Things to do in Hualien

We booked a pickup service, and the driver arrived early at the hotel to pick us up. Upon arrival, he guided us to collect our boat tickets and then to a small classroom for a briefing. After the briefing, we set off. On the boat, the guide continuously shared information and taught us methods to alleviate seasickness. Seeing the dolphins was truly breathtaking; we marveled at the wonders of nature. The dolphins swimming around the boat were incredibly impressive. The entire experience, from boarding to disembarking, lasted about 1.5 hours and was absolutely worthwhile.

An absolutely fantastic experience!!! 100 points!! The boat was very comfortable and clean! And my mom and I didn't get seasick! Others did, haha! Seeing the ocean was truly amazing! You definitely have to choose this boat; it's a great experience, and they even provide pickup and drop-off, which is very thoughtful. I was originally worried about getting sick, even though I wore anti-nausea acupressure patches, but I guess I forgot all about it because I was in such a good mood!!!! The dolphins were super cute and there were so many of them!!!! The color of the ocean was an unparalleled blue!!! Instructor: Superb Location: Excellent Safety: Excellent Equipment: Top-notch Experience: Superb 👍🏻

The weather was nice that day, and the waves were relatively calm. We brought our two kids (ages 4 and 6), and the four of us took a boat ride together. We took the 13:30 boat. Hualien is very sunny, and the ocean was a deep, super-gorgeous blue. I initially thought the kids would not be able to stand the heat, but because they were so excited, they sat at the bow of the boat for the entire hour and a half, enjoying the best view. We were also very lucky on this trip and saw lots of dolphins, which had us gasping in amazement. My 4-year-old daughter even said, "Mom, I feel so happy!" This made me feel that the trip was totally worth it!!

We had an incredible day exploring Taroko Gorge with Jimmy! What made the tour stand out was his exceptional pacing—he organized the schedule so seamlessly that we got to see all the major highlights without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed. ​On top of that, Jimmy knew fantastic bonus photo spots away from the usual crowds that we never would have found on our own. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and kept the energy great all day long. If you’re visiting Taroko Gorge, I highly recommend booking with Jimmy for a stress-free and memorable experience!

Although we were slightly dissatisfied with the travel agency adjusting the whale-watching time without notice, the trip overall was quite satisfactory. The group meals were optional with no compulsory participation. The overall itinerary was reasonably planned, covering all the must-see sights without any regrets. Also, don't eat too much before whale watching, because being out on the choppy sea for two hours made many people in our group throw up. The Qingshui Cliff was definitely the highlight of this trip and a must-see in this lifetime!

Our guide on 15 Aug 2026 was amazing! Meeting point was clear, guide was understanding when we wanted to get breakfast before the tour. He brought us to places that weren’t even on the itinerary, making sure that we got full use of his time and service during the duration of the tour. There were no hidden charges in admission fees, he was happy to take pictures for us, advise on choices for lunch and snack locations. He was so sweet, funny and engaging too! Kept checking if all of us had understood his instructions on meetup times so that we won’t be lost. I’ve been on many Klook tours but this is the only one I’m really glad to have booked!! 10/10 would recommend and book again for sure :)

Although the weather was scorching hot, the staff were friendly and enthusiastic, making the experience incredibly infectious! The park's performances were rich and spectacular, especially the "Attack on Water EDM Party." If you plan to get wet, remember to bring extra clothes to change into! The mermaid show, which required an additional fee, featured graceful poses and is highly recommended as an add-on.The only downside was that the escalators were out of service, which is quite unacceptable given the ticket price. Aside from this hardware flaw, the software and activity experience were still quite impressive!

Fantastic! As soon as we headed out to sea, we saw pods of dolphins chasing the boat—so cute! They kept jumping out of the water to say hello 🤭🤭🤭 Both adults and kids had a wonderful time ❤️ The staff members were very humorous and attentive 👍🏻👍🏻

After purchasing tickets online, exchange them for boat tickets and confirm your boat schedule at the counter next to the Hualien Promisedland Resort's 7-Eleven entrance building. Boarding point #1 is conveniently located near the entrance building, making it quick and easy! The electric yacht offers a quiet and comfortable ride, and the onboard guide's humorous and detailed explanations were truly impressive. They even pause at special spots to allow visitors to take photos. This time, we saw the lush green lake scenery of summer and the magnificent, continuous 'Guardian Mountain.' I'm looking forward to seeing the beautiful golden-orange bald cypress trees in autumn! Highly recommended!
