  • We will meet at Tung Chung MTR Station, where restrooms and coffee shops are available nearby for you to prepare fully before the journey begins.
  • We will ride the Ngong Ping 360 cable car, renowned for its world-class views, departing from Tung Chung to Ngong Ping. For an enhanced experience, we'll board the crystal cabin with a transparent floor, allowing you to admire the breathtaking scenery from multiple perspectives.
  • Ngong Ping Village was developed by the government to welcome visitors. Here, you'll find a wide array of souvenirs to choose from and a lot of nice photo taking spots. It serves as the essential gateway to the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery.
  • Tian Tan Buddha (Big Buddha)
    The Hong Kong Tian Tan Buddha is the world's second tallest outdoor bronze seated Buddha, standing at 34 meters tall and weighing 250 tons. Follow our Buddhist guide as you climb the 268 steps to learn about the symbolic meanings behind the statue's design—including its hand gestures, facial expressions, and various symbols—and explore the paintings and sacred relics, including the Buddha's sarira, housed within.
  • Po Lin Monastery
    Visit the Po Lin Monastery, whose construction began in the early 20th century, and discover the story of Buddhism's introduction to Hong Kong. Once a desolate area inhabited by foxes, Ngong Ping has transformed into a place with one of Hong Kong's most significant Buddhist temple. Join our Buddhist guide to delve into the fascinating philosophy and temple design behind this remarkable transition.
  • If you wish, join me on a 15-minute walk to a scenic spot at the foot of Lantau Peak. Here, you’ll encounter towering wooden pillars engraved with passages from the Heart Sutra, offering a deeper insight into Buddhist philosophy. Along the way, you can also observe some of Hong Kong’s fascinating native plants.
  • Unlike typical tour groups, we will take a taxi directly to Tai O, saving time and ensuring a more comfortable journey. Upon arrival, we’ll explore how this former fishing village evolved into a must-visit destination. Stroll through the narrow alleys of the market to discover dried seafood and local delicacies beloved by Hong Kong people—such as fish maw, sea cucumber, seahorses, and starfish. Additionally, you may choose to enjoy an authentic local lunch here, we will provide you recommendation accordingly.
  • Tai O Stilt Houses
    We will visit Tai O’s most unique architecture: the stilt houses over water. Dive deep into the traditional lifestyle and culture of the local fishing communities. We’ll also stop by a stilt-house-turned-café for coffee, and explore a temple dedicated to the spiritual beliefs of the fishermen.
  • Shek Pik Reservoir
    To conclude the tour, we will take a taxi directly from Tai O back to Tung Chung—saving time and ensuring a comfortable return. On the way, we’ll make a brief stop at Shek Pik Reservoir for a break. As one of Hong Kong’s largest reservoirs, it offers serene views and a distant glimpse of the Big Buddha on the mountain.
