Review for: 小島古蹟輕快遊 (粵語)

The environment is quiet and well-conserved; the WWF ambassador’s attentive, courteous and vivid explanations allow participants to quickly understand the history and current conservation significance of the mansion. It is definitely suitable for people who are interested in the history, natural ecology and conservation of Hong Kong and Tai Po, as well as families with children. .

Such a great and information session, learning about Hong Kong’s history (esp. Tai Po) and ecology. Tour guide also painstakingly explained to us the different types of trees/plants that are under protection by law as well how to reduce, reuse and recycle wastes to make our world sustainable for our next generations.

A year later, I participated in the "Guide Tour of Yuanzhou Tsai Garden and Coastal Exploration" again with my girlfriend 👭. I felt very good last time, but I like it more this time. The weather is super nice, there are blue sky and white clouds, and the weather is not too hot. It is perfect! Guide-Ms. Zhang was very conscious of taking us to visit and explain. A year ago, I did not listen carefully. This time I listened very carefully and learned a lot. The flowers, plants, and birds in the garden made the mind, body and spirit relax. ! We participated in the small crafts and refreshments at our own expense, and went to the class and sighed at the legal monuments. I gave this guided tour a full mark 💯. The happiest part is that I took a lot of beautiful photos, and thank you Miss Zhang for taking a group photo for us, I will visit again! 👍💕

Samantha's explanations were attentive and detailed, and she led a group of Taiwanese and Hong Kong families to know more about this land and see the rich resources on the beautiful ocean. She really wants to invite more friends to do environmental protection, resource recycling, reuse and bring their own environmentally friendly utensils, so that The land of Hong Kong can be more beautiful!

Review for: 元洲仔花園及探索海岸導賞團

Participate in a half-day guided tour of the Zuoyuan Chau Tsai Park Natural Environmental Protection Research Center 💚 There is a beautiful place in Taipu that is worth visiting the official residence of the former New Territories Secretary of State Affairs. It is a legal monument, Lijia, and you can learn more about plants. The changes along the coast of Tai Po are close to nature and the sun (super hot) Feeling the sea breeze blowing on your face is enough to satisfy today's blue sky and white clouds. The day is super nice, but the shadows are so beautiful! When you go by yourself Travel left 😆😆

Review for: 元洲仔花園及探索海岸導賞團

Well worth the trip! I was able to visit the legal monuments of the former residence of the Secretary for Administration of Tai Po and the coastal ecology of Tolo Harbour in Tai Po. I like the plants planted in the garden most, with many varieties and beautiful! The guide, Miss Zhang, explained it in detail and was worthy of praise. After the visit, WWF delivered instant coffee ☕️ for tasting, and coffee cups were presented to guests for guided tours. Our go to fruit day is 2020.3.28, which is the day when the government responded to the epidemic situation and learned that this activity will follow the suspension, it is really timely!
