If you are in Hong Kong for a few days and have some time to yourself, or need an exciting corporate trip, then escape the city and head off into the New Territories. The area is stunning and a company called Kayak and Hike (owned by a guy called Paul Etherington) can arrange fantastic trips. You take an exhilarating ride out around the islands on an ex-marine police boat, kayak through incredible sea arches and eat in a gorgeous fishing village. You get to see a truly hidden side to Hong Kong. A great way to unwind and take a break from the skyscrapers.

This is a perfect place to start kayaking in the south of Stockholm archipelago. Beautiful islands and easy to camp.

Don't just admire the stunning Rangitoto in the middle of the harbour - paddle there! A guided round trip takes 6 hours including a climb to the summit for great views of the city and harbour. For extra credibility try the evening option. It was amazing paddling back across the harbour in the dark, just a row of little lights bobbing across the silent water with the city around us. Fantastic.
