A must in Hong Kong - A must when in Hong Kong. Cable car journey and the view were amazing. It can be very long queue so go early. We went on Wednesday and around 11 am. It was HK$270 for standard and HK$360 for the Crystal Cable Car!

Lantau Island Tour with Grace is the best - Visiting Hong Kong and booked a day trip with Viator to do the Lantau Island Tour. Our tour guide was Grace who was exceptional. From the time of receiving confirmation, providing detailed instructions on how to get from our accommodation to the meeting point, the tour itself and getting back to our starting point Grace ticked every box and went above and Beyond our expectations. She is an absolute delight and made the tour so much more enjoyable. The tour itself was amazing despite the heat. We loved visiting Tai O and the Buddha is a sight to behold. Highly recommend this tour.

HK Lantau with Grace - Our tour became exceptional even if the weather was not stunning. Our tour guide Grace would be so far the best tour guide that we have ever hired. We travel a lot and no one is as patient and detailed as Grace. She is knowledgeable, entertaining and animated. She’s very funny too! We would highly recommend this tour and Grace! Excellent work!

Family time - Visiting the Big Buddha on Lantau Island with my family was a remarkable and enriching experience. The journey itself, either by cable car or bus, set the tone for the day. We chose the Ngong Ping 360 cable car, and it was a thrill for everyone in the family, offering stunning panoramic views of the island, lush green mountains, and the South China Sea. My son was especially excited by the glass-bottomed cabins, which added a fun element to the ride. When we arrived at the Ngong Ping Village, the atmosphere was peaceful yet lively, filled with traditional architecture and shops selling souvenirs and snacks. The Big Buddha statue came into view as we walked closer, and it was truly awe-inspiring. Standing at 34 meters tall, the statue is a magnificent symbol of peace and spirituality. The serene surroundings made it a perfect spot for reflection, and we spent a few moments just taking in the sight before starting the climb up the 268 steps. Once at the top, the view was absolutely breathtaking. We could see the lush landscapes of Lantau Island stretching out below us, and the gentle breeze added to the tranquil atmosphere, it was a beautiful moment to share as a family. We also visited the nearby Po Lin Monastery, which offered more opportunities to explore Buddhist culture. The intricate architecture and peaceful gardens were a nice contrast to the grandeur of the Big Buddha. We made time for a vegetarian meal at the monastery’s restaurant, which was delicious and a nice way to immerse ourselves further in the experience. Overall, the visit to the Big Buddha on Lantau Island was a perfect family outing. The combination of natural beauty, cultural exploration, and the sense of tranquility made it a memorable experience for all of us. It’s a place where you can relax, learn, and enjoy time together as a family in a unique and spiritual setting. I would highly recommend it for families seeking both adventure and cultural enrichment.

Definitely worth the time! - Easy meet spot, clear directions, knowledgeable tour guide, yummy local eats, beautiful sights, and expressive Big Buddha!!

Lantau Experience - Grace was a wonderful guide. Very generous with her knowledge. She went above and beyond duty helping us with public transport and other sights to catch.

Very disappointing - We booked this trip the day before and received the details that it was all confirmed. Meeting time was 10:30am outside an MTR station exit B. We were there from 10:15am. Half an hour later no sign of the guide. We called the company. They said they would contact the guide. We got a call then from the guide Ben asking us to hurry up and run over to the bus station. He was very rude to begin with considering the error was not ours. We were at the right place but no apology. He just said he never knew we were coming. We then had to sit on a public bus for 45 mins to bring you to a fishing village. Not a great experience. The village is nice. You then get taken in a little boat for about 10 mins. It’s just goes up yen canal out to sea for 5 mins and then back in. Only ok. We then have to take another public bus for 12 mins. This brought us up to big Buddha. The guide Ben did a good job explaining everything around big Buddha and the temples. We then stopped for food. The food is awful. The guide buys 4 big plates of noodles and shares them out onto smaller plates. Then a spring role and a rice pie thing and a pancake. Not great at all. You then get 30 mins to go see big Buddha and meet back. The guide encourages you to take the Cable cart down which is not included in your package so you have to pay $195 each to take this. Overall thoughts, just do it yourself. Very easy to find it on the MTR and then take the cable cabin. We paid €174 for two of us and definitely not worth it.
