    I had a very good day, we took a cable car up to the village Nyong Ping, from where the Tian Tan Buddha sits. Our tour guide was excellent, offered to take me back, but I decided I wanted to return by underground, so he gave me the directions, and off I went. I must say Hong Kong underground is fabulous. Another fabulous day with Viator thank you.

    Get there on time...its a long day and worth the bus-cable car- boat to Lantau Island! Layer and bring water. Plenty of bathroom breaks.

    The trip overall was a very good iti crazy. However it took way to long to go up to the Bhudda. Skip the line was very long.

    Beautiful site and great tour guide!

    A must if staying in Hong Kong a few nights. GL tours and our guide Ken, we’re very well organized. The only downside was the stop at a jewellery store at the end of the tour. It wasn’t necessary but we were told it was compulsory.

    Great, well organised and timed tour by Ken. Can't fault this tour, if you want a stress free tour of Lantou Island this is a great option. Be sure to choose the option with the return cable car and return to the city or arrange a train back to the city after the return cable car.

    Mixed Grouping

    Lawrence_R, Nov 2025
    The trip was very good, however there was two different groups on the trip, we were together for some things then split into two groups one was taken back to city centre the other had to find their own way back, if you are not familiar with Hong Kong, it can be very stressful, we had to get the cable car down then find the MRT station and change 3 times to get to our hotel.

    Thank you for your positive review and we look forward to serving you and your family again on your next visit to HK. We do offer an option with return transfer, for easier return trip!

    No Return Trip and Long Lines

    Steven_T, Nov 2025
    The tour advertised as skipping the line at the cable car but waited 90 minutes in line. Next we were told our tour did not include return transportation back to hotel. So we ended up leaving the tour and heading back via a taxi! Avoid Viator for this tour.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Thank you for your review. Please note that our tour includes one way up priority cable car only, which is stated on the itinerary. Also, you have booked the tour that ends at Ngong Ping village, to allow for free time to explore. We are sorry that the tour didn't meet your expectation, we do hope to serve you again on your next visit.

    Terrific day out. Requires walking, not suitable for aged or unfit. Chaos at meeting point but that's Hong Kong. Excellent guide, comfortable coaches, The actual cable car ride is incredible.
