Did you always wish you had a local friend to take you around when you travel? Is communication a problem for you when you tour in Asia? Have always fascinated about the rich cultures of Hong Kong and Macau? Want to swift around like a local? I've been a tourist to other countries as well, so I understand the needs of being in another place unfamiliar to me. I want to be safe and I don't want to have to worry. Therefore, it's very important to me that my tour provides you with a no worries, safe and secure environment. I have lived in both cities of Hong Kong and Macau. My friends call me a street sider as I always love to explore and the small details of inner city living. I think this has been a habit of mine and has had something to do with growing up in the city of Melbourne, where little lanes corners will find yourself in a different world. I grew up in Australia through my teenage and early twenties life and now settles myself in here in Hong Kong. I have had 10 years of hospitality experience, where I learnt a lot about how tourists are and their needs. I am young, knowledgeable, local and most importantly I understand the differences between western and local cultures. As a guide, I advocate Reliability, Responsibility and Resourcefulness. Yet, I'm also a believer in tailored service. I believe all tours shall be different as everybody's needs and wants are different. It will be fun showing you the excitements of Hong Kong and Macau at the same time learn a little about your country and its culture too. This life is a learning experience. It goes by the saying, learns a little, gives a little. So I'm learning each day to be a better guide so that I can give you a memorable experience being on tour with me. I'm very flexible so you can truly enjoy your visit/vacation/holiday/getaway or however you would want to name it. I'm easy to talk to and friendly too. With me, you can enjoy, relax and chit chat, because apart from being your tour guide, I'm also your friend! I am a food enthusiast! If you are looking for a culinary experience, just count on me. Tell me what your likes and dislikes are of food, I'll bring you to the food that suits your needs. There's just too much good food to choose from that I myself can't get enough of! Hong Kong, Asia's world city has it all and I'll gladly show you. I have had friend's visits from overseas and I had previously organized private, authentic and original tours to great places. My goal is to take you off the beaten track to locations where you would never come on your own. To show and practice the local traditions and explore the streets of Hong Kong. For city tours, I always recommend using public transport. This is a fun experience and gives the best feel and maneuverability of the city. For trips out of the city, I will arrange a VIP van, it comes with upgraded interior and comfortable leather seats. If you have special wishes please let me know. Making tailor-made tours to match with your personal interests is what I do best. I can also assist you in planning your trip, suggesting places of interests other than our usual tour path, help you orientate, directing you on how to go to places. The best scenario is to take up one of my tours upon your arrival, get a feel of the local area and with our planning, you will have confidence going around on your own with a breeze seeing all that you want to see.

Lantau Island is situated on the outskirts of Hong Kong promoting nature and tranquillity. With the Big Buddha being one of the most desired attractions here, it is often being missed due to its location and accessibility, yet this is the top attraction in Hong Kong. The NongPing360 cable car is the utmost direct transport up the mountain but often come with an hour wait in lining up before being loaded and vice versus. Not only time consuming but also missing out on some of the other amazing locations offered on Lantau, which the majority of its locations are situated within the restricted roads of Lantau where only limited vehicles are allowed to drive into the area. This tour provides full access into the restricted area with our vehicle taking you from anywhere in the city to Buddha direct! Look no further in seeing what Lantau has to offer in full and only within half a day so you can spend more of your valuable time enjoying Hong Kong.
We will begin from your hotel lobby, cruise ship, airport head straight to Lantau. The drive from the city will be around 45 minutes and will first explore Pui O which is a historic old seaside village right in the middle of South Lantau island. We will be able to see historic monuments that were built since the late 19th century including ancestral halls and as well as the Tin Hau temple that was built in 1798. Then, we will head towards Tai O fishing village in seeing "the Venice of Hong Kong" experiencing fisherman style living with its stilt houses right by the water, Kwan Tai temple built since 1741, the traditional shrimp paste and salted fish storefronts and of course beautiful water scenery that words cannot describe, only seeing is believing. We head up to Nong Ping to visit the giant Buddha, the Po Lin Monastery, Path of Wisdom and snacks at the temple and a stroll down Nong Ping village. This drive will be a truly amazing half day out seeing the natural sceneries of the untouched parts of HK.
