Long day out - Lovely day out. Was a little rushed at times. We opted for the lunch. I think this made time tight. We may have been better getting food on the hoof

Great Way To See The Big Budha. - This was a very well organised tour with Ricky ensuring everyone was kept together and knew where to meet. It was very easy to get on the cable car with the fast pass, there were certainly long queues for normal tickets. There was enough time to see everything and the transfer to the fishing village and back was very well organised. The transport there and back to the Kowloon Hotel was also well organised, however I think the instructions to get to the meeting point should say that it is just off Nathan Road, not on it.

Good tour, long day - Rex was great! Thank you Rex!!! Unfortunately, we got behind by someone in our group who chose to stand for 20 minutes waiting g for the tram ticket office to open, only to decide she needed to go the the bathroom right before boarding. That put everyone else behind waiting for her group to arrive at Ngong Ping. Not Rex’s fault, but very frustrating nonetheless. The tour was great, Rex is very knowledgeable and easy to understand. The entire tour was in English. When we got to the lunch area, the servers refused to acknowledge us so we sat for nearly 15 minutes waiting. We both wanted to walk up the steps to the Big Buddha, so we opted to leave and forgo lunch. If we had waited, there would have not been time, so that was quite frustrating. Other than that, the tour was really good. Would not choose the lunch and just dine on your own.

It is a nice tour... - It is a nice tour Avoid Sundays because the place is too crowded Something that I didn’t like is that you have one way priority access to cable car so on the way back the queue was a nightmare (and you get this information after the payment) Also skip the vegetarian lunch because is too expensive and there are a lot of other options
