruise to sip wine on the junk Aqua Luna on Wednesday and also rode on the 1920s-style tram that showcases history and heritage.

One guest who was visiting for the first time said she fell in love with Hong Kong after experiencing the culture seen from the tram.

Another group of guests explored the cityscape on a Big Bus Tour - going around on an open-top vehicle - last night.

The HKTB also gave away 300 Hong Kong Palace Museum one-day admission tickets and 200 privileged access slots to the Plaza Premium Lounge at the Hong Kong International Airport, hoping the offerings and evening activities would enrich the forum guests' itinerary and serve to impress them.
