Hong Kong and Lantau Islan Holiday and Touring
Guides.
Hong Kong Travel and Holiday Guide - general visitor and sightseeing
information from a stop-over at Hong Kong (Kowloon).
There are also photos from around Hong Kong Island including a trip on Hong Kong's Peak Tram plus a couple of short walks
in and around The Peak on Hong Kong Island. We have never been on holiday or visited anywhere
remotely like Hong Kong - there are just so many people moving around wherever you go,
then there are the incredible skyscrapers and skyline plus shops selling anything you could want.
And yet it's surprisingly easy to leave the hustle and bustle of Kowloon and Victoria Harbour and find
yourselves some really nice quiet countryside (and welcome fresh air).
China's Lantau Island - a sightseeing day trip from
Hong Kong to Lantau visiting the world famous Big Buddha ( Tian Tan Buddha ) and
the beautiful Po Lin Monastery (which is a Buddhist retreat). Also a bus ride
from the monastery on down to the old Chinese fishing village of Tai O.
Singapore Travel
and Vacation Guide Republic
of Singapore Holiday and Travel Guide - Singapore is an amazing island to visit - it is also a
good choice for a stopover for a few days if you are heading out on the really
long trip/flight from Europe to perhaps New Zealand, Indonesia or Australia. We have some
information about restaurants, how to get around and so on plus there are a series of photographs which were taken around the harbour and
streets whilst we were on our Singapore Holiday plus other hopefully useful
visitor information about the island. There are also a few photographs taken
of some of the animals which live in the excellent Singapore Zoo - including pictures of several of
the Zoo's magnificent Bengal White Tigers. Please take a look around our
Singapore holiday and travel guide.
Indonesia's Holiday Islands of Bali, The Gillis, Bintan and Batam.
Bali Holiday Guide
The Indonesian holiday Island of Bali is one of
the most beautiful locations you can travel too in the world - lovely weather, fabulous beaches,
jungle, water sports, coral and not at all expensive - our holiday and travel

Ubud and Sunur. Information on costs, getting around and what you can do on this
Indonesian tropical island whilst on holiday.

there are three islands in the group with Gili Trawangan being the largest.
There are excellent water sports, beautiful beaches and you can enjoy a really
laid back holiday if you wish whilst staying on holiday on one of these islands.

Batam. The small but fairly well populated Indonesia island of Batam is now getting increasingly popular as a choice for long distance holiday
