Amazing experience! The mixture of nature reflects the beauty of Hong Kong. You can see the green mountains with waterfalls, hiking trails and stairs in between, the sea and river, the beautiful buildings and the market. What makes it even more special, is The Big Buddha statue that is on top of the mountain! Unfortunately we missed the boat and dolphins’ experience since we arrived to the site very late (15:00) and it closes at (18:00). I highly recommend this adventure as a full day activity.

WOW. What an incredible experience. Sean was amazing ,he helped me overcome my fears on my 1st ever hike. Very knowledgeable about Hong Kong and its history. Phenomenal experience. A bight moment a bright memory on my journey through life. Thank you for this Amazing experience.

A very good option for me, but it's good before you know how much internet traffic you need. I had enough 5 GB for 11 days (1.5 GB google maps, 1 GB Safari, 500 MB whatsapp...).

Easy and no need to arrange pickup or anything. Would be nice if we can get a reminder/messages on starting and finishing time.
