When you spent your tour in the busy streets of HK, going to Lantau Island and Tai O Village is definitely a break you need from the hustle and bustle of the city. Cool and fresh air with the view of the mountains and waters. Our tour guide, Eva Charm, was one of the highlights of the tour. Her energy, passion with her craft, and care for her group are truly commendable. She is very enthusiastic and full of fun. Her knowledge is also top-notch. guide: Eva Charm

We departed by bus with a multinational group. Even though I can barely speak English, I found the tour guide's English a little difficult to understand, but I was impressed with how hard they were trying. We also took a cable car, and my wife really wanted to see the Tian Tan Buddha, so 5 stars for that. She took breaks along the way as she climbed the 268 steps, and was very happy to have seen the Buddha (it seems like good things happened after we returned home). And even though it was short, strolling through the town of Tai O was a very precious and enjoyable experience. We returned to the hotel by MRT. Overall, there was plenty of free time, and it was a very satisfying tour.

Known as the "Venice of the East," it truly has that kind of atmosphere. Along the way, you can see the Tai O Heritage Hotel, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge tunnel, the coastlines of mainland China and Hong Kong, and the unique stilt houses. Children love it.

We boarded the boat around 5 PM in the late afternoon to see the stilt house area, where we saw egrets. Then we went out to sea to chase the sunset. The captain made a special stop so we could take great photos. We happened to catch the sunset, which was very beautiful and worthwhile.

Klook's prices are more favorable than buying tickets on-site. It was a wonderful experience. We passed by Hong Kong's unique stilt houses, and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. We even saw real dolphins!

Becky was an amazing tour guide! She gave us the opportunity to see the Hong Kong border and explore the local fishing village, sharing incredible insights and local knowledge along the way. Her friendliness and warm personality made the experience even better. Becky went above and beyond to make sure we found the meeting point easily and checked in with us throughout the tour to ensure everything was perfect. We really recommend this tour — and especially Becky as an operator. She made the day unforgettable!
