This tour is uniquely designed exclusively for cruise passengers docking at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal. Unlike standard city tours, the itinerary is carefully synchronized with your ship’s schedule, ensuring a smooth experience and guaranteed on-time return for complete peace of mind.

Limited to just 15 guests, this small-group experience offers a relaxed pace, minimal waiting time, and more personal interaction with your guide. The premium glass-bottom Crystal Cabin cable car is included as a core feature, delivering breathtaking 360-degree views over Lantau’s mountains and coastline.

The journey seamlessly combines the iconic Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery with the authentic charm of Tai O fishing village, including a scenic boat ride through traditional stilt houses. With round-trip pier transfers, cable car tickets, boat fees, and a professional English-speaking guide included, this is a truly all-inclusive, cruise-safe, and stress-free shore excursion.

Additional Info

Public transportation options are available nearby

Suitable for all physical fitness levels

At the cable car ticketing office, there are two counters: Individuos Entry and Group Entry. Most people will line up to buy tickets on site and enter through Individuos Entry. The normal waiting time is 2 hours. You will display a prepaid confirmation coupon to redeem a paper ticket at Group Entry. Usually less people line up here. Group Entry is a priviledge benefit for travel agents' customers only. It saves your time but you do not skip the line or break any rule.

When Ngong Ping Cable Car will be suspended to carry out bi-monthly regular scheduled maintenance, or closed due to severe weather warning, alternative coach transportation will be available during the cable car service suspension. This tour will be operated by coach transfer between Ngong Ping and Tung Chung.

All passengers need to agree for traveling with hand baggage only. Why? Your tour coach is for sightseeing only, no baggage room available, so your baggage will be put between seats. Please do not sign up this tour if you want to take big baggage with you.
