The Big Buddha & Lantau Island - Private Tour with Private Car
Overview

Mobile ticket
Once scattered with farming and fishing villages, Lantau Island in Hong Kong hadn't been much developed until the late 20th century. Now it is a charming realm for the urban children to embrace the scenic nature and learn about the life of local fishermen and mountaineers with their well-preserved culture.
I have always love the beauty of Lantau Island. Being a food and culture journalist, there’re many insider stories that I'd love to share with you. With a private car, we shall have a flexible itinerary and see as many things as you wish to see in a few hours. I aim to bring in to you an inspiring yet relaxing tour to the must-see attractions as well as unknown hidden gems of the island. Take a mindful walk on the Wisdom Path towards the Big Buddha, get mesmerised by the colourful markets in the fishermen village, breath in the scenic landscape from a crystal cabin, and what's not to miss - taste different local treats hand-picked by your passionate foodie guide…

5.00My hubby and I were lucky to enjoy a private tour of Lantau Island with Ashley, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our stay in Hong Kong. Ashley is an absolute fountain of knowledge — from the history of China and Hong Kong to literature, religion, and local culture, she answered all our (many!) questions with incredible patience and clarity. Her passion, insight, and engaging explanations made every part of the tour truly captivating. We didn’t just see beautiful places — we understood their context and meaning, which made the experience so much richer. The car was very comfortable, ideal for exploring the island at our own pace, and the driver was discreet, professional, and reliable. We wholeheartedly recommend Ashley to anyone looking to discover Lantau (or any part of Hong Kong) in a thoughtful, enriching, and personalized way!
The perfect guide !

5.00This was a marvelous tour. Our guide Ashley was superb, very knowledgeable and personable and took us not only to the normal sights but added in a few private stops at places she likes. She also arranged the day perfectly, helping us avoid crowds at the Big Buddha and on the cable car ride down. Also picked out a great spot for us to have lunch. Just cannot say enough positive things about her!
Absolutely Amazing

5.00As seasoned travellers, I must say that our recent excursion to Lantau Island in Hong Kong was a most delightful surprise. The day began with a true revelation - the natural splendour of this locale far exceeded our expectations. The verdant landscapes were a sight to behold. The different villages were rich in culture and delicious local food. We discovered nice hidden gems that we could never find on our own. And of course, the must see Big Buddha was also impressive. But the true highlight of the day was our encounter with Ashley. Her intimate knowledge of Lantau's cultural heritage and historic significance was truly impressive. Yet it was her infectious passion and warm personality that transformed this tour into an immersive experience akin to being shown around by a close friend. I cannot recommend Ashley's tours highly enough. For the discerning traveler seeking to uncover the authentic heart of Hong Kong, her services are simply unparalleled. This was undoubtedly one of the most memorable experiences of my world travels to date.
