Hong Kong: Dukling , Antique Boat Tour in Victoria Harbour
★4.5(264)
Step aboard Dukling, a truly unique experience unlike any other Hong Kong harbour tour. As the city’s oldest and only original Chinese junk boat, Dukling stands apart from modern replicas—authentically built in 1955 as a fishing vessel and lovingly restored to preserve her legacy after sinking in 2014.
Dukling offers the rare chance to sail on a living piece of history that has witnessed Hong Kong’s dramatic transformation over 70 years. On this small humble boat, guests can enjoy Hong Kong’s world-famous night scenery as the city lights sparkle across the skyline, all in a calm, intimate setting, unlike big, crowded cruises.
More than just a sightseeing trip, Dukling is also a floating museum. Discover original artefacts, historic photos, and fishermen’s tools, and delve into stories and culture through insightful commentary. Whether you crave authentic heritage, relaxation, or breathtaking views, Dukling promises an unforgettable journey through Hong Kong’s past and present.

***Preserving this historic 70‑year‑old Chinese junk boat requires significant resources, which sometimes leads us to feature commercial promotions on the sails. From 23 to 26 March and 3 to 5 April, the sails will display commercial promotions, which may alter their appearance and color from the original iconic red during this period. Please note that the interior of Dukling has also been modified. Rest assured, there will be no change to the sailing route. Thank you for your understanding.***
