    Booked online the evening before, and was contacted with meeting instructions by Becky Chan. The next morning however I was contacted by another guide, Christina, which was very confusing for us. When we arrived at the meeting point, there was more confusion about which guide we were with, and which group we were in. We had paid extra for cable car ride and were told lunch was included, but the guide (Becky) did not seem to have this information, however the issues were sorted out by her. Despite the company communication issues, we had a great day, and Becky was a very good guide, very informative and caring about her group. The Big Buddha, Monastery and Tai O were amazing things to see, and we very much enjoyed the day overall. We felt the trip was good value, compared to alternative all-inclusive trips we had researched. Lastly however, we found the queues for the cable car back to Tung Chung unbelievably long and slow (nearly 1 hr queueing) - it would have been quicker to get the bus back - the views were incredible though.

    Grace really looked out for us and was really passionate when sharing with us about her culture and what Hong Kong is really like. I found it very enriching. Tai O was a really nice place as we got to see how people live beside the sea and how they were able to make a living there too. She also taught us about the cultural importance of the Big Buddha Statue and the 12 Guardians. There was also a really cool “echo chamber” where we could hear ourselves when making a wish— which i really liked. Lovely and enjoyable tour.

  • Highly recommend excellent tour

    Grace is our tour guide for our lantau trip. It was our biggest joy to have Grace to be our tour guide for the day trip. She is knowledgeable about lantau island. She shared about the history. And Culture about the places. She also shared about the food and fun part in or around lantau. With her it was such a fun day at lantau island. All of us enjoyed the trip so much.. Tour of the lantau island to extra time for us to have a leisure walk around the Ngong Ping 360 and big Buddha! Sighting of wildlife during our dolphins boat ride and walking tour around Tai O learned more culture, It is our pleasure to have Grace with our group TOUR. Super recommend this to anyone.
