5 Unmissable Safaris In Asia: A Unique Adventure For The Whole Family

1/5/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
As a mom of two animal-loving kids, I always try to include nature-based activities in our family travels. One of the experiences my children adore the most is visiting safaris - places where they can observe, interact with, and learn about animals from all around the world.

At first, I thought safaris were just places to look at animals. But the more we visited, the more I realized these were incredibly enriching learning experiences for kids. They get to have fun while gaining real knowledge about wildlife - something no textbook can fully deliver.

In this post, I’ll share the top 5 safaris we’ve visited as a family and what made them so memorable. I’ll also reveal how I book safari tickets for the whole family in just 2 minutes using the Klook app - no queues, no stress, and with discounts of up to 30% off!

Why Book Safari Tickets Via The Klook App

I’ve been using Klook since my solo-traveling days - back when I booked shows and fun tours abroad. Now, as a parent, Klook remains my go-to app every time we plan a family trip. Here are three reasons why I always choose Klook for our tickets.

Trusted Partner Of Airlines And Major Attractions

Klook works directly with airlines, travel companies, and world-famous attractions. That means tickets booked through Klook are reliable, often come with exclusive perks, and are backed by official partners. I once booked a safari with free shuttle service - something we wouldn’t get buying tickets on-site.

Exclusive 40% Off Deals For Members

Becoming a Klook member is completely free, and you get access to tons of exclusive deals - including regular 40% discounts on many family-friendly activities. Just by timing our bookings right, I’ve saved a lot on safari trips for our whole family.

A Massive Range Of Unique Attractions

Compared to other apps, Klook offers an incredibly broad selection of attractions and activities. From traditional zoos and conservation parks to immersive modern safaris, Klook lists detailed information, user reviews, and clear refund policies. I’ve never had a single issue during my years of using it.

Top 5 Safaris Our Family Has Visited

Each safari gave our kids a unique chance to bond with animals -from feeding alpacas, seeing giant pandas in real life, to watching birds fly freely in their natural habitats. Here are five standout safari destinations and the great deals we found through Klook.

Alpaca World - Korea

A refreshing green retreat about 1.5 hours from Seoul, Alpaca World was an instant hit with my kids. They got to feed and walk the alpacas themselves - such a wholesome and fun activity. Klook offered a combo deal with entry tickets, shuttle bus, and light snacks for 30% less than the gate price.

Mason Elephant Safari Park - Indonesia

Located in Bali, this is Indonesia’s largest elephant conservation park. We had the chance to ride elephants, watch live performances, and visit a mini-museum dedicated to these amazing animals. The kids were absolutely thrilled! Klook had a family bundle with over 35% off and free gifts like hats and souvenirs for children.

Luyu Island Capybara Ecological Park - Taiwan

This small yet heartwarming park is a paradise for capybara fans. My kids had seen countless photos of these gentle creatures online, but seeing them up close was a dream come true. Klook provided tickets with an English-speaking guide and free shuttle service.

Picture
Bali Bird Park - IndonesiaHome to over 1,000 bird species from around the world, this park was both fun and educational. My kids learned how to identify birds by sound, feather color, and natural habitat. Klook had a weekend flash deal offering 40% off, which helped us save quite a bit.

Chengdu Research Base Of Giant Panda Breeding – China

You simply can’t talk about Asian safaris without mentioning this panda haven! It’s both a conservation site and an educational attraction. My daughter even tried mimicking a panda’s waddling walk - too cute! Klook offered tickets with a local guide service included, all for a super affordable price.

Tips For Visiting Safaris With Young Children

As a parent, I’ve learned that a little preparation goes a long way in making safari visits both fun and safe for the whole family. Here are a few things I always keep in mind:

Study The Map And Plan The Route

Before we go, I always check the safari map and highlight key areas: restrooms, shaded spots, interactive zones. This helps us avoid unnecessary walking and maximize our visit time.

Pack Smart – Just The Essentials

I bring only what’s necessary: water, tissues, hats, and light snacks. Don’t overload - most safaris involve lots of walking, and carrying too much quickly becomes exhausting.

Wear Comfortable Clothes And Shoes

Stretchy clothing, sneakers, and wide-brimmed hats are must-haves. The kids can move freely, and we stay comfortable throughout the day. Avoid tight shoes that may limit mobility.

Be Patient And Let Kids Explore

Kids are curious and full of questions - sometimes nonstop! Be ready to explain things, walk with them, and let them explore at their own pace. It’s the best way to nurture their love for nature and learning.

Let Them Document The Experience

Bring along a kid-friendly camera or give them a phone with a camera function. Letting them take their own pictures not only makes them feel involved, but also helps them observe more closely. It’s amazing to look back at what caught their attention most.

Schedule Breaks And Snacks Wisely

Avoid tantrums by scheduling snack breaks and downtime. A small packed lunch in a shaded area can work wonders for resetting everyone’s mood and energy. It also gives you time to talk about what they’ve seen and learned so far.

Let Your Kids Explore, Learn, And Have Fun - Book Your Safari Today

Exploring the animal kingdom is more than just a fun outing - it’s a chance for children to understand wildlife, the importance of conservation, and how they can protect the environment. If you’re looking for an educational, exciting, and easy-to-plan family activity, don’t overlook these incredible safaris.

Top Most Beautiful Islands In Asia: How To Prepare For A Safe, Budget-Friendly Island Trip With Kids

1/4/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
My family has a special love for the sea. Nearly 80% of our annual trips are to coastal places with blue water and white sand. And among them, the islands of Asia always bring back the most unforgettable memories - from breathtaking views to great service and how family-friendly they are, especially for young kids.
​
If you're planning a beach vacation with your family - especially with small children - then this is the post for you. I’ll share the top 4 most beautiful islands in Asia my family has visited, along with tips on how to make the trip as safe and cost-effective as possible. At the end, I’ll also show you how I use the Trip app to book flights, tours, and find crazy-good deals!

Why Does My Family Always Book Island Tours Through The Trip?

I’ve been using the Trip app since before I got married, and I’m still loyal to it today. At first, it was just super convenient (everything you need in one app), but over time, I realized Trip offers some unbeatable advantages when booking island vacations.

Stackable Deals – Save Up To 60%

One big reason I keep using Trip is that it helps me score island tours at shockingly low prices. Every time we plan a new trip, I just open the app, check for discounts, and boom - I find packages that are 40–60% off, covering flights, hotels, and full tours.
Especially during weekends or big sale days (like 9.9 or 11.11), the deals get even deeper. For a family of 4, you could easily save $300–400, which is enough to cover an extra seafood feast!

Fast Booking – Flexible Refund Policies

Compared to calling around or checking a bunch of sites, booking island tours on Trip is way faster. I can pick travel dates, view complete itineraries, see transport times, and check if meals are included - all in one place.
The best part? Many tours offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before. That’s a lifesaver when you have kids and unexpected things come up, like illness or bad weather.

Tour Options For Every Kind Of Family

Trip offers tons of island tour options, depending on your travel style and needs:
  • Have young kids? Go for short, easy island trips
  • Traveling in a big group? Choose villa + private transfer combos
  • Love adventure? Try island-hopping, night fishing, or coral snorkeling
Everything’s clearly listed in the app - real photos, real reviews. It saves me hours compared to piecing everything together manually.

4 Islands In Asia My Family Will Never Forget

Now to the good stuff - here are 4 islands in Asia that we’ve visited and absolutely loved. Trust me, these are the kinds of trips that stick with you for life.

Bali, Indonesia

Nicknamed the "Island of the Gods", Bali offers a magical mix of stunning beaches, deep spiritual culture, and lush nature. We went surfing at Kuta, visited ancient temples like Pura Lempuyang, explored rice terraces in Ubud, and relaxed in luxurious resorts. Tour packages online usually go for $1,400 for 4 people, but with Trip, we paid just $840 - a huge saving! That leftover cash covered a full seafood dinner for the whole family.
Picture
Koh Lipe, Thailand

​
Koh Lipe is small, quiet, and way less crowded than Phuket or Krabi. It’s the perfect peaceful island getaway if you want to fully unwind. The shallow, calm sea was perfect for my son to play in safely. My husband loved it - though for toddlers, it’s a bit too chill.

Palawan, Philippines

Located on the western edge of the Philippines, Palawan is often called “the last frontier.” The island is stunning with limestone cliffs, emerald waters, jungle forests, and secret caves. You can kayak through caves in El Nido or snorkel in Coron’s coral gardens.
It’s not as hyped as some other islands, but believe me, it’s worth visiting. It has that perfect balance of rustic charm and lively local culture.

Jeju Island, South Korea

One of our earliest trips with the grandparents was to Jeju Island. It’s famous not just for its scenery, but for its thoughtful services and accessibility. Clean air, easy sightseeing, and a slow pace make it great for both kids and older adults.
This was the first island tour I booked through Trip and it totally sold me. I got a 5D4N tour package for just $1,120 for all four of us - and they even threw in a free tangerine farm visit. Rough estimate? We saved up to 60% compared to regular rates.

Tips For Planning A Safe, Budget-Friendly Island Trip With Kids

After many family island trips, I’ve learned some very helpful tips to make every adventure smooth and safe. Save these for your next island getaway!

Book Tours And Transport In Advance

Always book your tours, flights, or boat transfers at least one month ahead. This gets you better prices and avoids the fully-booked chaos during peak seasons. Trip makes it easy to book full combos - tour + transport + hotel - in one click.
Bonus tip: Always choose packages that include insurance and round-trip transfers for extra peace of mind when traveling with kids.

Boat Safety Tips For Kids

Kids are naturally curious and unaware of risks, so teaching them island travel safety is key — especially on boats. Here’s what we always prepare:
  • Mild motion sickness medicine (ask your pediatrician first)
  • Light jackets or scarves (boats can be windy and chilly)
  • Keep your child seated at all times - no roaming allowed onboard
Also, pick islands with short boat rides (under 1 hour) to avoid long travel discomfort.

Prioritize Family-Friendly Stays

Where you stay can make or break your trip. Luckily, Trip has a filter for “Family-Friendly” options that makes searching a breeze. I always go for places that offer:
  • Spacious rooms with small kitchens (great for milk prep or snacks)
  • Kids’ pool or play area
  • Close to the beach or tour pickup points (less walking = happier kids)

Islands Is Always Worth It - Book Your Trip Now
Picture
We’ve been to so many places, but it’s the islands of Asia that leave the most vivid memories. A quiet sunrise on Con Dao, soft white sand at Boracay, or snorkeling with the whole family at Koh Lipe - these are the moments we’ll never forget.

So, open up the Trip app, pick your dream island destination, and enjoy jaw-dropping savings - up to 60% off on your next unforgettable trip!

5 Unique Fall Vacation Activities You Must Try - Save Up to 40% on Peak Travel Season

1/4/2025

Picture
​I'm someone who absolutely loves traveling during the fall and early winter, when the air turns crisp, the skies are clear, and nature transforms into a stunning canvas of colors. Compared to the scorching heat of summer or the dampness of spring, a fall vacation feels both romantic and refreshingly calm. Every year, I try to plan a few trips between September and December to soak it all in.

But if you're part of the fall vacation fan club like me, you probably know this already: the end of the year is peak travel season. Flights, hotels, and tours all go up in price, and some experiences even sell out entirely. Fortunately, I’ve discovered the Trip app in recent years, which helps me score tours and packages at significantly reduced prices – I've saved up to 40% on some trips!

In this post, I’ll share 5 fall vacation activities that I think everyone should try at least once, along with smart money-saving tips when booking through Trip. Hopefully, you’ll find inspiration for your next autumn getaway!

Money-Saving Tips When Booking Fall Vacation Tours with Trip

I first discovered the Trip app two years ago when I needed to book a flight to Bangkok. I quickly became a loyal user because it offered so many local tours, unique experiences, and even flight + hotel combos at unbeatable prices. Especially during the peak travel season, Trip is always my go-to for saving money without sacrificing quality.

Wide Selection of Unique Tours

Unlike many platforms that either run out of spots or limit itineraries during high season, Trip continues to offer a wide variety of options. I’ve booked everything from classic fall foliage tours in Japan and Korea, to more tranquil local experiences like sunset boat rides on Taiwan's Sun Moon Lake and buffet dinners aboard cruises in Bangkok. The diversity in price ranges and tour types means there's something for everyone.

I remember trying to book a hike up Victoria Peak in Hong Kong on another platform only to find it sold out. Luckily, Trip still had availability – and at a lower price.

24/7 Customer Support

On one trip, my flight was delayed and I needed to reschedule a tour. I messaged Trip support at nearly 1 AM, and to my surprise, someone responded within minutes. Their customer service is incredibly professional and quick, which is especially helpful when you're abroad and need urgent assistance.

Exclusive Deals Up to 60% Off

What I love most about Trip is the "stackable" deals. The app often runs flash sales, offers promo codes from local partners, and rewards loyal users with member-only discounts. I once booked a tour that was 60% off the original price, and hotel-tour combos tend to cost far less than booking everything separately.
Tip: Check the Trip app on Tuesdays or weekends for surprise discounts.

5 Memorable Fall Vacation Spots in ASEAN

Here are five places I've traveled to during the fall season that left a lasting impression. Each destination offers its own charm, making them perfect options for those wanting to switch things up before the year ends. I booked all these tours through Trip and managed to save around 30–40% compared to listed prices.

Fall Foliage in Kyoto, Japan

Japan in autumn is famous for its fiery red maple forests. Last year, I joined a day tour in Kyoto, exploring historic temples and tree-lined paths bursting with color. We visited Arashiyama, Kiyomizu Temple, and Maruyama Park. Walking under golden and crimson leaves while sipping hot tea in the crisp air felt incredibly healing.
The original tour price was around $72, but after applying a Trip discount code, I paid only $46 – saving nearly 36%.

Maple Leaves on Nami Island, South Korea

While Japan has Momiji, Korea boasts Nami Island, famous for its golden ginkgo and maple trees. I joined a half-day tour from Seoul that included round-trip transportation, entrance tickets, and a local guide. The scenery was straight out of a fairytale, with clean air and stunning photo spots at every corner.

Boat Ride on Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan

Taiwan’s fall weather is mild, making it perfect for serene boat tours. I booked a package that included a boat ride across Sun Moon Lake, plus visits to Wenwu Temple, Lalu Island, and Xuanguang Temple. The lake was mirror-like, and the shifting leaf colors created an almost poetic landscape.
​
The listed price was nearly $38, but Trip offered it at just $24, about a 35% discount. I even received a souvenir for booking early – such a lovely touch.
Picture
Hiking Victoria Peak, Hong KongOne of the best spots to view the entire Hong Kong skyline during fall is from Victoria Peak. On my visit, the weather was perfect – blue skies, mild sunshine, and cool air. The tour included a tram ride up and access to Sky Terrace 428, which offers panoramic views especially breathtaking at sunset and nighttime.

Experiencing Loy Krathong Festival, Thailand

Held every November, Loy Krathong is one of Thailand’s most enchanting events. I joined the celebration in Chiang Mai, where thousands of sky lanterns are released at once. The tour also included lantern-making, a traditional Lanna-style dinner, and a prime festival viewing spot.

Fall Travel Tips for Peak Season

To enjoy a smooth fall vacation, especially during peak months, preparation is key. Here are a few essential tips to make your trip both enjoyable and cost-effective.

Book at Least 2 Months in Advance

Fall is a popular time for international travel, so the earlier you book flights, hotels, and tours, the better your chances of securing the best prices and availability. Trip also offers flexible cancellation policies, so booking early is low risk.

Pack for Cool Weather

In places like Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, temperatures drop significantly at night from October onward. Bring a light jacket, warm scarf, comfortable walking shoes, and maybe even a hat. Don’t forget personal items like cold medicine in case of temperature changes.

Learn About Local Culture in Advance

If you're visiting during a festival like Loy Krathong or Japan’s seasonal events, it's helpful to understand the local customs, attire, and etiquette. This helps you participate more fully and shows respect for the local culture.
​
Final Thoughts: Book Fall Vacation Tours with Up to 40% Off
Picture
​Fall is truly one of the best times to travel: ideal weather, stunning scenery, and unique cultural experiences. And with apps like Trip, you can enjoy a high-quality journey without breaking the bank.

How To Get An Asian Cruise Tour Ticket At 50% Off?

1/4/2025

​Cruise travel has long been labeled as “luxurious” and “not for average folks.” I used to think the same—until I went on a short cruise tour in Hong Kong. It was a brief trip, but it completely changed my perception. Sitting on the deck, watching the city skyline from the middle of the sea, being served like I was at a five-star resort - all without needing to plan the itinerary or hunt down tourist spots myself. It was a completely different vibe from land travel.

Trust me, once you try it, you’ll get hooked. Especially if you know how to find deals on Klook, you can enjoy a cruise tour for two at the price of one. Let me show you how!

Top Luxury Cruise Tours In Asia You Shouldn’t Miss

Here’s one thing I want you to keep in mind: cruises aren’t just for the wealthy. There are many affordable, short-day cruise tours that offer unforgettable, luxurious experiences. Below are four cruise tours that truly impressed me in terms of service, itinerary, and value for money.

Aqua Luna Cruise At Victoria Harbour - Hong Kong

Aqua Luna is one of Hong Kong’s most iconic wooden cruise boats, often used for sunset sightseeing trips across Victoria Harbour. The trip lasts around 45 minutes and departs from the Tsim Sha Tsui pier. You get to sit back and soak in the glittering skyline of the city as night falls.

Included in the package is a complimentary cocktail or mocktail, along with attentive onboard service. The ambiance is super chill, with soft lighting and music—perfect for couples or solo travelers seeking serenity. The original price is about $40 per person, but on Klook, it drops to only $24 - a 40% saving!

Sun Moon Lake Cruise - Taiwan

Sun Moon Lake is one of Taiwan’s most famous destinations, and a boat tour on the lake lets you admire its beauty from a fresh perspective. The cruise makes stops at several scenic spots including Wenwu Temple, Lalu Island, and Xuanguang Temple. Throughout the trip, you’ll receive free water, a face mask, and English-speaking guide services.
​
The lake itself is peaceful, misty, and utterly poetic. All you have to do is hop on, relax, and enjoy. The experience usually costs $35 per person, but on Klook, you can book it for just $21.
Picture

Chao Phraya Dinner Cruise - Thailand


The Chao Phraya River is a spiritual icon of Thailand, and dining on a cruise along it is an unforgettable experience. This two-hour tour glides past landmarks like Wat Arun, the Grand Palace, and Asiatique Night Market.

During the trip, guests enjoy a lavish international buffet, live music, and a romantic riverside atmosphere. My spouse and I did this tour on a pleasant April evening. We sat outdoors under the stars, feeling the breeze while dining - watching the city lights reflect on the water. It was worth every cent. The best part? We paid only around $55 for the whole experience.

Olympus Day Cruise In Ha Long Bay - Vietnam

Among all day cruises available in Vietnam, Olympus Day Cruise stands out as the most worthwhile. The tour lasts 6 - 8 hours and includes pick-up from central Hanoi. It covers top spots like Sung Sot Cave, Luon Cave, floating villages, and offers kayaking.
​
The seafood buffet onboard is fresh and plentiful, and a tour guide accompanies you the entire time. Bonus points for the clean boat, comfortable seating, and professional transfer service. The original price is around $80 per person, but Klook offers it for just $44 - a 45% discount!

How To Snag Shockingly Cheap Cruise Tour Tickets

I discovered Klook when I randomly stumbled upon a review of the Chao Phraya dinner cruise. At the time, I was planning a trip to Thailand and bookmarked it for future reference. To my surprise, I uncovered a treasure trove of low-cost tours that didn’t compromise on quality. If you’re considering a cruise but worried about the price, these three tips will save you a ton:

Official Partner Of Major Cruise Operators: Better Prices

Compared to buying tickets directly at the pier, booking via Klook is significantly cheaper—and safer too, since you won’t have to worry about sold-out spots. Klook is an official partner with many cruise lines, so it gets preferential pricing. Some tours cost only 70% of the pier price, plus no queuing or cancellations.

Exclusive Member Discounts Up To 60%

Just create a free Klook account and you’ll receive a welcome discount code. On top of that, there are regular seasonal promotions, country-specific deals, and loyal member rewards. I once booked a Ha Long Bay cruise and got 60% off - that savings alone could buy you another buffet meal!

Multiple Price Ranges For Different Needs

Not every cruise is five-star with a high-end price tag. On Klook, you can filter tours by price range, duration, and user ratings. This makes it super easy to find something that fits your budget without sacrificing quality. Some even offer bundled deals with meals and transportation that are cheaper than booking separately.

Key Things To Know Before Booking A Cruise Tour

A cruise experience becomes even better with proper preparation. Here are three crucial tips to ensure a smooth journey. Many first-timers overlook these, especially the first one - so take notes!

Double-Check The Itinerary

Each tour has a unique pick-up point and schedule. Many travelers miss their trip because they didn’t read carefully or went to the wrong pier. Klook usually provides maps and clear illustrations—make sure to review and save them ahead of time.
Also, pay attention to what’s included in the tour: Are meals provided? Is transportation included? Are there any sightseeing stops?

Check The Weather Forecast

Cruise tours are outdoor activities, so weather plays a big role. It’s best to monitor the forecast at least three days in advance. Some tours offer flexible cancellation or rescheduling policies, so don’t hesitate to contact support if the weather looks bad.

Book At Least One Month In Advance

Popular tours or weekend slots sell out quickly. If you want a prime seat - like an upper-deck table or a romantic couple seat—book at least a month ahead. This also gives you more time to hunt for deals and apply discount codes.

Book A Cruise Tour With Family Now: A Luxury Experience At A Budget Price
Picture
If you’re looking for a “premium” travel experience that doesn’t break the bank, a cruise tour is the perfect choice. Even a short trip can help you slow down, breathe, and truly savor the moment.
And remember - it only takes a few taps: open Klook, choose your destination, book your tour. That’s it. Such a small effort for a potentially life-long memory. Download the Klook app today, pick your favorite cruise tour, and grab your tickets now to catch the hottest deals before they’re gone!

As someone passionate about fitness, I once believed the gym was my true love. But after countless sessions trapped within four walls, I started to feel stuck. Everything changed one weekend when a friend invited me on an adventure travel tour. Out of curiosity, I joined - and that trip opened up a whole new world: a chance to move, push my limits, and explore breathtaking natural landscapes.

After 3 years of roaming around Asia, Taiwan and Hong Kong have become my top favorite destinations. Both countries offer rich natural beauty and a variety of outdoor activities - from trekking and hot springs to scenic views and cultural discovery. Today, I’m sharing 4 unforgettable places that I highly recommend for adventure lovers, along with smart budget tips - including how I save up to 50% on flights using Klook.

Klook App – A Must-Have App For Every Traveler

For outdoor enthusiasts like me, Klook is no longer a stranger. I've relied on this app for years - from my solo trips to group adventures. It’s more than just a platform to book attraction tickets. Klook offers everything from flights, hotels, local tours, transport, and even eSIMs - often with unbeatable deals.

I’ve compared many platforms, and Klook consistently wins in both price and convenience. Thanks to the savings - sometimes up to 50% on flights - I’ve been able to fund even more exciting trips.

Wide Range Of Unique Tours And Adventure Destinations

What I love about Klook is the vast database of experiences and tours. From mainstream attractions to off-the-beaten-path adventures, the app covers it all. One of the best features is its personalized recommendations - just enter your destination and interests, and Klook curates a trip that suits your style.

Trusted Partners With Airlines And Hotels

Every time I’ve booked with Klook, I’ve received quality service from reputable providers. I once booked a flight + hotel combo and was impressed with how clean, comfortable, and true-to-description the hotel was. With clear cancellation policies, exclusive perks like free airport transfers, and strong brand partnerships, Klook offers peace of mind at a great price.

Exclusive Member Deals Up To 60% Off

Signing up is free - and it unlocks a treasure trove of deals. I once scored 60% off a flight and 40% off a 4-star hotel, plus bonus perks like free breakfast or amusement park tickets. Whenever I see that “Member Exclusive” banner, I jump on the deal right away.

Top 4 Adventure Travel Destinations To Experience At Least Once In Your Life

​
Tired of lounging poolside and doing nothing all vacation long? These four destinations will inspire you to pack your backpack and hit the trail. From rugged gorges to lush hills, each location offers a unique journey - both physically and mentally.
Picture
Taroko Gorge – Taiwan

This is one of Taiwan’s most iconic trekking spots. Taroko impresses with its towering cliffs, hidden waterfalls, and forest trails. Each step feels like therapy - fresh air, the sound of water, and stunning views surround you.

Pro tip: Choose a guided trekking tour via Klook - you'll get a knowledgeable local guide and travel insurance included. I only paid around $20 USD, and the experience was absolutely priceless.

Yangmingshan National Park – Taiwan

If you’re seeking a blend of nature and relaxation, Yangmingshan is ideal. I enjoyed scenic hikes across silver grass fields and ended my day soaking in a natural hot spring - all surrounded by cool mountain air.

Even better, I booked a 4-star hotel through Klook and received 3 complimentary spa sessions. After a day of hiking, getting pampered like that? Totally worth it.

Dragon’s Back Trail – Hong Kong

Regularly listed among Asia’s best trekking routes, Dragon’s Back offers panoramic views of Shek O Bay and Big Wave Bay. The trail is beginner-friendly but delivers stunning scenery the entire way.

My first Klook booking was a roundtrip flight from Vietnam to Hong Kong - only $70 USD! I was a bit skeptical about the price, but the service was excellent, with free cancellation for up to 24 hours. Highly recommended if you’re planning a spontaneous trip.

Tai O Fishing Village – Hong Kong

This hidden gem offers both natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. I loved drifting through the old fishing village by boat, sampling fresh seafood, and admiring the stilt houses. Every corner felt like a postcard.

I booked a boat tour with lunch at a local restaurant on Klook for under $15 USD. The local guide shared stories about Tai O’s fishing culture, making the experience even more memorable.

Tips To Make Your Adventure Travel Experience Even Better


Adventure trips are nothing like regular vacations - they demand better planning and preparation. Here are some practical tips I’ve learned from years of exploring the great outdoors.

Stay Close To The Adventure Sites

Nature spots are often far from city centers. If you don’t book accommodation nearby, you'll waste time and energy commuting - especially when you're exhausted from hiking all day. Once, I had to take a 40-minute taxi ride back to my hotel, and it completely drained me.

Klook makes it easy to find hotels near your activity area, with real photos and helpful reviews so you know exactly what to expect.

Book Transportation In Advance

Public transport isn’t always available in remote natural areas. If you don’t plan ahead, you may end up paying high prices for last-minute rides or miss your activity slot altogether.

Klook offers affordable shuttle services - sometimes half the price of local taxis. You can choose your pickup time, location, and some packages even include Vietnamese-speaking guides, which was a huge plus for me.

Wear The Right Shoes And Clothes

Trekking and outdoor exploration require proper gear. I always bring sneakers with good grip, moisture-wicking shirts, and a hat for sun protection. If you're visiting high-altitude or hot spring areas, a light jacket is a must.

Always check the weather forecast - one unexpected downpour can quickly ruin your whole experience.
