Rejseplan
Lantau Island omtales ofte som 'Lungerne i Hong Kong', fordi den er så grøn og underudviklet. Tag en rundvisning i Lantau med os, og besøg den ærefrygtindgydende Store Buddha og den vidunderlige maleriske bilsæby Tai O. Vores private Lantau-ture sidste 7 timer, 8 med en hotel afhentning. Din Lantau-private tur starter med en tur på Ngong Ping-kabelbanen. Du vil blive behandlet med den mest vidunderlige udsigt over Lantau Country Park og lufthavnen, når du rejser over bagsiden af øen i 25 minutter. Vores destination er den berømte Big Buddha. Her lærer du om buddhisme, klatre de 268 trin til Buddha, besøge Po Lin-klosteret og hallen med 10.000 buddhaer. Fra Ngong Ping er det en 20-minutters busstur til Tai O, kærlig kendt som Venedig i Hong Kong. Tai O er et af de få resterende steder i Hong Kong, hvor du stadig kan se staldhuse over vandet. Tai O var tidligere et stort samfund, men på grund af faldet i fiskerisektoren er det, ligesom Venedig, nu primært et turistmål for både oversøiske besøgende og Hongkongers undslippe byens stress og jag. Tai O er stadig kendt for sin traditionelle produktion af rejerpasta og for sit farverige marked for skaldyr.
Stig gennem himlen i Ngong Ping 360-kabelbane for at få en forbløffende fugleperspektiv af nogle af Hongkongs største naturlige og historiske seværdigheder. Når du træder ud af svævebanen, vil du blive mødt af den kulturelt tema Ngong Ping Village på 1,5 hektar, hvor en bred vifte af butikker og spisesteder tilbyder en dejlig shopping- og spiseoplevelse.
Det fjerne Po Lin-kloster, skjult væk af frodige bjerge, blev en populær attraktion, da den ekstraordinære Tian Tan Buddha-statue (uformelt kendt som Big Buddha) blev opført i 1993. Po Lin-klosteret er et af Hongkongs vigtigste buddhistiske helligdomme og er blevet kaldt 'Buddhist World in the South'. Dette kloster er hjemsted for mange en hengiven munk og er rig med farverige manifestationer af buddhistisk ikonografi, og dens behagelige have er levende med fuglesang og blomstrende dufte.
Tian Tan Buddha eller Big Buddha er den næststørste udendørs siddende bronze Buddha-statue i verden. Denne majestætiske bronze Buddha sidder 34 meter højt og vender mod nord for at kigge over det kinesiske folk og trækker pilgrimme fra hele Asien. Øjne, læber, hældning af hovedet og højre hånd, som er hævet for at give en velsignelse for alle, kombineres for at bringe en ydmyg dybde af karakter og værdighed til den massive Buddha, der tog 12 år at gennemføre. Klatre op på de 268 trin for at se nærmere på denne bemærkelsesværdige statue og for at nyde den vidunderlige udsigt over bjergene og havet, der kan ses fra dens base.
Tai O er hjemsted for Tanka-befolkningen, et samfund af fiskere, der har bygget deres huse på pyntegrøder over tidevandslejlighederne på Lantau Island i generationer. Disse usædvanlige strukturer hænger sammen, og danner et tæt stramt samfund, der bogstaveligt talt lever på vandet. Deres fortryllende verden er en fotografens paradis. Den manuelt betjente bro, der spænder over den smalle bæk, der deler byen, erstattede en reb-trukket 'færge', der kørte i over 85 år.
Et besøg på Heritage Hotel, der stammer fra 1902, og denne bygning var tidligere Tai O Police Station og en af de tidligste politistationer, der blev bygget i de nye territorier. Det ligger på en lille bakke ved siden af Tai O Ferry Pier. Bygningen blev revitaliseret og omdannet til Tai O Heritage Hotel i 2012. Hotellet inkluderer ni værelser og suiter i kolonistil med havudsigt og en tagrestaurant, der serverer Tai O-specialiteter. De omgivende kanoner, søgelys og vagttårne er alle blevet restaureret. Her får du serveret frokost efter afslutningen af din tur.

We had an incredible tour with Sinclair—truly the best guide we’ve ever had. He was knowledgeable, funny, and super accommodating to our group’s needs. His energy made the entire experience unforgettable. From the Big Buddha to the rest of Lantau, every stop was made better by his insights and humor. 10/10—Sinclair is the best!
Hi Oscar, thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you had such an unforgettable experience with Sinclair. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. Hope to welcome you on another adventure soon!
Sinclair was a wonderful guide. He provided great information and insight into what we saw on the tour. Made the experience much richer than if I had done these sights on my own. Well worth the expense.
Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed your tour with Sinclair. Hope to see you again!
Kiyo was a great guide for our full day visit to Lantau Island! I would highly recommend that if Lantau Island, Big Buddha, Tai-O and the Monastery are in your plans, hire a guide and ask for Kiyo!
Hi Tracy! Thank you so much for the lovely feedback! We're thrilled to hear you had a great time exploring Lantau Island with Kiyo. He’s passionate about sharing the island’s rich history and hidden gems, and we're so glad that came through during your tour. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to him!
We had the most fabulous time with Alfred. He was well on time, friendly and enthusiastic about the day ahead. We went straight to the cable car station via the metro and were able to upgrade to a Crystal cabin which he helped us arrange. He took lots of photos for us and was very knowledgeable about all aspects of Hong Kong, past and present and great to chat to. The cable car ride is a must, as is Big Buddha and the Lotus Temple is beautiful. The bus ride to Tai O was comfortable and short and the village is very interesting. We enjoyed the boat trip and meal at the Hotel which is included and returned to our hotel a little tired but very happy. I can’t recommend this trip enough and would ask for Alfred again if we ever come back to Hong Kong.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a fabulous time with Alfred and that he made your day so enjoyable. The cable car ride, Big Buddha, and Tai O are definitely highlights, and we’re glad Alfred helped make the experience smooth and memorable—including arranging the Crystal Cabin upgrade and capturing great photos for you. We truly appreciate your kind recommendation and would love to welcome you back to Hong Kong in the future. We’ll be sure to pass along your compliments to Alfred—he’ll be delighted to hear them! Wishing you many more amazing travels!
We had an amazing day with our guide Alfred who was very knowledgeable and attentive and made the trip very enjoyable. Lantau is definitely worth a trip if you are in Hong Kong. The Big Buddha is a wonder, and the trip to Shek-O was also very interesting. Alfred showed us some different temples and explained the different religions and beliefs in detail. He also took lots of photos for us. Lunch was very good too. Our only issue was the listing, which we found misleading. We booked when we were already in Hong Kong so assumed that the price shown was in HK dollars, however it was actually in US dollars which we only realised when the cost appeared on our bank statement. Since we were in Hong Kong when we booked, and are UK based it never occurred to us that the price would be in US dollars, and the listing didn't show this - it just showed the dollar sign, not which dollars we would be paying. This made the cost a lot more than we had anticipated. Having said that, we had a great day, and would definitely recommend Alfred as a guide.
Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear you had an amazing day with Alfred and enjoyed exploring Lantau Island, visiting the Big Buddha, and learning about the temples and different religions. Alfred will be delighted to know you appreciated his attentiveness, detailed explanations, and the wonderful photos he took for you. It’s also great to hear you enjoyed lunch! Regarding the pricing issue, we’d like to clarify that Viator has control over the currency displayed on each traveler's webpage. We recommend contacting them directly to address this matter, as we understand how this could have been confusing. We’re thrilled that the tour itself met your expectations, and we truly appreciate your recommendation of Alfred. We hope to see you again for more memorable experiences in the future
Excellent trip with fantastic guide. I really enjoyed the cable car ride and the trip to the fishing village. The lunch at the old police station with the view of the bay was the best.
Thak you very much! we are glad you have a lovely time on your Private Lantau Tour! Until next time!
Kiyo was so. Pleasant and knowledgeable about so many aspects and subjects relating to Hong Kong. He is one of the best tour guides we have hired. Will definitely recommend him to my friends when they pass through Hong Kong.
Hi Amel, Kiyo says thank you for the lovely review and recommendation! Stay Safe!
The entire trip was amazing. Our guide Sinclair was knowledgeable and professional. We got to know a lot about the local culture and history during the trip. I will definitely recommend to anyone in the future. Thank you for the experience.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy to hear you had an amazing trip and enjoyed learning about the local culture and history with Sinclair. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We hope to see you again for more adventures in the future!
We had a fabulous day, we were very lucky to have Sinclair as our guide. He was amazing, he had some much knowledge, made the tour fun and he took lots of great pictures. He met us at our hotel and we took the underground train to the cable car. We had our own cable car and travelled up to the site of the Big Buddha. We climbed the steps to see the Buddha and also went inside. Sinclair talked us through the history. We then visited the monastery and temple before traveling by bus to the fishing village. We then took a boat around the harbor and searched for the white dolphin. We finished our day with a visit to the local shops and a delicious traditional meal. Sinclair made it a very memorable day.
Hi John, thank you for sharing your fabulous day with us! We're thrilled that Sinclair made your tour so memorable with his knowledge and fun spirit. It sounds like you had an amazing adventure, from the Big Buddha to the fishing village and the delicious meal. We're glad Sinclair could capture those great moments for you. Hope to see you again soon!
