The centre of Buddhism in Hong Kong is the Tian Tan Buddha on Lantau Island. The Tian Tan Buddha or more simply the 'Big Buddha' is situated near the Po Lin Monastery and is one of the stops on our Hello Hong Kong Lantau Tour. The Tian Tan translates to Alter of Heaven and the platform that the statue sits on represents that alter. Constructed from over 200 bronze pieces she is 34 meters (112ft) tall and weighs whooping 250 tons! The constructions began in 1990 and was completed on 29th December 1993. The date is very important, as it is believed to be the day of the Buddha's enlightenment!

Something very interesting one notices going up 268 (two hundred sixty eight!!!) steps to see the Buddha closely, is not only the disbelief how on earth one did not faint going up 😉  but also that every feature of the Buddha is a symbol of religious relevance. For example the positioning of the right hand means "fear not". The left hand rests on the Buddha's lap, palm facing up to heaven which represents "fulfilling wishes", implying the vow to grant blessing and happiness to all.

Take a Private Lantau Island Tour with us and you will come across more interesting details about the people of Hong Kong and their beliefs. Ask your Hello Hong Kong Tour Guide about the big fire of Tai O many hundreds years ago and the miracle that put it out... it's a very interesting story!

There is no doubt that Hong Kong is a city full of contrasts! Buildings of the 19th and early 20th Century are in midst of skyscrapers built in the 21st century. You get the leisure tourist crossing the road next to the stressed businessman. You find tranquilty in the Hong Kong Park right in the rush hour. Then you decide on your Private Customised Hong Kong Tour to observe this world from a bird's angle. To fulfil this wish, your brillant Hello Hong Kong Tour Guide will take you up Victoria Peak! But not to the regular observation desk... Oh no... Your guide has a much better idea... You will be brought to a little known lookout point and be amazed by the view, knowing that you don't have to share this stunning view with thousands of other tourists! You are so astonished by this moment that your romantic side takes over control and you create YOUR very own Best Hong Kong Tour Moment on your day tour in Hong Kong! Lucky for you, your Hello Hong Kong Guide is there for you and takes an unforgettable picture while you fell in love again with your partner! We will be happy to help you plan your romantic trip ❤️

There are many cities in the world that you will recognise by looking at a picture of their skyline. For example the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the skyline of New York, the skyline of Sydney with the famous opera. However, Hong Kong, home to Hello Hong Kong (the name gives it away 😉), has one of the most breathtaking skylines in the world! It is so impressive, that even the international building database Emporis named it number 1 out of 25 best city skylines that included New York, Bangkok, and Sao Paolo, according to Business Insider! Hong Kong has approximately 7840 high rise buildings and over 150 are standing taller than 150m (492ft). On your next sightseeing tour in Hong Kong ask your Hello Hong Kong Guide to take the famous Star Ferry over to Tsim Sha Tsui where you will be able to take a picture of this magnificent skyline.

Thinking of Hong Kong, the first thing that comes to mind might be the hustle and bustle of the city. You might think of tall buildings, or you might still think about the fabulous Dim Sum Breakfast you had on your last Hello Hong Kong Food Tour! Did you know that in mid-2014 the land population stood at 6 690 persons per square kilometre? That makes Hong Kong one of the most densely populated places in the world!  With over 7 million people in a city it is hard to find tranquility and take a break from everyday life. On your next Hong Kong Private Tour, let us take you to Long Ke Wan Beach in Sai Kung and see the contrast to Hong Kong City for yourself! Ask your Hello Hong Kong Guide to take you up the mountain or to the beach and take a break from the city life! #hellohongkongtours #hellohk #hk #tourism #travelbug #natgeotravelpic #lonelyplanet #takeabreak #ilovehk #hellohk #hongkongtour #peaceandquiet #tranquility #hikehk #beautifulhk #hiking #nature #beaches #saikung #longkewan 

When you see mooncakes appearing in every stop of your Sightseeing Tour in Hong Kong, you will know it is that time of the year again! The Mid-Autumn Festival! This long-held celebration was traditionally a thanksgiving for the harvest. The moon plays a main role and is symbolised by the mooncake. This round shaped delicacy represents completeness and unity, and is meant to be shared to bring family and friends together. Whether you are on a Private Food Tour, Private Customised Tour, or a Private Night Tour with us, just simply ask your Hello Hong Kong Guide to include a mooncake in your Personal Tour Hong Kong. #getinmybelly #goodeats #travel #traveloften #wanderlust #discoverhongkong #love #food #foodporn #eathongkong #foodie #foodadventure #hk #tourism #travelbug #hellohongkongtours #hkfoodie

The Confucian culture emphasises respect for one's parents, elders and ancestors. With this in mind, the sight of ancestral shrines on our walking tours in Hong Kong, are not rare. These shrines are dedicated to deified ancestors and progenitors of surname lineages or families in the Chinese traditional religion. Depending on the ethnic background these temple settings may vary. Your well informed Hello Hong Kong tour guide will be able to tell you more about it on your Hong Kong sightseeing!

When you are on our food tour in Hong Kong you will get to experience "Yum Cha". This is a Chinese style brunch that involes drinking tea (Yum Cha! literally: Drink Tea!) and eating Dim Sum. Traditionally, Yum Cha is practised in the mornings or early afternoons. The custom is to pour tea for others first before one's own cup. Good manners are to be the first to pour tea! So, if you want to impress your Hello Hong Kong Food Tour group and your guide, be the first to pour the tea for everyone! :-)

The amazing Hong Kong, where gorgeous green spaces are tucked in amongst the high rises! Hong Kong is famous for its business and nightlife. To balance out their fast paced lives, the Hong Kongese have many parks and greenery to recharge in the midst of concrete. This picture is of Hong Kong Park which is situated on Hong Kong Island just behind the bustling business district. You will be surprised how much wildlife and ecology Hong Kong has to offer; start discovering it on one of our Hong Kong Local Tours! #hk #tourism #travelbug #hellohongkongtours #ilovehk #hellohk #hongkongtour  #beautifulhk #nature #hongkongpark

Truly, the Venice of the Orient. Tai O is home to the Tanka people, a community of fisher folk who’ve built their houses on stilts. These unusual structures are interconnected, forming a tightly knit community that literally lives on the water. You can visit Tai O on one of our Tours of Lantau.
