Things to do in Lantau Island

We went on a very sunny day, the weather was great. We took the Crystal Cabin. There were more sights on the right side – the airport, the big bridge... (Actually, you can see them more clearly from an airplane; the cable car isn't high enough). But on the left side, you can eventually see the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery. In the Crystal Cabin, it feels like you're standing on water and above the forest. I later realized that the Ngong Ping 360 advertisement features the panoramic cabin. I believe the panoramic cabin would give an even stronger 'person in the air' sensation. When we arrived, there were still decorations for the 20th anniversary, even though it had just ended. There's an Ngong Ping Bing Sutt (cafe) for photo opportunities. Inside the cabin, only the small windows open for ventilation, so it felt a bit stuffy. On the return trip, in a standard cabin, the sun hadn't set by 6:00 PM because it was summer, and clouds were covering the sun. I recommend allowing more time, 5 hours or more, if you want to visit the Big Buddha in addition to Po Lin Monastery. I didn't go up that day, not only because I didn't have enough time but also because it was too sunny; the weather only became overcast closer to 5 PM. I had been up before, so I didn't go again, but last time I took the bus only to the Big Buddha and didn't visit Po Lin Monastery.

Such a fantastic tour. The tour guide Jason was very helpful and guided us very well. I am so impressed. Definitely recommend.

The trip was fantastic. Truly enjoyed especially the cable car. The guides were truly experienced and they know their craft well.

This was a great way to see a lot of cool stuff in an organized fashion. We elected to get a crystal bottom car and really enjoyed the beautiful trip on the cable car. Our tour guide, Ivan, was very knowledgeable, communicated clearly, and had an entertaining personality. Highly recommend going to the mall afterwards to grab food. So many options!

Awesome tour, bus for in town pickup was on time, tour guide was friendly and helpful.

Overall, the RV was great, and the air conditioning was sufficiently cold, though the shower water pressure was a bit low. The service was good, and the foreign staff explained everything clearly! We purchased the BBQ set, and the food quality was excellent; it was enough to fill up three people! For water activities, my child and I chose surfing. The foreign instructor was very good, and my child, who was surfing for the first time, was already able to stand on the board. The RV rental seems to be operated in conjunction with the beach store, so many extra items like mosquito coils, insect repellent, beach supplies, sodas, and snacks are available at reasonable prices. This means you don't have to carry so many things all the way there! 😆

Great value for money. While I enjoyed Ngongping 360 round trip + Ngongping village very much, I will probably skip the Tai O village if I can do it all over again.

This snack voucher is a bit cheaper, but the discount isn't great because it can only be used for certain set meals. If you want to eat at other places, you can order à la carte. The selection is limited to only a few restaurants, not all of them. I hope there will be more options for us to use it, and hopefully better discounts.
