Cool sight and amazing views. But the inside is a little underwhelming. Be sure to have done some hiking practice before taking the 1000 steps as a lot of people were struggling.

We visited Lantau island in October.
Our main destinations were,
Tian Tan buddha
Ngong Ping Village
Wisdom path
Tai O fishery village
Fu Shan View Point
Cheung sha beach
We started our journey as early as possible. We arrived to Tung Chung around 10.30am. From MTR we walked pass through the bus terminal to the other side to take bus 23 to go to Ngong Ping Village. Wisdom path is also located in Ngong ping village. We covered all these areas within like 2hrs and took the bus No 21 to Tai O. Gets down at the last stop and keep walking through the village to and the trail path to Fu shan view point. It was a very sunny day there is no cover on top. We didnt spend much time there and we came to Cheung sha beach. You can take anybus that comes to Tung Chung from Tai O but you have to ask the bus driver to stop the bus to get off and the bech.

It was a steep hike, need lot of energy. Not recommended for a first time hiker. I reached the summit in 2hrs. (Without any support, but better you take your hiking stick unless you are experienced and seasoned with wasting energy)
On the summit you can find the camping chalets, which you can book in advanced.
It was a scenic hike with the views of all the sides of Hong Kong.
On top You can visit Heaven's Lake and RMs rock.

Lantau Island is the largest of Hong Kong's more than 250 islands. It is located to the west of Hong Kong Island and is almost twice its size at nearly 147 sq. kilometres. The island is mostly protected country park and rural lands and is considered a major 'green lung' of Hong Kong. It is also the location of Hong Kong International Airport and several major sightseeing venues and locations.
Lantau is where you will find Hong Kong Disneyland, the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, Village and Giant Buddha. The island is also home to numerous historical fishing villages, most notably Tai O which is west of the town of Tung Chung. This is a neat heritage location and place to view the rare pink dolphins which reside in the coastal waters nearby.
The island is also known for its beaches, particularly at the village of Mui Wo as well as the long and beautiful stretches of sandy shores at Cheung Sha. There are two country parks, Lantau North and Lantau South which protect nearly half of the island, encompassing numerous peaks, valleys, woodlands, coastline and HK's largest reservoir. The island also hosts some of Hong Kong's most popular hiking spots including the famous Sunset Peak Trail and the it 70-km Lantau Trail.
While travel around Lantau Island is quite limited compared to Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, there is regular and frequent transportation to the island by way of MTR, Airport Express, public buses as well as ferries to the village of Mui Wo in the south. There are limited accommodation options on Lantau with a few properties available at Mui Wo, Tai O and Tung Chung being the most accessible. You'll find restaurants, supermarkets, convenient stores and basic services such as banks and cash points at Mui Wo, Tung Chung and the Ngong Ping 360 Village and casual eateries and stores in other villages around the island in areas frequented by tourists.

There's so much to do here. Lantau Peak, Sunset Peak, Big Buddha, Tai O, just to name a few. Definitely worth spending an entire day or weekend exploring.

It's easy to get around HK and see the sights. Taking the cable car to see the Tian Tan Buddha provided long range views of the surrounding area.

We arranged a shuttle transfer as we were unfamiliar with the city. Once you get to your destination you find that it is fairly easy to get around.

I arrive to HongKong airport at 7am but wont check in hotel until 3pm. I was thinking to go visit the the big Buddha at Lantau island before heading to hotel. Any suggestions on what to do with my luggage? We only travel with a carry on and a back pack each so nothing bulky. Just not sure if we should be bringing it with us ( especially on the cable car). Thanks.

Hi If time permits it is better to keep luggage at hotel as after reaching Lantau and after cable car you need to walk like 1.5 mile approx and the steps at Big Buddha are stiff. Also 3 to 5 Sept 2019 the cable care is under maintenance.

Hi! I have a layover in Hong Kong for 10 hours. I am hoping to get the cable car from Tung Chung to Ngong Ping to the Big Buddha, then on to Tai O. However I am just wondering what transport you can then get from Tai O back to Tung Chung? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know that it will be easy to do too much with a short layover. Probably just around Lantau island is safer

It would cost you approximately 300HKD per person for round trip in a standard cabin. There are other options of choosing what type of cable car you want to opt for.
It would be good if you can atleast spend 4-5hrs there, so that you can visit all places without any hurry.
Carrying money is completely dependent on you. Because there are lot of shops, restaurants on top and if you are a shopaholic or foodie, its better to carry some extra cash. However most of them accept all types of credit cards & Forex cards.
Have a great time there !
