Is it better to travel to Hong Kong with a group or cheaper to travel by yourself around Christmas?

Free travel: comfortable, no forced consumption, no need to look at the tour guide's face, time can be controlled by yourself, but the price is very high; Follow the group: cheap, worry-free. Needless to say, self-help tour and group tour have their own advantages, and what suits them is the best. As long as we adhere to this consumption principle, we can make the wisest choice!

Suggestion 1: It's also a good choice to travel with a group for the first time in Hong Kong and go on a self-help tour for the second time.

How to save money and be happy?

A. If you choose to travel with a group, most tour guides will take you to the shopping place, which is the most vulnerable place, so be extra careful.

Under normal circumstances, the prices of goods sold in these places will be higher than the market price. If you buy food or souvenirs, and the quantity you buy is relatively small, you might as well spend it there, which will also make the tour guide happier. If the quantity is relatively large, it is recommended to go to the supermarket to buy it, which can save a lot of money.

B, if you buy watches, ornaments, high-end handicrafts and other items, you'd better go to a professional store to buy them yourself. If you really want to buy in the shop designated by the tour guide, don't forget to make a counter-offer and ask for an official invoice.

Suggestion 2: If you choose a self-help tour, you'd better log on to the Hong Kong Freetravel website in advance to check the information and learn from the experience of the "pioneers". Many articles about self-help tours in Hong Kong are of great practical value.

What I want to remind you here is not to blindly believe the opinions of taxi drivers. The consumer places they introduced are likely to have kickbacks, so it's much cheaper for you to go by yourself. If you go out to eat, you'd better choose a hotel recognized by the local people. It's a good idea to ask the receptionist at the hotel.
