Visited Tai O yesterday. Took the MTR to Tung Chung then there will be buses going through all places on Lantau Island. Took bus number 11 at Tung Chung Bus Terminal near Ngong Ping 360. It costs HKD$11.8/person on weekdays and HKD19.2/person during holiday. It took about 45 minutes to there.

Visiting Tai O Heritage hotel is a new thing to do. Initially it was a police station. It was preserved and now you can stay over. Quite interesting though a bit expensive. We didn't book the tour online and didn't manage to have a glace. What a shame.
Food in Tai O reveals Hong Kong culture. There are many local snacks and seafood is famous as it is a village surrounded by sea.
