  This tour was just okay. 1st off, our tour began with public transportation. There was no private tour bus for our group. Given our tour was on public transport, there was no history or information about the villages and areas we passed. This was a big disappointment. The fishing village, Tai O was interesting and Ken provided some interesting facts and history about the village. The big buddy was a nice tourist trap. There was a working monetary on the property, which was interesting. The cable car was down for maintenance, which we knew about prior to our trip. I'm sure if the gondola was running, this trip would have been much better. Lastly, Ken did not return to the pickup spot with our group. He left us after the big buddy visit. He arranged transportation back to the train station with another tour group. This was a disappointment for several in our group.

• Great Highlights, but Can Be Done Without a Tour

  This half-day tour of Lantau Island covers all the must-see sights, including the Big Buddha, Tai O fishing village, and the optional Ngong Ping cable car. Our guide Angela was friendly and knowledgeable, offering interesting historical and cultural insights along the way. The small boat ride in Tai O was a nice touch, and we appreciated the convenience of having transport logistics handled. That said, much of this tour could be done independently. The Ngong Ping cable car is easy to book on your own, and public transport to Tai O is straightforward. While the guide added value with explanations, the sites themselves are well-marked and accessible for self-guided travelers. The possibility of seeing pink dolphins was exciting, but sightings aren’t guaranteed, so keep expectations realistic. Lunch was good, but would have liked to have dined in Tai O more so than in the temple areas to have a more local experience. Overall, this tour is great for those who prefer a structured experience with minimal planning, but budget-conscious or independent travelers may find it just as rewarding (and cheaper) to explore Lantau on their own.
