Itinerary
Day 1: Tour Duration: 7 hours
9:00–10:00AM
Meet at Your Hotel Lobby and Drive to the Lantau Island
In the morning, your private English-speaking guide will collect you from your hotel. The starting time is flexible for you to decide. Your guide will call you at the hotel one day in advance or leave a message to double-check the collection time with you.
Your guide and driver will transfer you directly to Lantau Island. Drive along Tsing Ma Bridge as you enjoy good views along the way to Lantau Island.
10:00AM–1:00PM
Po Lin Monastery and Ngong Ping Market
Visit Po Lin Monastery, one of Hong Kong's principal centers of Buddhism. It boasts the world's largest seated outdoor bronze Buddha statue on the mountain peak.
Take the Ngong Ping 360 cable car to have a dramatic view of the Big Buddha (one-way ticket is included).
Visit Ngong Ping Market, and enjoy a vegetarian lunch (at your own expense) at the monastery, which is famous for providing high quality Buddhist vegetarian cuisine in Hong Kong.
1:00PM-3:00PM
Tai O Fishing Village
Continue to Tai O Fishing Village, where the traditional life on water is well-preserved. It's a little village with many houses built on stilts over the water. People get to their houses by walkways or by boats, so it's sometimes called the 'Venice' of Hong Kong, offering a glimpse into Hong Kong's past and provide a striking contrast with the modern city.
3:00–4:00PM
Drive Back to Your Hotel
